Judge it after the first home game is my thought process.

If we don't receive the quality players promised by the agreement then questions have to be asked about the roll of our CEO.

The likes of Lane , Litten, Miloudi and Bienek should be the calibre of player we recieving under this so called improved deal not some 18 year old academy players.
However by the looks of things Carl's mate Radders has given us the shaft and disappeared in to the sunset with most of our player budget.

You can question all day long and you may be correct but there must be fat chance that his role will change prior to Autumn of 2021 given the World Cup announcement.

Those warm-ups meant nowt as far as Hull/Hull players were concerned.

But now it is serious, against Newcastle it is serious ... we need 5 very good Hull players in our side.
Against any rivals, 5 Hull players ... unless some of our lads are actually better, which us hard to envisage.
If the results work out who cares ...
But if we are losing and not getting the best available from Hull, there WILL be questions asked.

So let's see ... only eleven days to wait.

I think you will get the players you need from Hull.
The reserve squad will only be playing every other week which in reality means the whole of the reserve squad ( subject to first team requirements) should be available to Doncaster most weeks.
We dont know yet who will come over on Loan but the other three D/R will be established players,like Logan.
Also Rich Horne knows he can add the players he wants either backs or forwards in case of player injury or loss of form.
Very good chance of promotion this season in my opinion.

Thanks for that. I sincerely hope you are on the correct lines.

That's the theory, I don't see why it shouldn't work in our favour, but it is important we are strong vs Newcastle ... that's the marker for me.

There’s a big difference between every other week and most weeks. Do you know what would happen if say Horne wants Harris to play for us away at Workington but Hull want him to play in their reserve game ?

I think the main issue around this whole set up is the way its been sold to donny fans is we can expect to see the likes of Bineck, Maloudi, Harris and Litten most weeks when in fact that just isn’t going to happen.

Re: Lewis Bienek : Tue Feb 05, 2019 7:18 pm  

How can we know that just yet?

Re: Lewis Bienek : Wed Feb 06, 2019 8:11 am  

The first month of the season will be make or break for us, as we play most of our main promotion rivals.

A loss to Newcastle ,followed by a home loss to Hunslet and Workington and its good night Vienna as far as promotion is concerned.

Newcastle have spent big and have bought in so real quality in Finn, Carlise and Talapapa .

Then we have Hunslet , with the perma-tan man assembling a good looking squad that beat a reasonable Rhinos side last week.

Workington are always a tough nut to crack and Whitehaven away is no picnic .

So a very tough start , but if we can win three of these games I will be more than happy ,However if Newcastle hit the ground running then I fear a drubbing.

On the first half showing of Hull v Cas, Miloudi could well be playing for us at Newcastle.

I agree as i dont think Radford rates Miloudi. in any case after his first half performance he will be lucky to get another chance.
