Broken hand, 5 weeks out. Anyone heard anything?

no but although i don't wish injury on any player i hope its true because i cant see him been dropped unless he gets injured.

you hope its true!!? ave a word

i dont mean it in a harsh way he is either injured or he isn't but if he is i see it as a good thing gives a chance for someone else to play alongside briscoe what everyone has been calling for

Is it unfortunate that Brett didn't manage to kill himself?

Well i was told that he would have been for the Cas game if Crooks was fit.

Thought for the lack of quality ball that side he went well on Friday. Ran best lines of yr a couple of times and his hand off n carries were strong.

He's been this year, deserves dropping. If its true, this injury has saved his blushes.

have we got a better then Yeamo ?

On this seasons form, yes.

On this year's form, I'd say both Whiting and Crooks could do a better job. When Crooks has a little more size and experience, he'll be twice the centre Yeaman is.

He might be a bit off his own standards so far this season but hes by far the best we have .
He will come good .

thank you!! too many people try defend him because hes a hull lad with his testimonial hes lucky he hasn't been shipped out already like washbrook and lee he hasn't had a good year since he was top try scorer with briscoe. since then he has been all down hill to greedy and drops the ball with the try line beckoning too many times

And that's exactly why we lag behind the top clubs. He is a head down and take a tackle player. Rarely will he create something and release his winger. In short he is predictable.

He really isn't. Certainly not on current form.

Hope it isn't true as I don't fancy going into the derby with a very inexperienced 3/4 line.

For all his faults, yeaman can defend and is solid.

Agree he has been average so far this season but it also stretches back some time. Anyone know what his try scoring record has been pre and post cooke?

Overall, he's quite an ordinary centre. Current form or no.

I was being diplomatic.

Yeaman runs good lines and is solid defensively. He'll be a big miss I reckon.

Pre Cooke (debut - end of 2006) - 114 Apps & 65 tries.
Post Cooke (2008 - end of 2012) - 114 Apps & 66 tries.

SL only.

Omitted 2007 on the basis that it's far too time consuming to separate pre and post Cooke.

Some people on here really need to have a word with themselves, wishing a player injured is beyond the pale.

Yeamo has never given less than 100% for the club, he may not be a good ball handling centre but is solid in defence but runs good lines and can break a tackle. We could do a lot worse.

Doesn't change the fact that he's been e this year.

Agreed.

Not having a great season and all his testimonial events must be a distraction. We need his defensive attributes at the moment and besides out right hand attack ain't doing too bad........

As for lewis_hullfc comments that "I hope it's true that he's injured" - Beggers belief!!
