Cameron Scott and Connor Scott both in our 19. No Sanderson, I wonder if Liam Harris is being considered as Full Back.

It's a possibility as Lee Radford hasn't been too happy with Hakim Miloudi at full back recently. He might be wanting to consider other options.

With Jake Connor (playing at centre) getting injured on Friday night, and probably being out for the season, Cameron Scott might see some more first team opportunities although, again, I suspect Lee Radford doesn't think he's quite ready for Hull's first team.

From our point of view, if we're going to mount a serious promotion challenge we need to have a relatively settled side between now and the end of the season but that's not going to be made any easier with Hull's continuing injury problems.

Wow that was a surprise seeing Abdulls name on team sheet. Wouldn't have thought we'd see him again this season after that bad injury

He played at full back in Hull's win at Huddersfield last week and got the Sky Man Of The Match award. Lee Radford said that Stevie Wonder must have been voting for him!

I suspect there was spot of 'insider trading' going on as the Racing Post had tipped Miloudi to be Man Of The Match at 12/1. All the votes were probably from the people who'd backed him!

Saturday result: London Skolars 20, York 22.

Nearly a major upset!

Just goes to show how nothing can ever be taken for granted.

Except that winners win in general when push comes to shove.
Are you getting the idea yet?
Nearly an upset is not an upset.
Not trying to be awkward and all.

A write-up about DR in the York Press today was interesting:

"The Knights had received a blow the night before the game (at Skolars), though, when dual-registered Hull KR full-back Will Dagger pulled out with a calf injury.

That meant he could not make the requisite fifth DR appearance for York in time to be eligible for the rest of the season.

The four dual-reg players who are available for the business end are Will Oakes, Matty Marsh, Jordan Walne and Josh Johnson – though none turned out here. "

The Dons website doesn't list the player stats from this season so I can't tell which of the Hull lads will be qualified to play for us after this weekend, presuming the quote about eligibility in the York Press is correct.

Of course the waters could be muddied with regards to Liam Harris. Technically he won't have played five times for us on DR but can we assume the RFL will take into account the games he played for us whilst being our player? From memory, I would guess Hakim Miloudi, Jez Litten and Jack Sanderson will qualify. I'm not sure about the others. Does anyone have the appearance details to hand?
