Fans mindsets.

Im not.saying im happy but look at the Cas highlights we are just as exciting as Cas we just had very poor discipline.

French is looking good
Farrel is looking good
Hasting looked good.

We are not using the big forwards we have.

Backs cant play without the forwards laying the platform, Bullock should be playing.

Spot on. The Club has recognised that we have a problem in the forwards, they have tried to rectify that issue by signing Burgess, Bullock and Clark, the problem is that the latter two are not being selected.

Burgess should be fined especially if he is one of our marquee signings.
Keep charging him until he’s within a certain fitness and weight.
Disgraceful how he looked on the first game of the season, you could tell straight away he wasn’t up to fitness

But lets face it we dont have a professional looking after fitness bitcon has gone, Johnson has nothing on his CV to suggest he should be anywhere near a first team job apart from the golden ticket of being one of the old boys

Think GB was fit and in great condition. However, he obviously wasn't match fit.

A few games in the reserves would have done him the world of good but the pressure was on to play him regardless.

Edwards had a very good point!

The Hull derby was indeed a cracker, which our lumpen effort into stark relief. Cas didn't have to be brilliant, we gifted them field position time and again, and they duly took advantage. Throw in poor discipline and poor execution, and it's a surprise in a way the score-line was as close as it was, even though were only a roll of the ball away on one or two occasions.

I just watched Lam's comments post-match on TSLS, which I hadn't seen before, and he seemed lost for words. He wouldn't jack it in, would he?

It also struck me that it's a good job Lam wasn't the guest on TSLS this week, when they had to really spin it out because of the cancelled games. God knows what he could have mumbled about! Tune in next week to find out!
