Hope things turn around in this game. Had a couple of 50/50's from Childs but still looking pretty grim.

They do

Hankinson showed nothing when he did play in SL

Don't need a kicker when you can't score tries
Why are you so biased against Hanky, Every chance you get you put him down
Who was Lockers again?
Touche :lol:

This is f*cking embarrassing. No ideas in attack. Shit in defence. Lam out.

Totally do not agree with this comment, Hankinson showed plenty of ability he was consistent and reliable, accept he isn't a world beater but showed alot more than we have at the moment!!

It seems crazy why he isn't being recalled
his goal kicking would be a welcome bonus

No idea what the loan deal is? but raises questions of the coach / management of the squad yet again?
Has your connection to Hankinson been confirmed yet?
🤷‍♂️ you're obviously obsessed 😂😂🤔

Mike wrote:Its true, but we chose not to play KR at full back back then for his developement. Now we're saying because we have no recognised full back and we're playing very badly, we should drop this young kid straight in. Clearly the plan for Hanley was to give him some first team experience and let him develop.

Maybe its the right thing to do to forget about the damage this could do to one player's development when the team need a short-term fix, let him sink or swim? But I would say that the coaching staff almost certinly had a plan for Hanley and it look like their following that to me.

I don't know what's the right thing to do TBH, but these decisions are not made because the head coach is an idiot. These are professional RL coaches making decisions that they think benefit the development of players and therefore the longer term health of the club, and weight those against the short-term success on the field. You might not agree with what they decide to do, but I'd say people in the club are giving this a lot of thought, and aren't idiots.
The trouble with all this is that if the fear is playing Hanley in his natural position is going to damage him what on earth do you think playing him on the wing is doing?

He looks like a fish out of water and has no general idea how to defend as a winger positionally. If the plan was to stick him on the wing to give him first team football that little experiment should have ended by now because it’s backfired.

When something isn’t working yet you keep doing it I think it’s fair to call the person making the same mistake week in, week out which is what Lam is doing an idiot.

Hanley is useless on the wing and it’s doing him no good so if he’s not going to play full back drop him for one of the academy wingers.
I think you're arguing that Hanley should be played at full back and anyone who doesn't agree is an idiot? Very similar to all your posts and very very close to a personal insult by logical induction.

I remember when
we could have reasonable
Debate but no more.

The web has won I suppose.

I await your post calling me an idiot (again).
