thought the lad had a very good game tonight and his kicking game was spot on..look out Horney

Ellis kicked the NL1 league to death!...He looks good for a SL novice and I am sure he will carry on improving..

Horney had a great game, best I have seen for a few seasons...Big raps to the pair of them

Dilemma for Gentle on friday if Wade is back.

A cracking kicking game and a great 40/20 that helped change the game

ellis had great game, but was at fault for the first bradfrod try from where we sat, seemd like he called for the pass and the bulls player, whitehead?, intercepted, a couple of brainfarts, but excused for that fantastic 40/20 at the death

No brainer.....Wade back and Horne to 6

The 40-20 was immense. Won us the game. Still has a lot of improving to do but played well given his inexperience

Spot on.

I imagine he will revert Horne to 6 and Wade to 1 but as you say it is nice to give the coach headaches when you get the chance.

Also i presume Yeaman will be available too so another nice dilemna there for Gentle as having just seen a few of the tries on Sky it looked good centre play again from Turner to put Briscoe in for the winner.

yeaman on the bench next week, turner has earned the right to keep his spot

Ellis helped our kicking game immensely tonight and if past derbies are anything to go back then kicking will be a very important aspect. I expect him to go with Wade and Horne but the youngsters are definitely giving him food for thought.

Yeamo to Centre, Horne Back to 6, Wade comes back at Full Back, Turner to Loose Forward and Aspinwall to the bench with Ellis to rotate with Houghton?

Kicked very well but threw a couple of shocking passes out and in particular the one that led to the first Bradfrd try. Possibly trying too hard and just needs to pick his passes a little better and not try something every time he has the ball in his hands.

Oh and Turner has earned the right to keep his place IMO.

Spot on

Best kicking display by a Hull FC player since Cooke left.

Outstanding kicking game. Kept pinning them back when we needed it, an excellent 40-20 and only a couple of yards off another.

Great kicking game tonight, aided by the poor Karl Pryce. Think Ellis had a rough/average first 20 minutes or so but was great after that. Best kicking display I've seen in a while for FC, tbh.

Think that for next Friday I'd go with McKinnon at 1 (if fully fit), Ellis at 6, Horne on the bench.
However, if McKinnon isn't 100% then I'd save him for the Hudds game on the monday, Horne at 1, Ellis at 6.

Good kicking game,but the rest of his game was very average,needs a hell of a lot of improving before can cement a starting spot in the halfs,

I think ellis deserves 6 on friday. His kicking game was great tonight and derbies are usually won by the best kicking game.

unless wade is 100% i would keep horne at 1 and rest wade.. yeamo i'd put in centre and turner at 13. he doesn't deserve to be dropped.

You think he is ready for a derby? Will be a much more challenging prospect than bradford with an electric atmosphere, Id rather stick with the more experience in horne, IMO of course.

I think he will be up for a derby. if wade isn't fully fit, horne would be playing at 1. In the last couple of matches horne's kicking game has dropped drastically. Ellis has a good one and today showed it, he kicks it harder and we can pin them back easier.

But thats my opinion and i no others may disagree.

As above. Well done to him though nonetheless. Agree about Turner also.

The lads got a great kicking game but was very raw with ball in hand and not ready for a regular spot in such an important position yet but he's only young and it will hopefully come. As good as his kicking was, his passing at times was woeful.

Yeaman would walk back in my time despite Turners good form we need all the experience we can in this team across a very tough period.

Bit harsh on Aspinwall, isn't it? He's been doing ok.
