Simple. Drop the utterly ineffective Yeaman and play Rankin in the centres.
But I doubt Yeaman's buddy Radford will even think of that idea.

| We voted Pryce MOM. Arguing between him and Michaels. Was also tempted to vote for Sneyd who showed why he was signed - needs that confidence boost to mature into consistency.
Rankin was my MOM last week. Love him, he needs to play as does Shaul. Agree with Kosh centre is the obvious choice and said as much two weeks ago. Reminds me of when we were calling for the same slot for Berrigan who managed one brilliant game finally in the position he was most comfortable in before he went back to Oz.
Start making the most of what you've got, Radford.

| pryce was great tonight despite getting 10 bells knocked out of him. rankin needs to stop running sideways when joining the line as he closes the space for his centre

| i actually thought Mini was the MOM. catalan brought over a big set of forwards but mini stood up to them really well and a couple of big hits really seemed to knock them back. when you add in that ellis was struggling through and eventually sucummed to injury, i thought he rose to the challenge superbly. one of those performances you don't always notice, but very effective
my top 3 rounded out with Pryce and Sneyd - who had his best game for hull yet

Stuggling with basic comprehension skills, then?

As I said elsewhere, and this is amongst the most upbeat comments:
Decent performance after a dire first 20 minutes, couple of right brainfarts gifted them a couple of tries. Pryce, Lineham, Rankin showed up well. Catalans were poor though. You'd have to be a complete fool to think beating them at home equated to a free top 6 pass.

Not at all, just amazes me how people are getting seriously overexcited after one game where we almost snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. When we've won 4 in a row then I'll think we're getting somewhere.

I'd agree with that assessment.

Where have you seen anybody getting over excited? Definitely not on here. Also we where winning 33-16 with a couple of minutes to go, hardly a near loss like you say. You should really stop making things up.

Which comments equate to being "seriously overexcited"?

Nobody - absolutely NOBODY - is getting even a little 'overexcited'. Unless you'd like to offer some evidence to the contrary?
But the comprehension and reasoned argument were never your strong suits in your previous incarnation.

I am not talking just RLFans, from what I heard we played well but struggled to close the game out in the second half, possibly down to some questionable refereeing decisions. The next three games are going to show where we really are as a club, squad and team. Hopefully we can string some wins together and start climbing the ladder. As for "previous incarnation"??? I've noticed there are a few posters on here that seem to dislike people with different opinions, it's a discussion forum about opinions, is it not?

We were dire in the first 20 attacking wise, but still very dominant in defence, the only time they got in our half was from a penalty (And scored a good try to be fair)
I though our defence was upto our usually standards, apart from taia, who as I've said before is as good as any backrower in SL.
What impressed me the most was our passing and speed, certainly feel more positive than before, but must back it up next week.

I didn't hear anyone getting ovoverexcited at the KC last night or on the radio after the game either. Maybe yiu could provide some examples?
As for the rest - you're fooling no-one, Martin.

It sounded like Houghton's distribution was still a little laboured, was that the case?

No problem with different opinions, but you are talking rubbish as people have said, nobody is going overexcited about this result and I'm talking about on here, twitter and people after the game I spoke too.
See as you didn't go I'll help you out, we never struggled to close the game out, we were pretty much in control all the game and after we scored our first try the game never looked in doubt.

At times, but I still think he needs a rest, with the injuries we have I expect we will have a 2nd hooker on the bench for the Cas game.

so why was it only an 11 point win? that is whatI mean by closing the game out, Leeds or Saints would have put another 30/40 on them, that is where I want us to be, and with better attacking flair (and by the sounds of it, better refereeing) we could be.
