very poor performance ut i couldnt understand why a few players were out of position -
Cudjoe - Right centre ?? Was caught out several times and Hull scored all their tries down his side.Not a centre and we had Lolesi on the bench???

Faiumu - Loose forward - Looked lost most of the time,hes an out and out Hooker.

Why didnt Lawrence play before Cudjoe?

I think Scott moore needs moving to the halves with Robinson,He has good hands and can kick,Brown is a centre in my opinion.

Our wingers were very poor i felt.

There is too much pressure on Robinson to create thats why we need a different 6 to brown.

Thought Wild was very average for his standard.

We also lacked some size upfront,we missed Finnigan,crabtree and Griffin.

Moore makes good yards from the play the ball so i'd keep him there.

Agree, Aspy more so than Hodgson.

Totally agree although thought Brown had one of his better games last night

Thought Wild was very average for his standard.
Yeh noticed his half arsed attempts a few times last night

We also lacked some size upfront,we missed Finnigan,crabtree and Griffin.
Very true

Unlikely - according to Sky Sports, the bone was sticking out last night

leroy cudjoe was poor last night but so was the rest of the team. leroy played in centres as he has been training there and he played briliant at bradford last week. time for bruno to come back and griffin. surely griffin has to play now crabtree, finnigan and raleigh are all going to be missing.

having seen the game on sky i would agree that cudjoe and faimu had v poor games , and at times our wingers did us no favours . i thought brown had a top game at stand off , made breaks /half breaks , backed up the play . his , indeed our kicking game is not up to scratch . this could also be said of hodgy`s conversion attempts , the bottom lin is that we lost by 4 points , and he missed 2 very kickable ones , when tickle was banging them over from the touchline .i`m not sure of his defense either , i remember reading a post from an aussie guy , who said he was great going forward , not too hot on the other side
korky is the poorest of our props , and although its early days , 3 years seems a long time to put up with him if he doesn`t get better.
moore , the guy from saints?, looked ok at half back .

Hodgson just doesn't have the size to be able to cope with the one on one tackles a bigger fullback could.

We were poor but there are bright spots. 4 tries each when we were that bad being one of them.

Tells me that Hull FC weren't up to much either.

Hull will also be capable of much more than they showed last night. In terms of playing to potential they'll have been at ~50%ish. Us? I'd say ~20%, very poor last night. Very poor indeed.
