it would be slightly ironic if he becomes an impact player from the bench. Its exactly the role he had in Aus. Maybe a period of self-reflection from him will point to why this is. He has the ability to be more than this IMO. He has good skills both in his hands and his feet + good physical attributes.... surely something to do with attitude and application. He still has a part to play for us...unless he is moved on sooner rather than later.

Played wing against New Zealand shamble of a Lions tour. Like a fish out of water but didn't appear let anyone down and shows character to have a go for the team.

The more you look at him the more you realise he's pretty one dimensional.

And as much as I'd like to play lee radford's Hull fc all the time, the reality is, we aint

You know what bothered me about that at the time.

The fact that we had Connor at centre and Blake on the wing, now it's not uncommon for stand offs to play centre or centres get moved to stand off. So that change would have made some sense. But to put Blake on the wing, when jake Connor had played a fair bit on the wing and fb, and was a damn sight better under high balls and positioning made zero bloody sense

Totally agree made no sense if I remember correctly our half backs weren't setting the games on fire either.

also, very disapointed with the OP, for not titling this thread.

"How do you solve a problem like Blake Austin"

it fits perfectly.
