Oh dear, giddy gateshull fans getting all excited...

he kicked well
+ what?

Seriously how can you have watched him tonight and been happy?

Serious question.

In the first 2 games, our ball control has been poor and JM now needs to find a front row formula and then our half-backs will improve.

Anyway, Horne & Thorman are one of the est half-back pairings in the league, but I don't spend my time on the FC board telling you that...

See above.

I'm afraid you guys can't accept the fact how your team is so I'd rather stay on here and discuss my team ya see.

dobson i thought just got a little bit exited at times he knew that his side had an overlap on the side he was attacking and passing the ball to.
when your playing leeds you do get a little bit exited when you have them on the ropes.

although his kicking display tonight was top draw he might be the best in play kicker in the super league this year.

although dobsen was at first reciever and playing the ball alot tonight whereas i think he would do better getting involved a little bit more off reciever and let cooke do a bit more of it and play fisher from the start.

hull kr though look a good side and a play off place looks a good bet for you this season.

if your not happy with dobson you could always send him down to halifax on a season long loan we could use him.

Fair point, but that is an opinion on one game against the world champions.

Dobson and Cooke will prove their class throughout the season.

Where did I mention MY team? Obsessed.

We will just take a game at a time matey thanks for the concern.

I'm surprised that Newton's still being tolerated as much as he is. His defence is fairly lazy in a lot of respects (he seems desperate to get to the outside, even when he's made the tackle he seems as though he wants to get outside the makers and A defenders) and he doesn't add a lot of attacking flair. He was a decent-ish player for Melbourne, but I haven't seen that effort since he's been over here and that type of effort would only bring him up to a good standard, not what's required of a highly paid player at a team hoping to win the comp.

Didnt see him last night. Thought Galea looked very good in defence though. Newton was very very average.

I'm afraid I agree re: Newton, although he did pick up an injury and could be doubtful for next week. He throws some wild passes and offloads at times, but I'm still glad we have him in our squad as he is an overall excellent player.

maybe there bench was a little light but so was ours.
they had webb, Burrow, Buderas and Ali Lautiti out, who else???
we had Vella, Gene and Walker out too, so we also were a little light i think youll find.
