Good to see the ball moved around well today & plenty of support for the ball carrier.

Great performance from Miloudi - get him signed up quickly on a permanent basis before some other side snatches him away.

Don’t faff about with dual reg if Hull don’t think he has a future with them.

Not long ago Miloudi was a villain,now it seems he's the best thing since sliced bread,how times change.Horne's judgement has to be questioned as to why Miloudi wasn't named at stand off in the first place,especially considering his performance in Toronto. GM poses a good question though about signing him on a permanent deal,after all the money should still be available that was set aside for those PNG props.Allegedly.

Agreed .. we have got to get Miloudi.
He has proved he can play.
We got Richard Owen .. and he hasn't ... yet!

The first 20 minutes of most games are when teams are toiling it out down the middle. Saving Miloudi until there are a few tired legs around is the best way to go. Remember how Rob Burrow used to be dynamite when he came off the bench for Leeds? That was Hakim Miloudi today.

Personally, I don't see Hull wanting to release him anytime soon. They''ve got Jordon Abdul as first cover in the halves but what happens if Jamie Shaul gets injured? Sadly, we'll probably have to settle for having him on DR/Loan but he should certainly help get a few more bums on seats if he keeps playing as well as he's done today.

Can't the fault the way we played today and some of the set up plays which resulted in tries looked very good, think today proves that at any level if your willing to bust a lung and support the ball carrier tries will come, the only negative is were not gonna be playing sides like Coventry every week and without be harsh I thought they were really poor but to put 70pts on any team is an achievement and I was happy with the energy and commitment we showed today, great performances from charlie and tali (as always) thought hedges showed up well but miloudi when he's on his game he's in another league and if he can be consistent and cut out his petulance he can go as far as he wants. Whilst I'm on a roll I thought the tribute to don today was first class and well observed by all

Miloudi the new Kempy ...
The guy is brilliant and plays rugby how it should be played.

Where is hally's hot air when he is needed?

Donny Donny ... top of the league!

My question mark surrounding hakim has never been about ability it's obvious when he's firing and in a good place mentally special things will happen and today was a going day for him but what's saying the next game if things are going against him he won't throw a punch, sulk, or even spit? like all gifted sportsmen when he's good he's good but when things aren't going well he could be a liability, I'm more than happy to give him a go and believe everybody deserves another crack (lets hope carl and rh can get his head straight and he can fufill his potential).

Re: Dons V Coventry Sunday 18th Feb 2018 3pm : Sun Feb 18, 2018 8:53 pm  

If ... ifs and buts were pots and pans there'd be no work for tinkers' hands.

As for Miloudi... Miller is injured and the game has changed in Miloudi's favour.

Why people think they can second guess what Hull will do makes me wonder.

The crowd was almost 700 yet the interest is less than if we had lost.

Nothing to say?

Couple of the dummies Miloudi pulled off today were absolutely ridiculous. Thought there was still stuff to be learnt from todays performance, I know some of the lads weren't happy with their efforts, which, to say we ran in as many as we did in the 2nd half, is something.

Defensively, there is still stuff to pick up and improve on, again, I'm sure this will be worked on, but, this is the sort of match under previous coaches, we may have stuggled to break through with our style of play.
If we can keep this style all season, we're going to score a lot. Especially if we can keep Miloudi.

As for the Don tribute, it was tasteful and well done.
