The try's down Johnston wing at Salford, looked like Atkins and Johnston were stranded on there own .No other Wakey player any way near. We seemed to cover a lot better on other wing but think this was more to do with Jowitt than planing by the Coach

There was nobody pushing out on that side of the field, which eventually leads to a 2 on one against Johnstone or that he has to gamble and try and close down the last but one attacking player, which, if unsuccessful, leaves a walk in for the opposition winger.

There is something wrong with our defensive structure

Had Jowitt not covered behind the line on our right, it would have been the same on that side too.

It wasn't lack of effort or commitment from any player but, there is something not quite right, which has been a problem for a long time.

Marc is so boring, I’ve heard he spends all Saturday polishing that Lance Todd trophy, then for a change on a Sunday he polishes the other one, trophy that is.

You don't know for sure then? maybe it's just a rumour.

Wont matter if he's got a hundred Lance Todd trophies when the hooter goes on Friday

Hull are underachieving - they have some great players and fantastic support (even though their language is colourful!)
I too, fear that Fifita and Arona - though I want them back - may not be match fit, but CC knows their level of fitness better than me.
Lee Radford will be demanding a big improvement and we will have to be at our very best to get anything from this one I think!

WAKEFIELD TRINITY V HULL FC
Friday 6th March
The Mobile Rocket Stadium | KO : 19:45

Referee J. Child

Hmmm, our fave ref.......




Don't understand why he doesn't like us.....
,,,,,seeing as he's from Wakefield.........

It was in response to him being boring, earlier post, obviously missed by your good self.

That explains a lot.
He will be so determined not to be accused of bias, that he makes sure that he is overly keen to penalise us


I hope that he's has reviewed the Cas game and is feeling guilty.

Having said that, it's up to Trinity to keep their own errors to a minimum and give him no excuse to ping us.
One thing he wont be doing is missing any tackles or dropping the ball only us (or Hull) can do that.

Not missed at all bud, I hope that he brings his full trophy collection with him and a tin of Brasso

Think he's from dewsbury/batley end?

But yeah, we know he's a bloody pedant - got to keep it clean and not mess about at the PTB, that seems to be his biggest beef

With the squad named, I would expect the following 17 from Hull:

Shaul
Fonua
Tuimavave
Griffin
Buchanan
Kelly
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Bowden
Jones
Ma'u
Sao

Lane
Fash/Johnstone
Satae
Ellis

Arona is in the 21, no David F

Will Dave ever be fit, seems like he's been 'hopefully back next week' since the start of the season

If he’s not back in for Bradford game I’d agree with you.

Could be why Navarette was signed for the whole season? There must be some doubts about him, let's hope not and he's out there sooner rather than later.

Hasn’t CC said he doesn’t want to change a winning team, in which case neither should play. Perhaps Arona is just a bit ahead of Dave. He’ll play when he’s ready, blimey it was only last year people were moaning that he was playing when he shouldn’t have been.

Club can’t win at times.

Would really hate to be churlish ohh exalted one, but perhaps you are missing the point somewhat?

In that we have had it put to us that he has seemingly been close for a good few weeks now, yet hasn't made the 21.

You've used the correct word there with "close"

According to Dave he is fit and ready to go, that was 3 weeks ago.

Maybe the confusion over Fifita comes from recent press articles stating he's ready to play and the fact that he appeared on Rugby AM on the 22nd February and said that his foot was ok and good to go and all he needed was match fitness.....maybe there's something we're not being told? If it's just fitness why hasn't he appeared for the reserves like Alex Walker last week?

Why am I being exulted, I'm stating the obvious, either Dave isn't ready or CC isn't wanting to pick him. He's not an automatic choice having not played in ages. It's not like the HB 's where there is a definite shortage, two players would need to be dropped for Arona and Fifita, I can't pick two who deserve it can you?

He didn't say that to me after the Warrington game....

Agree FC - don't think you can drop anyone tbh and I wouldn't be surprised if Tini isn't in the 17....
Also, why risk him if he isn't 100%?
It would set him back and the moaners on here would then start.....
