I was critical of okunbor last week.
cator going off injured then going a man down meant he had to do more defensive work.
In saying that
the hype, expectations and fact he’s one of the biggest earners in the squad.
Early days yet but I’m expecting better from our overseas players.
My over riding concern pre season was leadership..
Hopefully plenty of improvement to come.

I think McIntosh has filled in at centre before .

I thought he had. Might be an option?. Litten IMO needs a year on loan somewhere. Not good enough as a winger or centre. Needs bulking up as gets pushed of far to easily. F B is definitely his position. Early days yet for the kid.

Times really are bad when we're discussing McIntosh as a centre

Think we all know, things are pretty bad.

Neither Litten or Mcintosh is ideal.

That's what you get for having 4 injury prone centres.

Anymore bans/injuries and we will struggle to field a team next week.

Any word on the team yet? Not like it will make this miserable February afternoon any more enjoyable

Hopefully no injuries, hopefully things will calm down a bit with all the cards with the player uproar and the world club challenge issues.

Sao and Houghton back next week too.

Fingers crossed but I’m not holding my breath, just seems to be a constant stream of bad news surrounding our club lately.

Totally, I try to be as positive as possible about the club, as I'm that type of person, but that's very very hard at the moment.

C'mon people !!! At least we wont get any score spoilers tonight .

He is a good signing for HKR and a leader on the pitch which we are missing
A penalty machine is better than our front rows who are sitting in the stands for several games having received red and yellow cards plus bans

I thought Herman & Pele looked very effective while on the field, hopefully they will be good assets for us.

Signing older players ala Steve Kearney can work well, Ryan Hall also for rovers, but in our sport it’s a gamble, especially for forwards.

The only thing they seem to communicate nowadays is if there is something to sell, eg the new gear they’ve just released. Winds me up.

In fairness the retro shirts just dropped look class, maybe we should just be a fashion store from now on

Someone has posted this on our forum:

Scientists believed the largest number ever conceived is a googolplexian – which is 10 raised to the power of a googol. A googolplexian is so large, there is not enough matter in the known universe to write it longhand. This has since been beaten by adding up all Hull FCs squad numbers in a match versus Warrington Wolves on 23rd February 2024.

Made me chuckle.

Hopefully we can get some retro performances now we've released them too!

Rumours George Williams is out for around a month

We might only lose by 50 now then

Bruised ego after the Tariq Sims hit went viral

Banned for his direct contact with the head of Busquet?

No don’t be daft.

Just need Warrington to get a couple of early red cards amd we win.

As funny as that sounds, it wouldn't be a massive shock if that happened, well the red cards.

A game between my 2 favourite SL teams.

My fearless prediction is for a comfortable Warrington win, taking me back to the first game I saw between the 2 clubs back in 1948 at the Boulevard which saw Warrington triumph comfortably with Roy Francis and Brian Bevan to the fore.

Much more likely that [iwe'll[/i get an early red card, unfortunately.

That came from Abe Froman, who is our forum's most reliable source, so you can take it as being true, unfortunately. It means Leon Hayes will play, which we have been crying out for, but I wish it had been in place of Drinkwater rather than Williams. Safe travels to anyone making the journey tonight.
