As said, I don't think you can name 4 clubs with better squads than us. It takes more than the props to roll a pack and we will not struggle to make metres with our pack and outside backs. The main area we were exposed last year was tactically, which I'm hopeful we are addressing with these new coaches.

I think Saints, Warrington and Wigan have better squads and ours is on a par with Catalans, Castleford, Wakefield and Hull KR.

Is that Hull KRs 1986 squad?

HKR ?

Is this you getting your excuses in early?

Squad wise we are there right up at the top now, best recruitment out of anyone in SL, you couldn't name a team that has been more active recruiting the quality we have.

To put us on a par with Cas, Cats, Wakey and Rovers is ridiculous and embarrassing even by your excuse making standards.

If we fail it won't be down to recruitment.

Such a nastiness and unnecessary aggression. Take care, that could ome back and find you. Hope for the best, expect the worst, take what cones with good grace. x

No nastiness or aggression just sheer disbelief.

"Ridiculous and embarrassing even by your standards". It's just a different opinion. Try and accept it. You advocate that as I recall.

That’s not even close to been true, you’ve already proved my point on this thread alone.

Nice offload amongst many for the second try and a bit of kicking thrown in as well.

Paul Cooke grubber



Injured now though, how predictable.

https://twitter.com/SuperLeague/status/ ... 3362728962 I know it's just a few highlights, but can't wait to see this one back in the fold. Bit of sparkle.

Quality, enjoyed that. Nice seeing some enthusiasm in the black and white

https://twitter.com/hullfcofficial/stat ... 26823?s=19 Some Ma'u highlights. Seems like his injury last week wasn't too bad as he's names in the Tonga squad for the weekend.

Never saw any report of him being injured but the team lists are out and he is there in a team with only one change,at half back, from the team that started against England. Noted he played on the left edge to accommodate Ben Murdoch-Masila who prefers the right edge. Linked up well with Lolohea although on one occasion he only had to take a pass and fall over the line but dropped it. Played for Parramatta on the right edge where he combined well with Moses.

Looking forward to seeing him in a bigger challenge against the Aussie pack. In the historic match in Auckland a year ago Aus beat them 34-16 so Tonga will be wanting to avenge that result.

He looks happy.

Have Tonga finished now - ie can Ma'u get on the sun lounger?

Yes. In the 2019 Oceanic Cup series Tonga finished 3rd in Pool A behind Australia and NZ. Only I match left to play in Pool B between Fiji and PNG next Saturday before the 2nd NZ v Gt Britain game.

Thanks. Will be a fair few missing from pre season training tomorrow with international duties delaying their break but still 3 months to go until we start so no big deal.

Was an enjoyable watch.
Can't he have a word with Taumalolo to come and play loose man for us.


We would do the treble.
