Hulls pack. : Sun Mar 01, 2009 4:54 pm  

If the signing of Crocker does finally happen, and with the signing of Luauki playing at prop. What do people think of Hulls pack this season? Cusack is playing the best he has for Hull, Dowes and Radders both seem faster and stronger.

So with a pack and bench like this, How does it compare to other teams packs such as Leeds and Bradford?

Dowes - More often than not will play 70 minutes.
Berrigan - Enough said.
Cusack - Another who will easily play 50-60 minutes, and will garantee you a quick PTB and solid defence.
Tickle - Having a great start to the season, also top try scorer in the league?
Crocker - One of the best forwards in the world.
Radders/Washbrook - Both solid players, Washy who has a great future ahead of him.

Bench...

Manu.
Luauki.
Thackray.
Houghton.

Name me another SL team with an impact bench as good as that.

Without a doubt the majority of people will say that it is an average pack and bench. So compare your teams to the above.......

Why dont you wait until, Luauki and Crocker arrive at the club before you spout your drivvle of how good your average pack are? Jog on!! 10-5, 10-5.....42-6, 42-6

Thats fair enough, I was just asking what other teams thought about it... But as the inbred rovers fan said it's an average pack but I wouldn't expect any different from them drug addicts off preston road.

Hulls pack (without Crocker) is ordinary IMO. However, they're punching above their weight this season and look VERY good.

Compare my teams actual pack with one which you haven't got and are very unlikely to get? What's the point? You appear to be very insecure
