Col81 Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 Saints fan here, watched this guy for a couple of months I love his enthusiasm he deserves the job the players clearly love him.

MZH Posted November 12, 2020 Share Posted November 12, 2020 It may already be the case that we have agreed terms with someone else and just waiting for the season to end before announcing. If that's not the case then I think Last has now done more than enough to get a shot. He took over in the toughest circumstances you can imagine, big question marks over him, unable to do anything with the players for the first few months due to lockdown. Then we come back and promptly get thrashed by Salford. Then a big covid outbreak in the camp. To call it a baptism of fire is an understatement. I was firmly of the opinion that he should have gone along with Radford. Yet week on week we have seen consistent improvements. Our attack looks slicker, our desire in defence is better. When we have had off days we have still kept our heads up and given it our best shot. He loves the club and the players obviously have loads of respect for him. I'd be more than happy to give him the job at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wellsy4HullFC Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Think he's finally found a working balance in the team with Connor at fullback. A good running 6 to compliment Sneyd and we'll have a great triangle there next season. Shaul may miss out next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLANTISMAN Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Deserves the job however maybe its better for him to be assistant in the long term as its a less sackable position and he seems very attached to Hull FC. Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A sort of relaxed, laid back magic type of thing. (I'm on my second whisky). I saw your post here the other day and I`ve been meaning to get back to it. Mate there has to be some advantages of getting older and I think looking back on bygone eras is one of them. A young whipper snapper tried to tell me on here recently that there were two markers so that they could split and defend either side of the ruck, I kindly pointed out to him that there were two markers because `once upon a time ` the marker used to strike at the ball and the second marker was there to pick it up. Kids, they know it all. As I say to my kids, I like my experts to be old. I saw Irish liked your comment, no coincidence he`s got a few miles on the clock as well, no offence Irish, anyway mate I understand the sentiment of your post perfectly. Hooroo.

Chris Taylor Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Hull is one of the toughest gigs in SL imo, it has so much potential but never lives up too it and is far too inconsistent. Andy seems well respected and you can see that in the performances recently, I would imagine he'll be assistant next year with Daryll Powell at the helm. For me, Daryll has done something remarkable at Castleford and they will only see how good he is when he's gone. But he needs a new project and Hull is perfect for him. It has a good youth system, and they can easily spend the full salary cap. 2008 RFL Wakefield & District Young Volunteer of the Year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
