Thought Carlos offered very little last night , miloudi isn't a winger , not going to be nagarive about him, thought he was unlucky with a few decisions against him. Thought houghton looked really lively when moved to 13 , looked dangerous been first receiver and having to make decisions . Don't understand what people see in masi , seems to go backwards more than forwards, happy with the lines lane runs , but our bench needs some impact rapid , Bowden will help if we can get him fit. Really pleasing seeing Shaul get plenty of ball , long may that continue , he's class and we need to play to his strengths . Where have all the young speedy wingers gone !! Can't tenner the last time we gave a young kid with lightning pace a chance ! Reece Lyne ha, probably as been , but none spring to mind

It was a team effort that cost us that game , no individual in my opinion

So you did , my bad . We need to keep Kelly . We need has many class players as possible, our squad is weak enough as it is . Oloughlin has picked his far few injuries himself for Wigan , but they don’t just get rid of him at the first chance. . To get the right players next season , we may have to pay some fees . Pearson needs to get his cheque book out soon . If it means backing Radford or someone else , it needs doing or he’ll lose some fans . We don’t need 7/8 players like some have mentioned. 4/5 are needed though .

Exactly that was my point as Griffin did not cost us the game.

He copped some flack last season and rightly so but he is certainly not one that needs criticising currently as he is way down on that list for mine.

Taylor got the hairdryer treatment for his defence in the run up to that try

£100k plus for Watts but how much of that did AP invest back into the squad? Not sure Adam wants to spend now

The biggest thing we need is confidence, unfortunately the only way I see that happening is with a new coach.

Very hard to find 5 overseas quality players, Leeds (On paper)Saints have managed to bring in 3 and we did that in 2016, so if we could bring in 2 overseas forwards and a centre and sign an English forward like Josh Jones and a winger then I'd be happy, but we need at least 3/4 upgraded on those I've mentioned.

Could do with signing Thompson from Saints, what a player but would need a big investment

Whatever issues there were with Watts, a resolution should have been found somehow. Can’t believe it wasn’t possible.

Garbut was available! If we’d got him alongside Taylor then that would have been something. And a true replacement for Watts.

releasing watts was one of the worst decisions hull have ever made.its decisions like that over the years that have prevented hull ever consolidating any success we have had.

He wasn’t released, he was sold disaplinary reasons that have never been revealed by the club but guessed at by keyboard warriors. Dragging Watts’ leaving the club is really old news.

Said exactly the same on here when it happened,what an idiotic decision to sack our best forward mid season.Like you i said we always dismantle our side and never build on success.What did Watts do to deserve the sack,if it was that bad why was it kept secret.We looked good with Ellis, Fonua, Pritchard and Watts but they have not been replaced with like for like.We need leadership on and off the field and nothing seems to have changed from last season

how long are people gonna bang on about watts? hes gone and had to if what most say are true, might as well start talking about paul cooke again, or shaun Briscoe, ellis is the one we miss imo, a true leader,

Unfortunately with Taylor a main player in our team it wasnt possible.
I have posted before that this all kicked off in Australia

It's not old news though, is it, because we are still suffering the consequences.

Of course it’s old news and has nothing to do with here and now. The fact we didn’t recruit new faces is the problem here and now.

I said before the oz trip it was a bad move by the club. If we lost watts due to an incident there then it was monumentally disastrous

I cannot understand why Radford doesnt pick Brad Fash, he is gonna be the best prop in the world in a few years. Total wrecking bull like O'Meley, he is a fantastic prop, the 2nd best prop in the city. Cannot understand why he isnt been played.

Like Mtongogo- Similar to Petero Civoniciva in his hard running, the front row looks good for F.C if they continue in the way they are playing.

Top post.
Did it take you long?

currently i'm seeing parallels with the way the 2005/6 team was slowly dismantled. then we lost swain, cooke, mcmenemy, chester, briscoe and didn't replace like for like. we eneted an extended period of mediocrity (albeit the disastrous decision to sack sharp didn't help matters). we have lost fonua, ellis, watts and replaced none of them like for like
