Byrne - out for the season
Tony - looking that way also
Briscoe - ? ligaments - could be months?
Cusack - apparently serious knee injury
Burnett - injured weeks ago, no update
Raynor - out for months so far
Lauaki - awaiting visa
Crocker - see above

Back to where we were last season. Bugger.

Could be worse, we still have Horne and Berro

Hope that's not the kiss of death Yeamo

So we could still get to the Cup final? Oh.......

Grand final is A cup final

We have 10 points

But have yet to identify an unregistered player.

If any or both of them get injured, we are absolutely screwed

I feel as though we already are, hope i am wrong and things do turn around but not holding my breath.

If we can get Crocker in things will look better, arent too bothered about Lauaki.
Thorman will prove himself, but the Cusack blow is almost a knockout, him and Dowes were so soild in the first 5 games

Never.

Just wait

Dowes and Cusack were solid up until the moment when the Yak got injured on Friday. The problem is that they were over used.

I've come to terms with the fact that FC are in a 'transitional phase'. We might sneek 7th or 8th this year, but thats the most we can hope for IMO. For next year we need to make some serious improvements; a top scrum half is paramount, not to renew the contracts of underperforming players as we've seen previously and to sort the coaching set up (at all levels), should the quality of our rugby not improve.

To be honest, I'm embarrased to be a Hull fan at the moment, we've got nothing.

IMO we need Lauaki more than Crocker at the moment.

We need a coach who knows what he is doing imo.

Hands off JM, you cant have him!!

At loose man, Crocker offers a lot more leadership than Radford does. If/When he comes, I fully expect Manu to be put on the bench and Radford and Tickle to play SR.

Who said i wanted him........you can keep him.

We need both for certain. More forward power would improve the situation for our halves.

Dont kid yourself mate. Think you would be glad of his expertise at the moment.

Nope.not kidding myself at all.......wouldnt want him here..simple as.

In the words of one of yours - "The Brother"

"pains me to say it but Morgan has the wood on us

since there arrival they have won 6 of the 9 games played, on each occasion being well deserved and fair play to him , he always comes up with a game plan and his players excute it well and always notice that they seem to want it more than we do

they kick chase game is always better than ours, yesterday they crossed the advantage line so easily by coming wider of the ruck and running wider off dobson coming from deeper and running on the ball

wish our players would go out on to the pitch as they would die for there team and the fans"

He speaks for us all.

Bank holiday weekend, fax machine broken and a new player straight into the team today.

We might have found him.............................

Not looking good now
