Rankin has the quality, just needs more game time. he is only young and hasn't been here long. we have to give players a chance to get used to our game, our style etc.



Stay with the same side for me.

think hull need to give miller a chance,we are still suffering from the lack of a regular no 7.saints identified they needed a 7 and went out and got one.i think rankin needs to play no 6.heremaia is a good interchange hooker.hes been tried in the halves for a full game and goes missing.

@James_Smailes

Carvell, Tuson, Watts all in contention for this week. Tough decisions for Radders

Carvell for Pitts if he 100% although Pitts did nothing wrong but not sure who you could drop to bring the others in.



TBH I would send them both to Doncaster

Well this is my first post so here goes. Play Miller drop Rankin. See what he can do. If he isn't up to it then let him go.

Oh and for gods sake don't sign Hall.

The best thing about Heremaia IMO is his impact around the ruck. If we start him in the halves & then move him to 9 after 20-30 minutes he's not going to have the same impact. We need to play people in their proper positions which means Heremaia needs to stay away from the halves.

Miller in for Rankin, should be enough to beat Bradford, would give Carvell, Tuson & Watts another week.

I think it's too early to start chopping and changing. The only change I would make would be to bring back Carvell if he's fit.

Got to agree with you. Carvell has only missed one game and should come back into the fold if he's passed fit.

It's such a long time since Tuson and Watts had a game that surely the dual reg option is the ideal route to get them back up to match fitness without the danger of them breaking down in a first team SL game. Seems like common sense and isn't that one of the main benefits that other teams use the DR system for! Besides, who would we drop, certainly not Bowden who's pushing Pea for the tag of being our best prop as the moment.

personally i would stick with the same team barring a few changes, too many people jumping on the back of a player cos he has had 2 average games, for me the last two games have been tough, we need to give rankin time to settle in, he is only young and we as fans do not need to be degrading him at all, its only 3 games in and already we slagging our players off, may get shot down for this but heres my team i would go with;

need to give certain players time and dropping is not the answer this early in the season.

What's Rankin done wrong? Is it that he's not set the world alight that fans are bagging him?

Thought we all wanted the team picked on form? Rankin was off form at Saints and poor against Wire, we have other options, why not try them?

If he has a decent game against Bradford does that give him another stay of execution? How long do we let poor form go on for?
