Brown not fit enough apparently that's why he's been 18th man, TS not happy with Brown's pre season. If Griffin continues like that this season he will get another year IMO.

Plenty of positves to take from last night for sure.
Fantastic to see the team spirit is back and even though they boke us a few times, our scrambling D was once again fantastic.
Thought Lovodua went well at hooker and would definitely start him there and bring Dwyer off the bench. As others have alluded to, having Savelio back will tighten the right hand side up and would also bring Mitch straight in for Mcintosh when he's fit.

Agree on all points, Lovodua isn't a LF, but was better at hooker.

The full right side has potential to be changed with Carlos, Mitch and Savelio, although I've been impressed with Scott.

Although I'd have been disappointed if we had lost, but really enjoying watching us at the moment, so much better to watch, asd in 4 very good players and a spine and defence getting better I think we can have a real crack at the play offs.

Injuries aside, TS said it will be a different 17 next week at Catalan.

Richest? Congratulations, so with that comes expectations of success. Last millennium, probably before you were born, that was the watchword for both Hull clubs. Since then, we have tasted the sweetness of 3 major trophy wins. You won a plate, by way of a curtain raiser. You created a host of probable unbreakable records in your last final appearance and forever immortalised the names of Tom Briscoe and Keiron Dixon, simultaneously. Oh, to be as rich as you.

Well out of order calling Lane out for 'Gamesmanship' as well when he went off for a HIA. Nothing surprising, just the usual garbage but it's so annoying. Wilkin tried to praise Hoy's defence on one of the breakaways and he got talked over by big thick tw4t O'Connor.
As for Hoy and Clifford, both great players, let's just enjoy them while they're here. They're gonna damage some teams when they find their stride and the grounds firm up.

Problem is though savelio spends alot of time in the stands

And Carlos has become injury prone last 18 months aswell

I doubt they will be up yet. Spent the wee small hours drinking and festering, absolutely consumed by us. #aspirational

Fash was immense all match.

He is most games tbf, his work rate is immense.

Cracking game to watch for the neutrals , A bit nervy again for us fans . Hoy settling in well and giving us something different from Connor . Fash was outstanding again as was Scott, Great line from Griffin for the Swift try . Hopefully the momentum keeps going in the right direction .
I think Taylor might be called to the disciplinary for the leg twist , Hopefully NFA .

And no doubt got his sock stuck as it’ll have dried out.

Scott deserves to keep his place in the 17 when Carlos is fit again, maybe move him to starting second row and Lane to the bench / dropped?

Some big metres last night

Griffin 186
Hoy 161
Swift 150

One club merged their way to the top league, one team battled like an authentic club to the top. And now have overtaken the replica club in both performance and assets. Next 10 years are all ours, and I’d be shocked if you lasted the next 10, unless you find another merger. Lol

I suggest that you check your history books.

You could finish above us every year for the next decade (you won't by the way) but we will always be the bigger club. We always have been and always will be. You know this is in your heart of hearts which is why you're posting on here.

With all this new investment are there plans for an ice cream van on Craven Streat?

Still dont get why he is then named as 18th man

STOP PRESS
Aldi have announced that due to all the excitement and massive financial investment in HKR they have decided to quadruple the size of their store in Greatfield

Suppose we can have whatever we like, forgot at what a luxury that is for some clubs. £

Performance 2 wins each so far

Assets well I'll give you that obviously you have a better stadium than us, Better Training facilities than us, bigger gates than us, more season ticket sales than us, more sponsors than us, more trophies gained than us and more revenue raised form merchandising than us.
I know one of your new directors and he certainly doesn't just see himself as a cow I'll tell you that. Just enjoy the rivalry for what it is and stop being so juvenile, you probably weren't around when the two best teams in the League came from the City and if you were you will know that the best thing for the City, its people, the local amateur rugby scene and schools rugby, is when both clubs are doing well.

I'll have a 99 please!

Will you ask him when we’re signing Munster?

An interesting watch & listen on TS post game thoughts. Get the feeling he wasn’t that happy but pleased to see that they dug in and worked together to get the win. Like that he wants to study in detail the game and the lead up to our poor last plays etc. Whilst I still don’t get his bench selection I’m pleased we gave a proven head coach and has instilled a genuine togetherness and accountability to the club. Love his comments re getting a 6 again https://youtu.be/PS7gv9dAQv0
