Wonder if Mr Bennett is considering having two Hull Fc players as his centre(s) for Englands next international game.

We could do a lot worse. He obviously isn't a big fan of Percival, and I can't see Reece Lyne being involved this time. He's not a bad shout for a squad place at least.

Just wanted to mention Savelio - best game for us so far yesterday I thought.

Yes. Not sure how much of it was because he was played in his best position and how much was down to him now finding his feet, but he looked really strong. I think he will do you a job in the front row but we definitely need him playing wider to get the best out of him.

Just rewatched the game.
Kelly was absolutely class for our first two tries.
Savelio strong as a bull for the next.
Griffin showing real pace for the next two. Soft hands from Sneydy, again, and Buchanans debut SL try.
Ratu beating two defenders behind his own goal line before putting the after-burners on was rather exquisite.
Griff just too big amd strong for his second. Kassiano couldn't handle him then dumps another on his posterior.
Shaully doing what he does best for the finale and icing on the proverbial cake.
Marc lethal with his boot slotting betweens the H's.
It's a pretty good feeling when everything clicks like yesterday.
Credit where it's due.

I've been saying since we signed him that Griffin needs good, early ball and hes devastating. With a better link from the halves and being 1 man in really suits his game although you would say the same about any 2nd rower

After this showing, I wonder what that Pies dude, Phil Clarke, feels like. He restated his beginning of season prediction, FC would finish 9th.

This is the bloke who predicted Salford finishing top last year, I take what he says with a very large pinch of Saxa!

I know they're currently in a decent league position but if les cats don't improve quickly I can see macnamara coming under some pressure. They've been woeful since magic weekend

Played outwide instead of the middle that’s why.

Re: Le Cats : Sun Jun 23, 2019 12:33 pm  

Superb performance yesterday , some great tries scored and good to see we can do it without the experience of Ellis and mini, massive couple of months coming up , keep this intensity , consistency up and we could have a great chance in both comps

Thought Savelio played well and could well be a similar player for us as Willi Manu was. He needs to play out wide and yesterday proved it, hopefully now we have the likes of Bowden & Green back it allows Radford to keep him out wide.
