I'm sure Danny will not be too bothered, [uhe will be more than happy [/ujust reading this thread and receiving such positive feedback from the faithful

Think Long deserves some credit mate,his contribution is second to none.

Captaincy material in 4 to 5 yrs, IMO, anyone??

he reads this forum?

Well can he hurry up and sign his contract, 3-4 years would do, or are the board waiting for the next loss?

Outstanding.MOM by a mile.Best game in a hull shirt.

A fair few of the lads read this forum

as do their families

the chance to be captain will be avaiable in 2012. I can't see radford, long and fitz carrying on till then.

they've got too much time on their hands then!

I think you're wrong there mate. We kicked 2 (1 in each half) and both were by Tansey.

Can't describe how great it is just to have a creative 7 on the pitch. Considering Long hadn't eaten since Thursday morning it was a fantastic effort.

I'm sure Danny got the 1st

Houghtons best game in a Hull shirt by far.......Berrigans influence rubbing off on him.

Nope, just the two. Both to Tansey, I think. The second one was out of dummy half, but I'm pretty certain it was Tansey who was there.

Absolutely superb performance from Houghton. He's really come into his own since Berro has been injured.

When i heard that Mcshane was out i expected Houghton to do less work than normal as he was having to play the full 80, but credit to the lad he showed he has the engine to do the hard graft for 80.

Good thing is that if needed now we can move Berro to centre if injuries dictate it and know that Houghton can do the full 80 at hooker.

I could swear the one out of dummy half was Houghton. (and i was sober) I'm starting to doubt myself now that everyone are saying it was Tansey. (Houghton seemed to get congratulated at the scrum)

So what happens if Berro's back next week? Houghton to start IMO.

Danny had his best display to date last night, his performances have got quietly better and better as this season has developed and under the wing of Berrigan he has progressed into what Shaun said was " A future GB international without a shadow of a doubt, his training ethic and fitness is second to none and his personal skills development is a pleasure to watch"
Now that coming from Shaun is high praise indeed and well deserved...
We have proiduced a few decent hookers over the years and I believe Danny is up there amongst them too , but he is still learning , next year when he is first choice is when he will shine best!!
By the way do not worry about him and his contract situation it is done and dusted already pending a scribble from Danny and all will be revealed shortly.

Know something we don't?

Oh yes

well maybe

We actually insist on that these days do we ?

I sit in the South West corner, and as the team came over for the scrum Tansey was the one getting all the head patting etc. Agar also said in his post match interview about Tansey kicking 2 40/20's being key for them.

It was Tansey both times. Try a few more pints next week.

That'll teach me for not drinking wont it!!

Easily MOM for me. The kid has a hell of an engine on him as he was running and tackling as well at the end of the game as he was at the start
