I hope he does. I was one of the Saints fans who didn't like the fact that Rush and Brown wanted to let him go, so I hope he kicks on and gets the chance to really shine as I'm sure he is capable of doing.



Well done on your turnaround this season. Shows how important a coach is!

Five try assists for Gaskell today

It's not official and has not been confirmed anywhere.

That was my understanding , all just rumours at the moment

First game I've been free to attend since Lowes took over and I was impressed by the improvement in our play.



Whether that is the gameplan/coaching by Lowes or the weight of relegation being lifted I'm not sure, it's perhaps a mixture of the two.



Seems like a lifetime since we won three games in a row (apparently 2 years ago) but the players are now full of confidence. Shame it's not May or June but it bodes well for next season in the championship. We seem to be generating a bit of momentum now both on and off the pitch.

The biggest problem in English RL is that clubs are so desperate to fill their teams with rubbish overseas players and they couldn't be bothered with persevering with some English players.



Arundel and Pitts have always been good players but when you have a club with a coach and CEO who would rather Talanoa, Sa to Arundel and Ben Crooks, the only way is down for hull.

I noticed Arundel having some "verbals" with his Hull team mates on the way in for his first try - maybe he feels Jimmy is a coach he would prefer to be playing for?

You should have rung the police on your merbile phern. It's just not rart. It puts you off you parnt.

Im not being funny, but Arundel is pants, he had plenty of chances and was awful. Talanoa has been one of the highlights of an otherwise dire season. Sa will also be a great signing once he's got a pre-season under his belt. Completely agree about Crooks though, Radford has managed in six months to remove any sort of confidence from him. Dream team to Doncaster says it all.

To be honest, we owe Hull thanks for allowing us to use their players. Other clubs have not been so gracious, it has to be said.



As for the match, I'm mostly puzzled by Radders' tactics in the first half; surely he'd noticed there was a ruddy gale blowing down the field? His team certainly didn't make any real effort to utilise it, unlike the Bulls who made it count, by pushing FC back with long kicks. It was a strange game, some bone shuddering tackles went in along with some pretty naive defensive stuff from both sides. It's easy to suggest it was a 'nothing' game, but some of the tackles suggested the players cared all right, so this 'switching off' in defence, by both sides, is hard to understand.

They didn't need that wind in the first half, there was another Gale intent on helping Hull FC for half the match.

Is Arundel pants or is it his coaches. Up to Jimmy arriving I would agree with you but since then he has improved quite a lot. Also why did Hull buy him, was it because he was a promising young player at Castleford or Pants. Seems a lot of so called good players become Pants at Hull considering how much they invest in players.
