From 3 Grand Finals and 3 NRC Comps, he won one from six and has form for blowing the big one.... repeated again three years ago in SL. Ridding himself of the "nearly man" tag will always be the monkey on his shoulder.... That said, at both Fev and Cas he took both teams to the top of the table to perform consistently, got a good team spirit going and played entertaining rugby. A nice bloke n'all.

If he can do that for us, I wouldn't complain at all. I honestly think he could completely transform us if he comes. That means it won't happen.

Would like to see Cas make a play for Danny Ward if so. Well you have a point there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2 of the 6.5 years he was here. In the other 4.5 years, we didn't even make the playoffs and got stuffed along the way. It's the league form that needs addressing first.

To be fair I do feel some of the disquiet from Hull fans. There is no club contending for honours that have been whacked as many times as Hull over the last 3-5 years. Some of the huge beatings at home have been pretty shameful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manner of our defeats under Radford were shameful. How can teams just give up the way we have over the years yet still win some big games? Huge culture change needed. That begins with a new coaching team, not new playing team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muckymunksy Posted October 31, 2020 Share Posted October 31, 2020 Don’t see it happening if I’m honest but I wouldn’t be so bothered as I would of been a year ago. Think we need fresh ideas not many decent coaches out there tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
