Was poor tonight despite taking the try his tackling was poor at best. He needs to step up and show more grit and tackle better.

Think it's his first competitive game for a long time,have faith.

give the kid a break.he hasnt played for a year,hes bound to be rusty,thought he showed up well in patches

From where I saw it I though, despite is bad missed tackle on Hall at the end, he had a decent defensive game. The whole first half Leeds were targeting him and Crookes, constantly kicking and running at that edge, and we kept them out.

That's how I saw the first half too. If it had carried on, they might have got my MoM vote.

The kid has apologised on twitter which is very commendable but it was not all down to him - as long as he learns - you have to put your body on the line even if you end up crocked.

Arundel apologised on twitter for his poor display. I thought he and Crookes defended well first half.



Been out a long time, give him a chance.

I will never be convinced that Arundel or Crookes should've been signed. Crooks and Lineham both have more ability in my eyes, although I thought Crookes played well tonight. Arundel was o.k for 20 minutes, and poor for 60 in my opinion. I'm sure he'll have some good games though, and I'm in no way blaming him for our loss. Hopefully the reason for signing so many squad players, is that you can drop them after a shocker and replace them.

Sounds about right to me!

Presumably you gave Lineham and Crooks a chance in a Hull shirt before forming an opinion?

I'd be more worried about that "scrum half" of yours then Arundel. 1st game in nearly a year against the champs. Absorbed a lot of pressure throughout the game.
