Back on thread . really looking forward to Thurs . should be a cracking game and good crowd can't wait COYH

It was childish and inflammatory as well you know but then you and comeonyouull come on here and support it, merely to exasperate the problem.
He might not be to everyone's liking and we all don't have to agree on everything but comments like those serve no purpose other than to wind up people and derail threads.

But BUMPY'S comments don't ?

Thanks for your input.

I told wizeb to grow up, in response to him/her making a post not only designed to antagonise and inflame over something from 9 months back but was totally unrelated to the thread.
When I post a comment related to a thread as I do, it's my opinion based on what I think, I don't post solely based to attack and inflame as you and others have done. That you don't agree with my thoughts about the club, the personnel and/or how we have played doesn't give you the right to make personal snides to forum members and deliberately making posts designed to inflame/derail.
If I respond back in a similar vein to the person who made direct reference to myself in a way that breaks the AUP it's always me in the wrong, never the instigator but then as you've being one of the culprits that's all ok isn't it and you get full backing by the moderators through their inaction.
Crack on though because I'm not going away and will continue to post my thoughts on the club and rugby as a whole.

I, for one, welcome your thoughts on Hull FC and Rugby League.

As long as your not posting opinion stated as fact, writing defamatory comments about certain people at the club, trying to get a man sacked from his job through online petitions, setting unreasonable and unrealistic parameters for success/failure for the club, and keep the personal hatred and bullshine to one side - then nobody would take issue with your posts, we could all have civil debate and have a nice time



If you continue to post as you have done, you should have every expectation that people will take issue with it, challenge it, and take the mick out of it.

Can Knocker and his Knockers please just put a lid on all this. It serves no purpose and its really tiresome.

Look... can't we just focus on the team? they're doing great at the mo arn't they ?
Yes we can still have a go when needed as that our right and the purpose of us being on here.
But some stuff is undermining the club itself and that surely must stop.
Last time I looked we were top of the league, and playing sparkling Rugby...... just saying thats all.

Really tough game this IMO. We look weak on our RH edge and cas are particularly strong on their left. Not sure what their injury situation is like but hopefully our forwards can continue in the same vein. We've really won the last 2 games by increasing our intensity at the first interchanges which the opposition haven't been able to cope with and if we can do that I reckon we'll win again. We can;t afford to take cas lightly though as they are easily capable of winning this if we're not at teh races

Our injury situation isnt great but could be worse. We have a couple of players out but nothing major apart from our captain Shenton. Our team will probably be -:
Dorn
Denny Solomona
Jake Webster
Ben Crooks
Joel Monaghan
Luke Gale
Ben Roberts
Millo
McShane
Lynch
Junior Moors
Oliver Holmes
Nathan Massey

Hull putting on another lights show prior to kick off on Thursday. Hopefully will get the atmosphere going like at the start of the Salford game.

Wow, tomorrow is definitely pre game!

Tough game v Cas, but one we are capable of winning.

This is the type of fixture that will firm up our Top 5-8 credentials.

Just like Salford, we won the home game last season so it will be no direct improvement on last season (unlike the Cats game which we had lost last season). However a win will consolidate our good start and a comfortable win will support our hope that we could be in for a good season. A defeat will suggest our hope could be misplaced.

My glass is half full, so I'm confident of a win. If we do win, the Wigan match will then test if we have any Top 4 credentials.

Happier times and like they said in the Shawshank Redemption, 'hope is a good thing'

Sorry about that. Too excited.

lets hope the cas fans turn up! on their own forum, (not rlfans), they are advertising the game at the KC lighstream stadium lol

Tough game, their starting 13 looks good and a match for ours, we have won the last two games in the pack and they are strong there, particularly the starting front row.

It may come down to the bench, so if it is close when the first interchanges come on and we can bring on Frank, Bowden and Ellis, this could be were we take control like the last two games.

Unless there are any injuries we don't know about, I don't see any changes, personally I would be tempted to play Naughton in front of Micheals, as he has looked good in pre season and apparently looked very good for the reserves and he offers more to Hull long term, but I don't see Radford making any changes.

Really looking forward to the game, but feeling a bit nervous about it.

I think a right edge of naughton and logan could struggle against webster and solomona. michaels to keep his place for me

Fair point, although Micheals did struggle against Richards (Although most wingers would struggle to stop him at that range).

I worry about Solomona's pace against Micheals though, he is lightning could get around Micheals.

Hope we give Lynch a good reception tomorrow - I loved seeing him at Hull. We really should pepper the hell out of Crooks though and watch his head go down. Wouldn't mind seeing Holmes in an FC shirt too. He gets better every year.
Could be a great game but I'm pleased Carney isn't there now. Shenton will be a massive loss.
I predict Carlos to get 2 or 3.

I think if we can keep the game close for the first 20-25 mins then our interchanges will again be a massive boost.

Cas really will be a tough test but one that as long as we sharpen up defensively and play for the 80mins we should get the win.

I predict crooks to get 2 or 3

I actually believe we will win comfortably. This Cas side isn't as good as the last few seasons imo (they drew with KR!!).

That first 13 for Cas looks fairly decent and comparable to ours, but our bench and home advantage should see us through (hopefully).
Bookies have us -8.

Oddschecker have us 5th favourites to win the grand final at 10/1. I'm sure they had us down to finish 8th at the start of the season.

I think we will win by 18. Their fans, but like us, talking up their team but I think we are a different animal this year and crooks, Solomona, dorn have defensive deficiencies

Christ, a few good wins and you guys are getting a bit big for your boots.

The Cas team this year is pretty much the same as last year and we were 50/50 in our matches, so let's just wait and see. Otherwise it might be a lot of eggs on faces.
