As I've said many times when fit Pryce is easily the classiest half at the club. Easily.

Has Abdul had a remarkable weight loss and increase in fitness in the last 2 weeks? Because if not he shouldn't be anywhere near the first team.

His weight and fitness are no different to when we played last year and he did well, hard to judge him on one awful team performance.

The Hull KR 19-man squad in full is:

10 Mitch Allgood
11 Maurice Blair
19 John Boudebza
13 Chris Clarkson
18 Ben Cockayne
5 Kieran Dixon
16 James Green
20 James Greenwood
12 Graeme Horne
7 Albert Kelly
24 George Lawler
2 Josh Mantellato
22 Matty Marsh
26 Robbie Mulhern
23 Ryan Shaw
1 Ken Sio
4 Iain Thornley
17 Dane Tilse
8 Adam Walker

The Hull FC 19:

Bowden
Ellis
Fonua
Green
Houghton
Manu
Michaels
Minichiello
Naughton
Paleaaesina
Pritchard
Shaul
Sneyd
Taylor
Thompson
Tuimavave
Washbrook
Watts
Yeaman

Naughton will get everything thrown at him seeing as he showed last week he can't tackle or catch.

Personally I would drop Green for Feka and Naughton for Fonua if fully fit.

nice to see the injured Kelly Horne and Greenwood all there - mind games - pah

Did he miss a lot of tackles? I can't recall them. Also dropped some passes nothing to get hysterical about though

Fornua back Logan dropped!!!


HULL FC: Bowden, Ellis, Fonua, Green, Houghton, Manu, Michaels, Minichiello, Naughton, Paleaaesina, Pritchard, Shaul, Sneyd, Taylor, Thompson, Tuimavave, Washbrook, Watts, Yeaman.

he just looked like rabbit in headlights, a few sat around me in east remarked how a few times they ran at him he let his inside man make first contact, just looked terrified and any team better than wakey would have gone for him a lot more. No doubt the kids rapid but we need to make sure he doesn't get left on his own in defence.

Tbf I didn't think he had the best game but I always feel like something might happen with him in attack. Defence I've not overly noticed as weak but yeaman will help a lot in that dept.

Entirely fair in my opinion.

Shaul
Michaels
Fonua
Yeaman
Naughton
Tuimavave
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Bowden
Manu
Minichiello
Ellis


Green
Watts
Pritchard
Washbrook

Manu to seriously up his game this week and Sneyd to take responsibility for steering the team.

Shaul
Michaels
Fonua
Yeamen
Naughton
Tuimavave
Sneyd
Watts
Houghton
Taylor
Manu
Mini
Thompson


Ellis
Pritchard
Feka
Washy

I expect Feka to get a game over the Easter weekend and I would leave Bowden and Green to face Wire on Monday. Will have to see how we are after the derby injury and fatigue wise but LR said the squad would be changed around.

Logan needed dropping - been poor all season - Like the look of that side

We are all doomed, I have just watched Look North and they have GOD on their side!

Yes, although Stanley Gene is no longer playing these days.

I'd drop manu and bring in thompson, backs pick themselves as there are only 7 of them in the squad. ellis, pritchard, green and thompson on the bench with washbrook starting at 13. Proper back row rotation to stop them dropping off in the last 10 minutes.

Won't happen of course

Talks a big game but always goes missing when it gets tough out there

Why does Washbrook keep getting picked, he offers nothing that others can do better.
He's not a half, he's not a hooker, he's ineffective as a 13 and too slow and can't bust a tackle to save his life.
Thompson is miles more effective and useful in the side, we either have a proper interchange hooker or go with a forward that can bend the line and be an effective tackler.
I still don't see what Washbrook adds aside from consistant bang averageness

Bookies in Aus have us as odds on to win. I'm just not that sure. Salford had been going quite well indeed and 44 points is a lot to let Rovers score. Derbies are usually close and rarely more than 6 in it, rarely.
AT least if we lose then Radfud will be gone.

Total rubbish and spoken like a man who doesn't either understand or watch game, Washbrook has done well and had a big part in a few trys, he has actutally broke the line a couple of times to set up trys, so it shows you just don't watch games.

Thompson has started the season well, didn't play well against Widnes (But who did), but you can't say he is a effective tackler, certainly his weakest area, not sure why he was dropped against Wakey, maybe rested, but if he comes back Washbrook certainly shouldn't be making way on current form.

Granted. Players having to up their game due to competition for places cannot be under estimated either.

Set up a few tries. The line he ran to set Shaul up was a thing of beauty. In my top 2 on Friday behind mini. An under rated signing and great value for money for his use to the team

Playing pretty well - certainly deserves his place. His versatility during games has helped us.
