Sangare is 5th prop. We need another 17 player prop.
Hopefully with some real fight in him,wether that's hard tackling or hard running I domt mind

See Kai Morgan going to Salford. Another half back light at the club. Good luck to him wonder if he will join the list of Leeds players to do well elsewhere in the next few years.

Yeh saw that.
We've got no half backs, so we let one go.
He might not have made it at Leeds, but he wouldn't be the first academy product to move on and do well elsewhere.
At the moment it's difficult to see any clear strategy at the club regarding recruitment and retention.

Sadly, to the point where I really have no interest in the todays game or the rest of the season.
..........cue accusations of fair weather supporter.
But this season has been pretty diabolical. Really awful to watch. Worst for quite a while for me.
Just hope we can do some quality recruitment in the coming months and reset and go again next year.

Enjoy the sunshine if you are going over.
Might be the only positive this aft....

Others will know better than me, but I would have said McCormack and Sinfield are better prospects. It's inevitable that clubs like Salford, who I don't think run an academy, are going to pick these lads off.

Hope you're right Arthur.
Feels like the expectations for Sinfield particularly, are high.
But seems risky putting all eggs in one basket with young players.
Didn't we let Dupree and Trout go because we thought Baldwinson was the next JP??

Err no. Baldwinson went yonks ago. Nothing to do with Trout or Dupree. I know it's hard, but do try and cheer up. We do have some very good young players coming through, just need to support them with some senior ability and class.

Yeh maybe I'm thinking of someone else...
Anyway, hope you're right.
Love seeing young academy products making the grade.

Handley being out is typical of this season's misfortune on top of poor performance. People need to be forgiving of sinfield today to be asked to step up at this stage of the season I don't think it's been managed well.

Re: RD 24 | Hull FC (A) : Sat Sep 02, 2023 1:13 pm  

In some ways it’s a perfect game for Sinfield to start, no expectations
