You mentioned Hull and no i'm not, it's a public RL forum, and I probably offer more insight to this thread than you do, for a start I don't write like a 7 year, but thanks, sweet cheeks.

That wasn't my point but I see why you interpreted as that. You as in dave k seem a balanced poster .iv been on gin and ale again so being umbongoed I am immune from scorn.i don't detest you.i think you are like a few of my fc pals and a rugby man.but I maintain if roles were reversed you wouldn't want a kr affiliated player in fc colours. Sometimes words on a forum are just bollox

I mentioned hull as kebab is a hull player.. I again stand by my post that if roles reversed sone of your brethren wouldn't welcome a robin in your ranks. He is a project and I fail to see why he is ours to bring on

Fair enough, no problems and I apologise for my above comment about your writing.

I have a rule that I avoid posting on here and social media when drinking, I hope you enjoy your evening.

Would it be different Craig, if Abdul signed permanent, is it because he is still a Hull player that upsets you?

Alan Sugar stylee

My initial answer is yes...then I come back to my assertion he is not a good player.and I don't rate him.saying that I cheered crossman Mika and Clinton .I keep saying I hope to be proved wrong and this is one that I may have egg on face with .I'd like to think I'd man up and apologise if proven to be talking rot

I'm sure you would craig hkr, but in the meantime, you're absolutely hilarious in how ridiculous you are.

My favourite quote is "Feck you, go suck your own plums".

Genuinely marvellous stuff.

But is the subject of this thread.

Top level playing experience in the squad has been reduced but will hopefully be addressed mid season. On average, skill level is about the same or a little less (as well as some skillful players, some lemons have also left). Enthusiasm and hunger level has increased. Quite a few of the squad last season appeared disinterested or coasting - disappointingly some were the same one's who were classed as experienced or skillful.

With Bradford rebuilding, their team is unlikely to be as competitive as last season and they were to be our greatest threat. That said, they'll be out to prove a point this season.

I predicted the bottom 4 of SL before for 2017, and not a lot has changed my mind - Widnes, Salford, Huddersfield and either Wakey or Leigh. Hudds were shakey last season and not done much inbetween.

Although they have no chance of making it into Super League, never write off London. Their squad seems quite good on paper. However they shouldn't really stand in our way with our squad.

My prediction for bottom of SL and top of Championship is..

Leeds
Widnes
Leigh
Salford

and

Hull KR
London
Fev
Tolouse/Bradford if they didn't have the -12

Agree with this Frankie.

I've never been a fan of Marsh other than of his potential. He's simply not creative enough in the halves and he is too quiet vocally. He has never delivered a performance in our first team that's had my bum crease with excitement. That said, more experience and game time in future and things might be different.

Which brings me neatly on to Abdull. Currently he is at the same "bags of potential" career stage as Matty Marsh. More experience and game time required and he will be a diamond, which is exactly the raison d'etre for him joining us on loan. Unlike Marsh, Abdull is vocal and has a more varied kicking game, so I have him ahead on points.

You can only comment on reality to date and Jordan Abdull and Jamie Ellis went well in the halves for us at Hull last time out.

The acid test will be Leeds this week. They are weak in the halves and McGuire and Burrow are getting on a bit.

If I had to make a prediction as to the bottom 4 in SL in 2017 at this preseason stage, I would say Huddersfield, Salford, Widnes and one of either Leigh or Leeds.

Did no one watch the Derby at their place last year? Abdull was one of if not the best player on the pitch. I think some people are blinkered because of who his parent club are.
