Hull by plenty.

Were light upfront even with Ava and lack pace in the backs.

I fear you're right. Need to get a big prop brought in asap

Somebody on here was tipping us to win the treble last week. Now were set for a mullering at home to Hull.

Hope they dont play when our reserves play them. Our bunch of University lads and Fev rejects will kill them!

Think some people are massively over estimateing Hull, people making out they are major total contenders, rather than perpetual under achicivers. Radford will not see the season out if or when they inevitably hit one of their slumps, think they are 5 placed side at very best, yes they have been on the spend and packed the side with big Pacific Islanders, but have a crap coach and too many tantrum players with egos and attitudes.

They may win tomorrow but if they do it won't be the easy win some of our so called fans are willing for.

Hull are the SL version of Leeds in the 80s. Sign lots of players, get hyped up massively pre-season and achieve nadda.

They might win tomorrow, they might not but they are far too unpredictable to be tipping them to beat us so easily at The Emerald. Were more than capable of competing with them.

I think it is your last sentence that has serious questions, rather than the rest, which might prove correct. It’s how good we are which is questionable.

Exactly, I was going to compare them to us in the 80's genuinely newly think our camp are confident and are in a better place than this time last we, we seem pretty determined to have a real dig in his year, think we are 4-5 players and 2-3 years of being real contenders yet, but think we will win more than we lose this year and we won't be bending over as much as last year, think sides are going to have to work much harder than last year to get the points from us, and that should start tomorrow.

We are not where we need to be, but pretty confident we are not where we were, regardless of anything else think we should have more direction and some fight in us this year, and I do not see too much between us and Hull to say they are going to steam roller us with ease as some are suggesting.

Yeah i would agree with that. We arent where we need to be but as ive said previously i do think we can compete at home to Hull with Gale and Ward fit.

I know the point you are making is competing isnt good enough but at this stage that is where, i think, we are at currently.

I cant say Hull are this formidable outfit people are claiming but lets see. Maybe they will be. They have been so unpredictable for years that its hard to call.
