yep wood in for carlile who did his hamstring yesterday, wood is upto the job so not a major worry

Pulled hamstring, oh dear he'll be out for some time, pity because he'd done well!

Wood has gone very well in the pre season.

Was very impressed with Wood in pre-season, should do OK today provided our pack can get on top.

That useless winger scored 2 in 1st 10 mins!!!!!

TBF you was only playing us.

Not the best game or performance but a win's a win.

job done today



we seem to be playing well for 20mins here and 10 mins there, need to do it for 80mins but its only early season.

EORL CRABTREE WAS AWESOME TODAY...!!!!

back to the crabtree we know

wood played well for his debut.

hull were out on there feet with 15mins to go.

good crowd today too 8800. ... lets keep it up

Aye, not bad given the weather was terrible

The only play that got the crowd going was that 40 meter hit by Crabtree then Horn as usual drops the ball and crows goes silent.

Hasnt Horne gone to Wakey?

No he was playing for us today, think it's Josh Griffin and Johnson who's gone to Wakey.

That would be nice

I wish he would.

I'd like to see us go with two props on the bench. Mase missed out today for whatever reason but if he's back next week leave out Horne. We lose imputus when we spell the props because we only have one on the bench IMO.

Think Lawrence was drinking in last chance saloon and today sealed his fate IMO Cudjoe and Simpson/Wardle to come in at . Horne also to miss out and Mason to come back in. Liked Wood looked lively and good debut.

i agree with a few of the above comments

would like two see two props on the bench and lawrence is not impressing too much lately... simpson may take his place.

bit unfair on horne, he has improved alot with us...needs another good performance soon though or he will be getting dropped too.

Yeah, Lawrence was rubbish, he only scored one try and that was a walk in.

Hang on, am I mixing up my wingers?


Wingers always get slated, no matter how much work they do, nor how much good they do. I bet if the internets had existed in 1913 there would be some people slating off Rosenfeld.

Rosenfield 80 tries in a season but he could not tackle

What's Bruno done wrong ??
He is more of a defensive player and was solid in defence and scored a try and he hasn't done enough ??

Thought we could have won a lot more comfortably yesterday if we had stepped up a few gears, apart from the spell that got them back into the game FC didnt really look a threat in attack whereas i think we could have done more with the ball and being more composed but a wins a win !!

no doubting lawrence is brilliant in defence, still needs to work on his attack though...alot of attacks that come down the lawrence/hodgson side seem to fail, either with the ball going into touch or they over run each other and the attack loses impotus..a few times this has happended already in the 3 games. brown clearly states we need to improve in attack and i think this is one of the areas. early days yet though for the combos to work

Sure hope he would!

I had a "beta" version in 1914 Codey --but never slagged our Albert!!

Right, Bruno, Hodgson, Gilmour, Horne. Hmmm, whom shall I pick on.

Think I'll go for Eorl, I mean look at him. 12 years ago he couldn't get in the team, he was weak and awkward, his tackling techniques left a lot to be desired. And what's more, he couldn't kick goals.Pah. What a player.

Shot out of the line for Hull try, didnt create diddly squat for Hodgy, + side scored a good try that took some scoring, its not what he has done wrong but what is he doing to keep his place that we should be asking if we are now a top team?

When does he power into a tackle and offload to his winger ala Gidley or even Atkins?

Must be something though cos McBanana has chosen him, thats why I am sat in stands and not coaching



By the way its only an opinion and others all have diferent views its just Bruno doesn't seem to have kicked onto that next level and seems lost in the and if its defence we want there we may as well play Ferguson or Gilmour there.
