Looks impressive, hope he goes well but I've no idea what attracted him to the shower I support.

A sense of altruism I feel. Helping those in greatest need. We Black and Whites do appreciate it.

[29 Mar: SL: Paris St Germain v Sheffield Eagles (Retro Match Thread) Sky Sports - 7pm]

Excellent game. I really like the look of Entat. He'd be a great signing for Hull FC. If only!!

[Which player made you stand up in anticipation?]

He didn't play for my team (mores the pity) but I got excited every time I watched the great Lewis Jones.

Have seen proof of the head butt on kelly. 

No you haven't, otherwise it would have been posted on here. The headbutt didn't happen, therefore there is no video. Stop trying to be clever.

What a cracking game and a great result for Salford. Certainly puts last night's fiasco in the shade.

[11-15 Mar: The Coral Challenge Cup Match Thread]

Been watching on my laptop from kick off. No problems at all (unless your a Huddersfield fan).

Why, because I tell the truth, if you found that game last week good quality you are very easily pleased, some people implied it was good defence on show it wasn't it was completely devoid of ideas, and if you read on here the comments made by the FC fans they bemoan the football that their team plays.

We're entitled because its our team. Nowt to do with you!!

[6 Mar: SL: St Helens v Huddersfield Giants KO 7.45pm]

A great result and well earned. Unfortunately some posters are more interested in complaining about the reporting than in the actual performance. Just chill and enjoy the moment.

Please explain how you would work your 3 year exemption from relegation, could other clubs still be relegated? If so by the end of the 3 year of the first club gaining promotion we could have 3 teams "on exemption" that is 25% of the current number of teams in the division, is that feasible?

I await the reply to the above with interest. 

[6 Mar: SL: Wakefield Trinity v Hull FC KO 7.45pm]

Well I hope for their sake that Trin have him signed to a long term contract because he'll certainly be a target for the alleged big boys

Absolutely cracking effort, we lost Gaskell after a few minutes as well and was probably on the end of a massive penalty count as Saints struggled to make headway.

Superb performance and the perfect response to a flukey defeat and I guess we still haven't played anyone

Don't spoil the moment by making silly remarks. Just enjoy it while it lasts.

Thought we were going to defy all odds and win a James Child reffed game.  Better game to watch once he let both sides play.  Do we get a point?

Up the Trin 

Paranoia is a terrible affliction. You should seek help.

I've only ever been to 3 Hull SL games where Rovers haven't played against them and they've lost every one.

It was a wonderful afternoon yesterday

Glad you enjoyed it. Two teams providing some real entertainment. So much better than the dross you have to endure every week.

I hope he stays for another 5 years personally. Top class coach, they need to stick with him 

 

 

And he'd still achieve more than yours.

Taxi to Rayners outside with the engine running.

You probably need to explain this to those fans who don't understand  the relevance of Rayners to sea going folk.

Great result Trin, well done. Keep it going.

May the Lord forgive me, but I'm going for a Rovers win. They really impressed me on Friday despite being beaten.

Kendall made a strong case for 2 Referees in Super League.

Or just one who's up to the job. He spoiled what was turning into a classic.

Unfortunately Powell has a track record for sulking. I don't think Cas have ever been beaten by a better team (according to DP) and its time he put his dummy back in his mouth. Cas, of course, have never had the benefit of a dubious call. Well done Salford, I really hope you can go all the way!!

[The Value Of A Good Academy]

Wigan have schools and junior teams at clubs which are well coached. We also get a lot of the best athletes locally. We do, though, scout far and wide. Smithies is Halifax (I know he has leap frogged straight into the first team). As a club it has many advantages when it comes to running an Academy, and could get away with re-badging the amateur junior town team if it wanted. 

I am astonished a city like Hull can’t sustain 2 Academies, or at least produce one elite between them. I think I read that even that is being closed? We don’t help ourselves as a game a lot of the time. 

You are correct that the Hull joint academy is being closed. However, the players are reverting to their parent club so there should be two academies in the future, as far as I am aware.

I’d be more shocked if he’s in the squad at all

Or even considered.

[17 Aug: SL: Hull FC v Salford Red Devils KO 5pm]

Well I hope Ian Watson has got a replacement for Hastings lined up. He was brilliant yesterday and Wigan will be a much better team for having him in their ranks.
