I wasn't there last night but I'd stick with Yeaman. By all accounts he had a poor game but he tends to play well against Leeds and a bit harsh dropping him after one game imo.

But Thomson has started the season great. I can't think of many players that can play back row, prop and centre aswell as he does.

Radford looking for a poor game from Yeaman so he can include Michaels at centre.
Problem is Sa has a shoulder injury so once again cant string two or three matches together without injury so I guess it will be Yeaman and Michaels at centre for Leeds.
If Shaul is fit we have to find a place for Rankin.The team is desperate for some pace.

You must be a very popular fellah in Hull to know what the majority of the fans what don't post on here have said regarding how high up the table you'll finish, (what was more likely said was) oh dear are you having second thoughts or is it you just cannot be bothered to look what the majority on here did say, either way it does not matter as you seem to be the only one bothered by something you have chosen to take out of context to make an issue out of it.

i look forward to your evidence to support your initial statement then rather than cheap heresay. somehow i don't think we'll be seeing it

Love to know the stats of how many games we have won after a break, I'm sure we always get beat, it's like the players switch off with the free time and can't get in the right frame of mind for the game.

But if you read their tweets, they're dying to get back on the field and can't wait to get stuck in.

Just seen the trys, some really poor defence trys especially out wide on Chase. A bit disappointed with a couple of Rankins one on one attempts, could have maybe done better for three of their try's.

My team for Leeds

Shaul
Talanoa
Rankin
Sa
Lineham
Pryce
Sneyd
Paea
Houghton
Bowden
Mini
Ellis
Westy

Cunningham
Feka
Watts
Thompson

IMO opinion we have a really strong squad, leeds obviously will be a really tricky opponent, however there should be no excuses for not getting into the top 8. Unfortunately missed the game on saturday, glad to hear Rankin had a good game...i'd love to see Michaels, Rankin and Shaul play together..would be great if they could all fit into the 13 man squad, if it was up to me i'd like Yeaman to miss out...like i said didn't see how he did on Saturday but his ball supply is really frustrating in terms of putting in his winger to score

i could not bring myself to watch the 'highlights', but I watched these attempted Rankin tackles live from the corner of the West Stand and they all looked pretty half hearted and feeble.
Given the level of strapping on his shoulder, which was then re-applied at the beginning of the 2nd half during the injury stoppage; i assume he was carrying a knock which he didnt want to aggrevate by tackling.

If injured, strange to play him in a role which was very likely to call upon the need to tackle one on one.

Not seen it back yet but Murdock saying in HDM Lineham's disallowed try was a definite try?

Some of us could see this before the season started.

Criminal to have the bin man & Yeaman down the same side.

It's on the Hull FC Live highlights. The camera angle is not good, so the actual grounding is not seen, but there is nothing to suggest it wasn't a try.

That's the problem with armchair viewing, it's not much better than RH if you're interested in getting a full view of the game.
