Hello everyone, back from our warm weather retreat, and looking forward to the start of the season at Headingley on Sunday. With the abundance of choices in our back line up, Radders has some difficult decisions to make, and obviously sometimes he will have to disappoint players, perhaps Albert late knock at Batley has influenced this particular choice, or as JTP states perhaps Connor has looked the business at six, Albert may have got in shape, but that would be the minimum requirement, whatever team Radders selects, they have to perform, or risk being dropped, a very healthy position for our team.

Kelly fonua not playing tomorrow

Rumours of Kelly to wakefield

Brough out for the season with ACL.

Kelly fonua playing today for reserves

I agree Radford was always looking to find a place for Connor but at the expense of Kelly doesnt make any sense.
Connor as we have all seen is not a 6.

Is this from the same source who told you that Joel Thompson had definitely signed for us and that Connor was leaving following a fist fight with Taylor?

Get far more right than I do wrong. Dont trust the Wakey one though

Wtf?

Reserves win 20-18, Lewis Bienek scoring in the last minute.

Isnt bienek on a season long loan at leigh? If he is how can he play for our reserves?

I saw Bienek with Kelly and a few of the other younger lads in Total Fitness last night and wondered why Bienek wasn't at Leigh. You wouldn't have thought he could play for Hull while on loan.

He was injured in the 1st minute of the first friendly and hasn't played since, I'm sure Leigh were as keen as everyone else for him to get some game time.



I can't imagine Leigh would have signed off the loan paperwork until he'd proved his fitness.

Connor has been nothing special in the pre season games playing 6 against weak opposition.He was also been given extended game time at 6 last season and failed miserably.Most fans can see he is not a six.
Kelly has not been given much game time at six pre season so it seems Radford has given in to the sulking Sultan.

Seems to be a sicknote.
Had real hope for this lad given his size and pace but surely you cant be that unlucky with injuries.
Make or break season for him.Can see the club moving him on at the end of the season.

That yours or what you know?

Fash will play.he is another Radford favourite

I thought Fash to spell johnstone but apparently not

Regarding wakey rumours brough apparently not as bad as 1st thought so not out the yr and doubt they could afford Kelly as well

Hearing Fash is 18th man

Fonua is not injured but not playing
That is utter garbage
We must be paying him 20,000 pounds a month at least and he decided to be 3 weeks behind schedule for whatever reason
Beggars belief

He didn’t get here till late plus he was still recovering from his injury he sustained playing for West’s Tigers..Played for the reserves today and will look to playing on Friday..Plenty of options at the back so no worries at all

Whilst Albert would be my first choice at six, the silky skills, and superb hands of Jake is an option nearly the whole of Super league would want in their team.

It’s well documented last season, there’s not many who came out with credit, but with a new second row, and competition in the pack, we should have much more energy and consequently create more space for all of our halves to express themselves.

It’s far to early in his career with us, to write Jake of as a half back, time will tell I suppose, I’ve got my tickets for tomorrow, the dilemma is do I go watch Sonny Bill in the uncovered end at Headingley or sample some Tetleys before we kick off, come on yu ulla.
