I'm not sure I believe it, I've seen the same thing written on Facebook, but it's always from people who won't see any critism of Houghton, mainly as they are his mates or mates with his Dad.

Exactly this

Same with Taylor

Cause people know them they won't criticise them

Be his first good game in years, maybe needed a change.

I wonder if we consider Smith in the centres.

Whilst we have a leeds reject who's done nothing last 2 games

People hounded radford out and we're worse with Hodgson

Loads hounded Eddie and Stevo out the sky coverage got to a all time low

Careful what you wish for again .....

You clearly wasn't there. My hubby commentated on the game for BBC Leeds and said he okay, but nothing special, throwing the ball into touch so still has the Hull way in him! Bowden was poor, so no, I don't think we've made the wrong choice letting either go.

Worth reading this, he even states he likes to play hooker, so maybe he doesn't want to play as the 2nd hooker and get very little gametime, as he knows he won't sub Houghton and he will be sat on the bench for 50 minutes like Cas away.

You see we read that report and I just don’t get it

Hodgson talks a good game and says all the right things but then does the opposite.
The way he describes Lovodua there is exactly what we need from hooker but he never plays him there.
Why not?

I really like Hodgson and would love him to be successful but, as I said, I just don’t understand the decisions he makes .

Early in the season I could understand not playing Lovodua hooker as Gale and Reynolds kept getting banned or injured. But now there is no reason to not try him at hooker.

Soz forgot your hubby was Einstein

Yeah cause the players we have are covering themselves in glory

Shaul and bowden hardly got a chance last 2 years literally fed on scraps

Walker is awful and won't be a super league player in 3 years time please quote this dave Chris etc

There are two reasons those two hardly played, they were injured or when they played they were rubbish.

Not sure Walker is the answer, but Shaul and Bowden certainly weren't. No coincidence they have both ended up at the bottom club.
