Not a good day at the office.
Did they announce the attendance?
Looked down on last seasons friendly

I want Chezzie and Poching out now. Too nice and not tough enough. I expect the board will only act if we get a 0-3 start and the performances remain as dire as they are at the mo.

Even that might be too late. This squad lacks biff, strength, mental fortitude and without Campo, any leadership. I also think deep down that some of these players don't trust one another defensively anymore and as a result our attack is now misfiring.

Another massive prop, big ball carrying second row and a top centre are priorities. Sack Tilse, Allgood, Larroyer, Cockayne and Donaldson. Marsh is not the answer.

Need to go left field on the coach front - Sinfield, Shaun Edwards, Glenn Morrison, Richard Marshall or a big name Aussie.

Think they announced 8900 ish 500 down on last year. As giddy as I am from the high we had today, friendliest do mean nothing. However your players with a couple of exceptions seemed to be going through the motions.

I can't see where our next win is going to come from. It's a good job that we worked on defence since the Huddersfield game or we would have been really hammered. I can't see us progressing under the current regime so we have make a change now. As for a replacement; is Justin Morgan available?

Re: Lack of defence : Sun Jan 24, 2016 5:45 pm  

Apologies for my optimism on saying hull would win by 20 to 30 pts,my fear and dread and fedupness on the forth coming season is strong with this one Luke, funtime Frankie you thought I was maybe too pessimistic on said words and you asked me for lottery numbers, tell me your not this way in feeling ever so slightly marginally worried.they have frank the tank we have Mitch the titch (in feckin heart).

Hi Hull smaller, so you should be giddy on your team, I am so envious of your side,whilst I knew your pack would be a force I was equally impressed with your edges ,quality everywhere,well done Pearson/Radford, as regards our players going through the motions,how very dare you ,some didn't have any motion.

Re: Lack of defence : Sun Jan 24, 2016 5:51 pm  

We're witnessing a man way way out his depth. This manifested itself in the Wembley debacle when the players appeared overwhelmed by the whole thing.

This is only going to get worse and worse. He is making a colossal mess which we need to halt now before it becomes unfixable.

Why wait Chester should go now or this season will be a disaster.

The reported new signing ain't gonna help either. Another square peg..

Why the f#ck did we buy Shaw. Plenty of players in that position. Horne and the bigot retained and Welham let go....why? Tilse...had he seen him play. We were desperate at the time but then offer a 6month contract.

No worries Salter will be back soon to shaw up the edges.....

I could go on and on. Biggest give away is we have the worst defence in the league and we change nothing. Did we lay a glove on Pritchard.....him and Sneyd didn't get their shirts dirty.

So, you don't know who you want to see replace him then? Why don't you just say so?

If I was privy to who was available then I'd hazard a guess. Here's one tho. How about Morgan back with Clint Newton as assistant. A pairing you wouldn't f*** with.
So if your in the Chezzie in camp. What do you think he brings?

Re: Lack of defence : Sun Jan 24, 2016 5:58 pm  

I like the sound of a Morgan/Newton partnership. At least they know what is required to win games but would they be able to do it with the current squad?

Re: Lack of defence : Sun Jan 24, 2016 6:05 pm  

Chester asked after the match if there were any injuries. He said two. Green has a hamstring problem but can't remember who the other player is. Can't remember!! Embarrassing!
