I couldn't care less ......Recruitment is the deciding factor in which a team will be successful or not.

A team comprising of the best players will always be more successful regardless of who the coach is ......Radford and McDermott are testament to that.

It's looked like the middle 8s for us since we [ilost[/i to Wakefield. Nowt to do with other results tbh - 11 points from 17 games is always going to leave you looking up at most of the league.

On the upside, a win tonight and we're chasing (relying on a slump from) any one of three teams. Lose and it really is a balance of holding on for 4 home games in the 8s and resting battered bodies for games that matter more.

I like this system of top 8s & middle 8s, it makes the teams still have something to play for, I would like to see wooden spoon winner go down though, that would be funny especially if the table stayed the way it is now.

Do you agree with your coaches view that the top 8 should have their points reset after round 23?

There are a growing number of critics of the current system. Only this afternoon did I read a blog about the growing gap between 4 & 5, and the one between 8 & 9 essentially rendering the competition sterile with over 3 months to go.

I can't see it lasting beyond 2017.

I don't know tbf, as I see finishing top should give you an advantage, the gap is very noticeable but that's due to recruiting for some clubs, you've had the spine of the team unavailable all season & that's what's done you in, we've had no injuries & made us contenders, Leeds have lost key personnel with transition going on with youth, cas,Widnes started like a house on fire,& both have lost consistency, it's been a strange season so far, who knows what can happen from now, & that's the exciting thing for me, no more are the days when you can look at fixtures & see an easy win.

I'd be fine with it. I doubt you'd see any different team in the top 4 this year if the points are reset.

Hopefully, Jake! .......Motu Tony has been your best recruitment so far ......The respect and influence he has within the rugby league world has brought fantastic players to your club and given your club such a depth of talent regarding your starting 17 and given you a depth of talent regarding your entire squad .......Whereas our "Motu Tony" (As in Peacock) brought us Clarkson as our major signing last year who is yet to break a tackle this year, and now we have just announced Scruton as a signing for next year, a prop who is just another workhorse and is the kind of average player that all the clubs pass among themselves to make up the numbers ......Minns is probably the only half decent signing Peacock has brought to the club so far, but, in the grand scheme of things, he is only as good as your Logan who is a reserve player within your team at best ......Hopefully our five year plan consists more of just signing championship players.

Would I swap Peacock for Tony? .....Damn right I would!!!!

Any all of your strength and conditioning team have ex leeds connections.....

From a layman's point of view, motu tony seems Hull FC centric whilst jamie peacock seems jamie peacock centric

Back in 2014, Hull were recruiting the likes of Colbon and Carvell, so I'm happy to give Peacock more time. Not that Hull's rubbish 2014 excuses our rubbish 2016.

Whether Peacock ends up being seen as determined or stubborn could come down to the bounce of a ball.

My guess is that our prospective coach will be waiting to see what league we are in before before committing
