If we could kick goals, the Newman decision doesn’t matter. It’s all ifs and buts, although at 4 try’s to 2, I think the best side on the day won.

Watch the formation at the scrum before the winning try. Hampshire and French are stood side by side directly behind the scrum - French and Smith break right and Hampshire goes left. Caused a moment of hesitation from Gannon which created an opening - very smart and difficult to defend.

Nice to see a guy in Hampshire look comfortable in just throwing a short pass. That ball to Wardle could’ve hit his knees or smashed in to his face this past few months.

Just like to echo the well done's to Rocky, first full game back after a bad injury into a team that had to be a bit low on confidence and a knockout game to boot, well played sir.
Also, same as everyone I wish we could get another 10mins/game out of him but I thought Mago caused the Leeds pack all sorts of bother when he was on, they seemed to have all sorts of bother bringing him down.

Again, credit where it s due, we have some of the best scrum attacking moves.

As the above poster mentioned, french and Rocky lined up together , the pass delayed a fraction and everyone naturally follows French and the right side switch off a split second. That's the beauty of having two pivots with pace .

If Tommy is behind the scrum planning he's doing a great job.

Helped turn the game along with Nsemba. He’s been pretty good this past few weeks. His concentration levels look to be up and the silly mistakes down. IMO it’s too little, too late and him showing he can concentrate and play well now only adds to the feeling that it’s right that he’s let go. We need players who don’t need a new contract offer to motivate them and concentrate their minds. Having a player needing to earn a move elsewhere in the next few months could be handy though.

I think he’ll be kept on but they should be having a serious talk to him. I think he’s lucky in the sense that other than Satate there isn’t really anyone as a realistic target. He’s knocked the silly knock ons on the head which is good he needs to stick with his role of running hard and being awkward to put down. He had a few good offloads last year (the one at Warrington comes to mind) hopefully this will come about again but for now the risk isn’t needed. He’s looking like he’s trimmed down which is good. Needs work on bigger minutes

If I was the club I would probably say to him, line in the sand and prove over the next four to six weeks that he's worth keeping on for another twelve months. The ball really is in his court.

Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

Re: Leeds (a) CC : Tue May 23, 2023 4:26 am  
Hull rumoured to have signed Franklin Pele he is an absolute monster in the mould of the traditional impact prop.

I’m personally not sure this is they style of forward we go after any more though.

I think we have burned by their inconsistency too often. I think Mago will go if we can secure a suitable replacement capable of doing bigger minutes.

Dupree would be ideal. Very rarely does a player put in a transfer request and not end up leaving and it will be interesting to see if he becomes available if we go after him.
