this is an important game,pearson needs healthy pass sales for next season,we need to show we are getting better at home.

Ill start the match thread two days early:

"Errors could cost us this game"
"Poor from Fonua that"
"Goal line defence is poor"

How do you see the game going, spegs? What are your thoughts on the squad would you bring Kelly straight back into the starting XIII or bring him off the bench? What is they key to us securing the win?

If we win, Powell will blame his sides two week break!

Lol or Danny Orr

Watching Storm & Raiders this morning, they said the gates were opened to stop fans waiting, maybe I’ll take a walk Sunday see if Aseem feeling charitable.

good squad, maybe start kelly and Mau of the bench? ,

Id like to see him give the combo of '1. Conner 6. Kelly 7.Sneyd' a run but reading the interview with Last, it sounds like Shaul is full back and Kelly will be coming off the bench.

I would like to see Kelly brought off the bench to punish a tiring Castleford spine and take advantage of the fact that the Glassblowers have had a Covid-19 enforced break. Similar to the strategy we employed against Hull KR last season when we demolished them at the KC.

That said; "errors could cost us"...

Cas still seem to have a few out, notably Watts, holmes, griffin. richardson is back though

You could be right with a view to both starting next week at Catalan.
Dont want to see Johnstone or Houghton on the bench for this one.This game and the Catalan game not the matches for carrying two nines.
I would also leave Fash out for this game.

Houghton back in for Johnstone, Houghton all round better to me, Johnstone been pretty average

Disagree, Johnstone offers far more going forward and at the play the ball

Houghtons over the hill, wears himself out tackling, let Johnstone progress

Like what? Think this is a myth to be honest! You sound really disrespectful of a Hull legend

Houghton for me everyday of the week.

How can we watch the game, not on Sky?

It’s ok, found it on Homeward bound thread.

Houghtons now immune from criticism?

That was half the problem during Radfords days, your attitude breeds inconsistency

Hull legends do go through loss of form you do realise that?

Johnstone can pass a lot better than Houghton , it's well noted Houghtons pass from the play the ball is very slow.

Both similar players, Johnstone will be a good replacement for Houghton, long term I'd like to have a hooker with a bit more zip.

I'd rotate Houghton and Johnson each game for the rest of the season.

I quite like Houghton coming off the bench, I just don't think we can pretend the Houghton of now is the Houghton of 3/4 seasons ago as that'd be very naive. He has improved under Last slight upturn in form but remains to be seen if he can be consistent

Top tackler for how many seasons in a row, can’t get much more consistent than that, I’m not pretending anything, Houghton gives 100 % every time he takes the field, can’t say the rest for a lot of the others over last couple of seasons. I’ve read what people say about Houghtons passing been slow etc, and have purposely watched and compared, and don’t see a problem, if anything, it’s the lack of options Houghton as to pass to, and that’s down to our predictable one out rugby, hence you’ve noticed the difference recently under last

Anyone watched any games on the ourleague app and, if so, tried casting it to a tv?

Top tackler because people run at him: Houghton sideways run then pass is the main reason we don’t score source enough from possession in the opposition 25.

I did, but it wasn't particularly good, even an hdmi cable straight to the tv was a bit "clunky" at times.

Maybe if I'd played about with the input settings on the tv it would have improved, but I've got used to the pc now.
