We will have to disagree there. Matty is a good kid and I really feel for him. This long term injury came at exactly the wrong time for him as he could have really developed at full back while we dabble at Championship level. I suspect we only went back in for Quinlan due to Marsh's injury.
The jury is out on Abdul but let's not kid ourselves that Marsh is in any way the answer.

Whilst I agree with most of your assessments the fact that our squad at this point has slightly less quality than 2016 is largely irrelevant. Qualification for the middle 8s is a formality – the squad Sheens has assembled is so far ahead of the other teams it’s laughable and is much better than we could have expected. But to that point whilst it will be gratifying to win probably every round, the championship has been exposed by recent events as a joke “competition” which the RFL need to address. Enjoying the humiliation of part time teams whilst getting bladdered might be how some supporters want to spend their weekends but to me watching a close contest of high quality is more important.
Anyway what people need to digest is that our success in promotion depends on two factors:
1 Injuries. I would hope and expect that Sheens has had cash for strengthening the physio and conditioning side of things after the harsh lessons last season. Little point in having Sheens, Smith and Peacock all in highly paid senior jobs if we are not ensuring the players get basics like correct rehab and massage from a well qualified sports science department.
2 How we (and other teams including current Super League clubs) strengthen mid season. With a low number of players being available mid year there seems to be a naive assumption we will be at the front of the queue and the only ones to benefit from this. Have Widnes spent Brown’s salary yet as an example? Them and other likely candidates for middle 8s will of course also be holding cash back and able to juggle quota spots as they see necessary to tackle the business end. Leigh have full experience of this.
I feel reasonably confident we will get promoted because Sheens has done some very good business already which shows his pulling power, but there are very real risks that if we continue to suffer more than our fair share of injuries (and continue to simply blame “bad luck”) and only strengthen to the same extent as our super league rivals and not more so, that we could remain where we are.

MIKE SMITH- THE BEST CENTRE HULL HAS EVER MADE!: |
|
| whatever happens Abdul in my eyes will only be here for 1 year as he has signed a long term deal with his parent club, so as long as he can help us achieve promotion he can clean the toilets , as don't class him as long term ,if we do go up we would be looking for a better player than him as it stands now . quinlan is a very good half back who could deputise should ellis or Abdul fall short

Disagree??? the kid is no where near as the halves we have signed, Sheens is no mug, and soon saw him in training and realised he is not a half back. To be fair to the kid he is not even a full back, why the hell we gave the kid a 4 year deal.
If he had anything about him, then a super league team would have snapped him up for peanuts when we went down.
Can someone please bookmark this page and rub it right in my face when he signs for a team in the super league.

| Again agree with zooks post. So we are looking at what bottom 4: of superleague will be and who we can finish above or pick of in mpg? Widnes Leigh Salford wakey will be most people's picks I'd expect?I have soft spot for wakey and think they have signed well and I wouldn't be surprised if they went well.hudds look vulnerable still.still think places 6-9 are wide open.cas if stay fit look top 4. I think If we come up its at Widnes or hudds expense..Leigh are a puzzle. Hope they enjoy it

| It's fairly obvious Craig hates Hull and wants nothing to do with us, you are letting your hatred blinker your view on Abdul, he has had some excellent games for Hull against a lot better teams than you will play next year and I feel with a run he will only get better.
Thought he played really well in the Derby and set up or was involved with most of try's.
I'd love to see Craig's face if Abdul's scores the winning try in the MPG.

My tip for bottom 3 is Leeds, why? because their spine is 1 year older, they have lost segayaro and signed a poor replacement and have signed no one of any importance. I really think that Leeds are going to go through a few years of redevelopment like they did years ago (pre sinfield,peacock,burrow etc) looking at their squad makes me think that we could beat them at any time. the acid test will be when they suffer injuries as they are relying on youth this season.

| Don't see how anyone can rate kebab over Marsh on last season's respective performances.one played in a team going backwards with little space and time.one was a loose forward who was playing in a team in right place at right time and managed to only win one trophy out of 3 that was gift wrapped.

Can see why you reach that conclusion. He may play well at this level but I stand by my belief he is no better than what we have. I will go on record now just because I am that blinkered.i don't want any hull player in our colours I detest him and you and if roles were reversed if most of you were honest you would feel same. Difference is I will say it. you. him go suck your own plums

Abdul never played loose forward for us, always at Halfback.
Gift wrapped, you are so bitter, only managed one trophy this is from a supporter of a club who havent won any major trophy for 30 years, you would give your right arm to achieve what we did last year.
