We need a hooker, Houghton gave away the penalty at Salford and it looked like his performances are starting to take their toll on Sunday, he really didn't have a clue about what was going on

Even though they have had a couple of weekends off not long ago?



Not saying you are wrong, but maybe they are just not 80 minute players who are doing the 80mins.

Manu seemed to really struggle when he first moved up to doing the 80, and (imho) has often been less affective then when he came off the bench. I personally believe that at best, he is a 60 minute player.

He have a hooker, he's just not played yet. Gentle recently said that he wouldn't swap Houghton for anyone, but he noticed that towards the end of last season he started to drop in quality. Heremaia could come just at the right time for us. What other club is going to bring in an NRL finalist hooker half way through the season?

Like has been mentioned the likes of Houghton, Tickle and Manu playing 80 mins every week dosnt help

Gentle identified this as an issue and looks to finish off teams before it comes to the last 10mins. www.hullfc.com/article/21494/gen ... um=twitter

you seem confident we'll see Heremia this season, wish I shared that confidence.

I'm confident in what the club say and I believe he could just be the boost we need.

Well, we didn't concede in the last 10 minutes. We just conceded 22 points in the 20 mins before it to make up!

Back for the Wire game.

Your forwards looked out on their feet in the last 30 today I said to mates early this week if we are still in with a chance in the last 20 we can do it.Even when you scored in the first throws of the second half I said to mates this lot are starting to tire.Think you need to look at your conditioner on two fronts players being able to go the distance and being fit enough to withstand the rigours of the game as an unfit player soon picks injurys up.

Maybe some of the players are suffering from not being able to take OxyElite Pro before the game anymore!



On a serious note, it's a huge problem. 8 points now we've lost this season due to not playing for 80 mins. We can't finish the game strongly.

Is it conditioning? Is it injuries? Is it anxiety? Is it complacency?



Only twice this season have I been happy with our 80 minute performance. Rovers at home and Leeds at home.

Happened with us a few seasons ago we would be flying away then second half other side would come back we just didnt have the stamina at the time to overcome it.
