Wishful thinking on them points

. In all seriousness though I like to see all teams from Hull doing well (just so long as KR are just one spot above you). I'm not one for starting false rumours especially about a player being injured. Besides you could all just come back on in a few ays and ridicule me if I were wrong.

I'm sure Agar said Horne and Long were carry deadlegs into halftime. Hope it not hamstring.

Another quality avatar Major!

Keep up the good work.

cheer's mate, I like this one too. says it all really

Agar just said deadlegs about Long and Horne at halftime...if it was a hamstring he would be straight off.

straight forward question,do you all believe this??

i got a text 3 days before saints game saying long had injured himself in training and was out for 4 weeks,i just happened to be working at south hunsley school at the time and long was training with the squad,so i wouldnt personaly read to much into whats said on here.

Long saw no problems when we were getting bumed every game last season

Dennis Moore said both had deadlegs but I guess we'll see.

1. Horne and washbrook 6 & 7.

2. Turner centre, Whiting full back, Tansey scrum half.

3. Washbrook hooker, Berro scrum half?

Don't like any of them to be honest but at a push would maybe go for option 1?

Any other ideas?

Maybe the injury occured after the game sometime ?

Id trust Eric though, he has some very good contacts

Not Eric! (big bouffon & glasses)

Not saying this isn't true but look at it this way, if you were going to "rest" Sean Long which game would you choose out of the next 5?

good call

I agree Wolfie, pre season we had Dobbins telling us how past it Long was and what a disappointment he will be.
Now they have realised he still has plenty of gas left in his tank it looks like every week were gonna get Dobbins on here with their tales of him being injured and out for weeks. Wishful thinking I can only presume !!

Having had hamstring problems myself in the past and having watched Long walking around the park clapping the fans at the end of the game he certainly didnt seem to be in that much pain. I remember I could hardly walk and certainly could'nt walk as freely as he was.
I Would rest him at the weekend though if not completely right !

4. Long plays 7.

Did Agar say that Longy had a dead leg?.

Any developments with this ?

Watching during and after the game and listening to what Agar said I would be surprised if this was true. That said he won't go through the season injury free, it's not the Hull FC way.

Would be gutting but we do have options and it would mean gametime for either Turner or Washbrook.

I'll wait and see.

Although I believe the op may be winding us up if we ever found ourselves in this situation .. Tansey s/h whiting f/b and turner centre for me

Saw him about half hour or so after the match and he was definitely limping but didn't look too unhappy.

Agar definitely said the knocks to him, Horne and Radford were nothing serious but its possible he didn't know the full extent of the injury then or was playing it down.



Alternatively it may be there is nothing in this story.



TBH I did wonder if he would be rested against Crusaders anyway. I'm not saying I think he should be rested but I can see a few changes for that match.

If anything Washy will come in, be named at 7.

with Tansey taking some work on in attack i would think.

Pointless makinf 3/4 changes to accomodate one change

Agreed.

Leave Tansey where he is and utilise either Washy or Turner in the halves. Too many changes could upset the team further. Although if Calderwood was fit then him coming in and Hall to centre, Whiting to FB and Tansey to 7 would also make sense.

I agree we should keep tansey at fullback changing things around will just spoil our cohesion.

going off topic a little, i read an article in the papers that Leeds have adopted a new policy for this season regarding telling the press or fans any injury news unless that player is happy too, just wondered what your thoughts were on this stance and if other clubs should or should not adopt it?
