I think you might have a point both hull teams are way off been a top 4 team and unless someone can put a lot of money into any of our 2 hull teams it might be like this for a while playing for 8th each season is that what fans from hull and rovers want

A debate that's been had and probably done to death, but for me Hulls one usp is the two teams and the inner city rivalry. One team in hull would probably be on a par with which ever team was doing best and the crowds would be very similar fcs crowds. A lot of the interest in the game within hull is down to the rivalry element as well. Really think one team would fast stop being interesting. It's just a shame we aren't both up there challenging, that would give us the biggest crowds in the league.

Indeed and I do agree with this also, and I personally don't want one team. All I see though is mediocrity in the short and medium term. Both our crowds appear to be on the wane, and it is pretty depressing.

Yeah me too. He needs more time to bed in, so to speak. Lots of 'fans' need to watch the game properly and see what he actually does in defense and attack.

Just watched the match again against wigan and keating who has took plenty of stick this season,showed us his best form.His kicks were all on the money and 20 odd tackles and plenty of hard work, IMO other than chan who was outstanding he was the next best player on the pitch.Lets hope his form continues on the up. Any opinions ?

Josh Hodgson got m.o.m on sky

Do you have a point?

Costigan was my man of the match

Surprised at that although it always looks different at the match,than on the box.
IMO
Chan
Keating
Hodgson
Horne.
Costigan

No good slotting in good performances when the season is done. He needs to be on the money from the off. Nobody give me this 'he has to settle' crap either. he has come from a superior league and is still playing in his favourite role.

The season isnt done just yet beat hull and cats we could be 7th,and as for not not needing time to bed in,burns was ordinary a lot of last season,and been superb this season,which puts holes in your theory.

This season is done. we could be 7th? wow. Burns showed he could come good behind a scrum half in Dobson who ran everything. Scrum half is scrum half. No holes in my assessment.

I agree with you. Walsh at saints didn't need time when he put a saints top on at the beginning of the season. Difference is, he is a quality player. Keating is not. One half decent game won't change my opinion.

So your saying because burns was ordinary last season that means he is not quality unlike walsh,some gell straight away,some dont and take time. I agree keatings been poor this season,but since chesters took over,he seems to be playing in a different role not just laying the ball off all the time. Trust me if burns goes it will take the guts out of rovers,whether he didnt get into his stride last season or not. IMO a better halfback than dobbo and more important,probably the most influential halfback in s/l.

Your right. Burns was average last year. But Keating has on the whole been bloody awful. That there is the difference.
