That's life isn't it. Sadly for Agar he is pleasing fewer and fewer people most of the time.

I suppose those who have no faith will have to grin and bear it or not go anymore. Those of us who are prepared to wait a bit longer might be proved right that it is too early to judge.
Either way, it will only get better..... or worse... or stay the same...

| It could be argued that our impact comes from in the second row with Hame, Manu and Tickle? I think when Radford, Dowes, Yak and O'Meley play our team has a better balance hence wins against Saints away, Hudds at home and Bradford at home.

| I think in a game like tomorrows you want your old heads so I am happy to see the so called "safe" props being played. Moa will play on Monday to combat the size of Warrington.

And what happened to that "balance" against Celtic and Wigan ??
We have three props that offer hard work but no impact or go-forward and our fantastic coach insists on playing all of them ??  We have some players that have to bust a gut just to get their chance to play and are then dropped for even the slightest of misdemeanours and others that can continue to make the same mistakes game after game and are still in the 13 every week.
Agar is a grade C coach at a club that should be a grade A !!
Shocking Shocking decision !!!

I'd agree it could be argued our impact came from the 2nd rower if we could move the ball quick enough to isolate the likes of Manu and Lauaki in 1 on 1's but were so slow we give them the ball in standing positions up against 4 men. Manu in Leeds, Saints, Wire etc would be absolutley un-playable. For us he's just a player who doesn't take a backwards step. Other than O'Meley we have no rough, impact props. Cusack and Dowes are too similar and shouldnt be in the same team. Radford moving to prop has only given us another non impact prop. At least big Sam takes putting down. For some reason though Agar feels he can only do 2 10 minute stints. If thats the case why sign him?????
Our team didnt have a better balance against Saints, Bradford or d. It simply ed it down and reduced it to a mud fest. Of which we came through as our speciality isn't passing. Yet in dry conditions against the whipping boys in Salford, our 'challenge for honours team' took a battering
If I was Agar - instead of Moore as assistant I'd have an Indian Rain dance warrior!!!

Moa could manage both game as he only plays about 20 minutes anyway.'"
And thats the problem, why waste an interchange on 2 10 minute spells that include 4 drives maximum. Oh but he kissed the badge a few times last season so lets have a Moa lovefest.

Thats Agar's fault not Moa is is capable of doing more game time like he showed last season, but Agar doesnt like to give him it.
His go forward stats last season as fantasic (must eb one of teh best in the league) something we could do with this season when O Meley goes off, he can also offload which is unheard of for a Hull prop.
In fact his all round stats including defence for last season (in a very poor performing team) are very good.
