tommy lee does a job for the team but we wana b one of the top teams and would he get anywhere near the saints or leeds squads - nope . he's not the only 1 aswel .

I read this that you are saying he would not get near saints and leeds squads so why should he get near ours. Therefore you are saying he is not good enough to be in the Hull 28.

Personally I think he is a good solid pro, not sure what else anyone is expecting for the money we are paying him (which cant be much)

I didnt mean to say you were after 28 superstars but the fact you think tommy shouldnt be a squad player made me think you have unrealistic expectations of what Hull's squad player quality should be.

interesting some of the teams people would pick

with manu on the bench which second rower would you have on the left hand side of the pitch?

apart from manu only other left side option i see is yeaman, though not really got another left side centre to cover him. all our centre and second row options appear to be right side players. hmm frustrating

who'd be a coach?

Berro or Briscoe or Hall left side centre

Dont see why players cant play on either side of the pitch though

Some players find it more difficult to pass to one side than the other. Kirk Yeaman doesn't suffer this problem, however!

perhaps play manu and yeaman all game but swap them over then manu gets bit of rest and yeaman gets more ball. could even use briscoe like that too

oh the agony of choices ...... a far cry from last year when only choice we had was who to bring in on loan to fill a shirt

You have got to give either dowes or cusack a rest against Salford. The amount of work these 2 get through is incredible and if we arent careful our whole season will hinge on if these players 'burn out' before the business part of the season is here. If fit washy and whiting need a run out as does moa; all potential at the minute and he needs game time to realise this before the hopeful arrival of Lauakai ( you know who i mean lol)

Or, alternatively, we could play them both, but only for about 40 minutes each. We could rotate the props in twenty minute spells - it's radical, but it might just work.

Moa needs 6-8 weeks in the reserves - or as long as it takes until he can manage at least two 15 minute spells.
