6 foot and 17 stone winger just average size??????

But we probably haven't signed him to play wing

Same size as our binman talanoa but wouldn't play him in the forwards

If you can plan to play Yeaman and Whiting in the forwards, you can definitely play Talanoa there. He's already played centre. Next step SR or LF.

Back to Hull's finest though. I can guarantee one thing, Kieran Dixon will never make the transition to centre or SR.

Talk about grasping at straws. Cos players are big bang em in the pack. Doesn't matter if their game or attributes don't suit position he's big so it doesn't matter.
He may well end up suiting it. But I don't get what rovers are pratting about at. Have a season of being bitched in the forwards at the end of that season you Prioritise that area. Not convert people after the seasons started after loading up with young unproven lads - mostly backs.


I've a lot of rovers pals who are a bit baffled by it all! Looking in,I am

Today's Michael Owen award for stating the bleeding obvious goes to you. Congratulations.

I honestly think it's a bit of a myth about our forwards getting bullied and steamrolled last season we went into a lot of games with only one proper prop and held our own.The games about more than just having a big pack (Hull will find this out)and our SRs aren't that big but neither are Wigans I think we'll surprise a few people

There were times last season when our intensity and desire together with a lot of flair, skill and opportunism delivered the required result.

Cup games against Wigan, Catalans and Warrington spring to mind. In 7 or 8 regular season league games we were half decent too plus away to Widnes in the middle 8s. The rest of the time we were pants, thanks to our beaten pack, some mediocre creativity, some cruel luck with injuries, some lukewarm intensity levels, some schoolboy defense and some really cackamallabab play execution.

So when we were hot, we were very hot, but when we were cold, we were polar. The reason for such extremes are detailed above. My worry is that we have not addressed these sufficiently as things stand going into the new season.

That's been us for the last 10 years capable of beating saints Wigan and leeds and also getting hammered by Wakefield and the like

Personally, I think that Tilse would be better in the second row, attacking the flanks and being able to offload to his centre with those long arms of his ……As a prop, whose job it is to hit the defensive line as hard as possible and gain valuable metres, he is useless.

I agree with you.

I do agree with you but a lot of our issues is the intensity and attitudes of the players, what we have seen so far in preseason it seems the attitude isn't right, I personally think the coach has lost the dressing room

Yeah I agree the point I was making is that we have a good team on paper but it counts for nothing if you don't have the right attitude

It's interesting that your last few signings are guys who would have worked with Campese at Canberra.

What about the player though roopy?

Reading Campo's rfl rant it looks like this poor kid has been royally bummed.
Hope he gets a gig in Aus.

What's he say, who's he been shafted by

Referred to young kid from Aus who was told to de register from his club to come over here by the rfl.
He de registered and then they told him he couldn't play here. He referred to the Boudebza farce too.

Surely we could have asked for a count of our non-fed, if we were in anyway unsure?

Unless we do somehow have a spot and it is him who has been rejected - with Samoan heritage, NRL games played shouldn't be a barrier.

Eh?

Favourite school pudding

I thought you were dead.

Anyway, seeing as your asking, I used to like that chocolate biscuit type thing that you used to get with the green or pink custard. That or a nice buttery bit of flapjack.

YUM YUM but what has that to do with Sami Sauluma

To be honest us not getting him might be a blessing in disguise. From what I can tell it'd be another overseas player in a position that shouldn't be our priority
