Be interesting to see if Watkins gets charged & banned the same as Jack Brown fog tipping Field in the tackle. Somehow I doubt it.

Interesting conversation with Brian Carney, Tomkins & Wilkin on SKY tonight confirming what we knew already that Salford are one of the lowest spenders on the cap. Think AP would do well to offer a position at Hull to the person that sorts their recruitment and deals out.
The difference to how they operate vs how we operate is huge , neither club owns their own stadium either yet despite Hull having much bigger fanbase we still seem to be losing ground.

We’ve also had squad fillers even in successful side too though haven’t we? You can’t have worldies in every position especially in salary cap world.
Roberts is only just about 22 he’s not far off academy age really; like I said can see him being a squad player but he’ll have his work cut out to retain a place in the 17 going forward.

15 years today since we spanked them 60-8 with Orr converting all 10 tries and the infamous shirt burning incident.
Would be good to get a result, but Wire look to be a big side and as the season progresses we will tire from endlessly tackling bigger units.
Will be interesting to see the crowd numbers and if they remain high....

Maybe the new rules will work in time. Are the same rules being adopted in Australia?

So if he’s been decent defensively why does that mean he’s overall poor tho?
It’s disappointing he’s picked up an injury, I wouldn’t say he’s been poor, I wouldn’t say he’s been great, like quite a few other players.
Gutted about this, I think that 20m yardage gain and 8 tackles a match will be really difficult to find in the rest of the squad. Not to mention the his try scoring record with us.
Good luck to him, things havent worked out, but he's been one of our worst ever signings.

With hindsight, the game should have brought these rules into the junior leagues 15 years ago when the talk around head impacts in contact sports started, so that we'd now have a generation of players and coaches who had already adapted to the new tackle height.
I think it will be chaotic for a while, but the refs will become more lenient over time, as Clearwing mentioned. That's basically what happened with the current rules for most of the games history. Any borderline tackle was usually let go. Читать дальше...

My comment was relating to a game back in early February if you check the posting date.
I still think we've coached some directness out of his game though.

I know the squad isn't out until tomorrow but Burgess has confirmed no Williams (injured), no Fitzgibbon (family leave due to bereavement) and a couple of others who are likely to be missing too due to 'off-field issues'. Ratchford and Hayes in the halves. Be an interesting challenge on Sunday. I like the way London play but they make too many errors.

Powell is trying to recruit him for Wakefield, so we should take heed of that too.

There are certain things that really need to change. The levelling up of penalty counts, etc. If a referee wants to know what the penalty count is, he should keep it himself ... and not ask for it from some stats man. Why does he even to know? If he's doing his job properly, it's irrelevant what the penalty count is.

I thought Walmsley morphed into a Kershaw a few times on Saturday with runs across field instead of his usual aim for the try line.

I like the look of him, looks like he’s got a bit of a spark but him being a regular next year to me comes across as a cheap option.
Defensively doesn’t look ready to me and Wigan exploited that in the friendly. Although in his defence litten was defending at centre which probably exploited it more
