    What is the point in having Costello in over Simm? He’s crap and clearly has no long term future here.

    Awful this, even worse when you consider the level of opponent.

    I just couldn’t understand the selection. He’s limited and being moved on as he has limited scope or upside. Pure short termism.

    Welsby frightens me anytime the ball goes near him.

    Should be a rather interesting second half

    We are missing the defence of Knowles, Hull KR are making Walmsley do a lot of tackling.

    Defensive contact has been so weak, they’re winning every collision. Badly need the next try or we’ll be in big trouble here.

    I don’t think he’s done much wrong at all to be fair. No worries with him carrying on next week. I’d still throw Simm in for Costello or even play Peyroux/Bentley there. I just don’t get it with Costello at all.

    He's improved in the second half and looks more confident, I'll give you that. I think we need to have a total rethink for next week.

    This should be in the bag now but it's been a hard watch to be honest.

Other young squad members who haven't been given any chances whatsoever aren't considered against HullKR.

    This coach is an imbecile and totally wrong for this club. Remember the term Agent Millward well this feels like Agent Wolff. No doubt we will win this game but it now seems less important in the context of the rest of the season for squad morale and squad development.

    FFS. Concede 1 try in three games and the coach is an imbecile.

    I feel a bit sh**e for Costello. He does nothing wrong but just doesn’t look top division standard. He never has a stinker to be fair to him. He just doesn’t look like he should be at this level.

    Good stuff. I, like some others, would probably have gone for a different line up, and we were a bit scratchy for spells, but we had a fair few excuses to lose there (including, it now emerges, that we haven’t had any coaching staff this week) and instead turned it around.

    Too many errors but happy to take the points and move on to the next one. We will have to be better.

    Scrappy win but lots of adversity before the game and during. Lost Fages and Taia in the 1st half and had Roby at 7. Still won comfortably in the end by 14 points. Might be a few changes next week though...

    A tough game for us that, Makinson, Percival, Knowles and then Zeb & Theo all internationals misssing.
    Thought Bachelor should have played instead of Costello but the coaches know best, good win in the circumstances.

    I think we should write this performance off due to the amount of disruption to our preparation and the shuffling of the side during the match. Thought Hull KR did a bit of a job on Walmsley and they managed to slow the ruck right down with the ref being a bit lenient.

    If Fages is not fit for next week then Woolf might keep Costello and Welsby in the side with Dodd making an appearance, with Roby back up in the halves.

    You're probably right but I would go:

    Coote, Naiqama, Simm, Bentley, Grace, Lomax, Dodd and it be made clear to Bentley why he's playing at centre and not second row.

    Scratch that, I forgot about Batchelor, he deserves a go at centre.
