I am surprised that no one has commented on Albert Kelly's two sensational 100 metre tries against "the champions." To do that twice in seven minutes is truly amazing!

Yeah incredible. He only just outpaced Jon wilkin

Oh dear

He did. I'm not been funny or anything but Saints played terrible and you only just won. Kelly was shocking in defence and hardly made any ground on wilkin who is not very quick at all.

You Hull fans.

John Wilkin loves poetry and was reciting Yeats to Albert Kelly while they ran. That was so funny and Kelly was laughing so hard that he could hardly outpace Wilkin -- but he did.

That's [u[size=150JON[/size[/u Wilkin. I wouldn't want you putting out stuff that's incorrect.

The use of "John" is poetic licence.

Shelley you realise that.

Its enough to drive Oscar wild.

I didn't think you'd reply Sassoon.

You often speak sense. You say a lot of Wordsworth listening to.

That's Owen to his education.

That's the 3rd time this season that a team has saved it's worst performance for when they play at Craven Park. What a strange (and fortuitous) coincidence.

BTW, Kelly jogged that last 50 metres to save his legs for the derby.

I feel we are the better team,but as in the past derbies are difficult to predict.We should win,with your injuries as well,but in answer to your question,never confident in derbies.

Yes Albert only made 29 tackles that is not the sort of display you expect from a scrum half

Kelly is rubbish,I wish we'd paid £100,000 for sneyd who is fantastic.

You do yourself a disservice son, that's the funniest post I have seen on here in a long time. You are right about Saints being terrible though, every team we beat are terrible. I do hope you are really, really terrible on Thursday.

They're not consistent enough to be that terrible this week.

Well thats a guaranteed 2 points for FC on Monday if Saints are indeed as poor as is been made out.

We certainly have more chance now that you have been mean to them and beat them up. You big bullies.



We will still get beat though in another battling performance.

On a serious note, Kelly is doing way, way too much defending. He's very enthusiastic and is not as bad in the tackle as some people are saying but he is very small.

He should be defending on the wing for tackles one to three/four depending on field position. He's too important in attack for him to be wasting his energy tussling with second rowers.

I was surprised when i watched the game back that brian Carney mentioned that Kelly played a lot of his junior rugby in the forwards and perhaps likes getting stuck in with a lot of tackles

He did and I think he needs protecting from himself, I don't want to see an energetic half back like Kelly making or being involved in more than about a dozen tackles a game.

Kelly should be all about broken field running and sniping out opportunities, we've got players like McCarthy and Donaldson to do the donkey work, which is equally valuable and they do it better.

Jordan cox is our best player for donkey work, just needs to cut out the horse play!!!!

Agreed, we said at the game on Friday that Kelly's energetic and off the cuff play even sucks campo in at times and he starts throwing cut out passes and off loads i was kind of hoping Campos calm calculated play would rub off on Kelly but seems to be the other way round, being 24-12 up and right in front of the sticks and campo goes wide being a prime example
