| Going to be controversial as well - watching from home, I actually liked a few of Frawley's contributions in the first half. Frawley is getting tons of stick for some of the errors, but Croft is hardly taking control regularly enough either.
I'm a bit more worried about Miller who is really struggling in decision making. If only Cameron Smith had the same pace and agility - with his footballing brain it would make one hell of a player.
As Smith pointed out, defence was actually pretty decent, and Hull have some monster forwards that our pack managed to handle without it feeling that the result was ever in doubt. The problem was the failure of the attack to click again, and to convert scoring opportunities. It didn't help that Miller was the only first choice outside back on the field after Momirovski left the field, which was a shame as the Momster was playing pretty well in his combination with Lumb.
Searching for more positives, how about this: however bad our makeshift backline may have been, I wouldn't swap any of them for Sutcliffe and Tindall - completely anonymous. Has Tindall scored any tries yet in his Hull career?
Oh yes, and we won. And despite the doom and gloom, we're only 4 points off the league leaders, with a game against London to come. That's not latter day Furner or Agar territory yet. Things may well get worse but they could get better as well...

Aggressive bullying, do me a favour.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.
But you’ve got to keep believing.:86.jpg |

| I don't know if it's aggressive bullying but anyone who joined in is giving a pretty clear indication that they're a moron with limited social skills. Who would want to hang out or work with people like that?

| An under strength Rhinos team beat a struggling Hull. Better than losing the game. Leeds did just enough. It was lack of Hull attacking prowess and good defending that played the largest part of the victory.
It may just be my RL ignorance but I don’t get why Leeds cannot improve their kicking - it is surely harder to kick the ball exactly into the hands of an opponent than direct to an open area. So, why do Leeds keep kicking the ball to an opponent - often with little/no kick chase ?

See how far that aggressive bullying approach gets you in relationships and life. I’ll wait.'"
I never said that - what I suggested was there needs to be an outlet whereby substandard performances are recognised and fans have a platform to express opinions both positive and negative. Must of us learn more from constructive criticism than we ever do from a pat on the back. Of course you being a perfect individual have never called out a referee or an opposition player - be careful your glass house might just get pelted!!

That is a very interesting comment - why is it that people behave so differently when the attend or discuss sport than they ever would outside of sport. We see adults both male and female behave in an appalling manner in sports grounds - just flick through tick tok!!
