Hull FC's long-serving centre Kirk Yeaman insists his team-mates are determined to reach next month's Grand Final to ensure head coach Richard Agar goes out on a high.
The Black and Whites yesterday confirmed the appointment of Australian Peter Gentle as the successor to Agar on a three-year contract from 2012 but the current boss has some unfinished business before he vacates the hot seat.
Hull wound up their Engage Super League campaign with defeat at home to Warrington Wolves last Friday but could still have four matches left this season, starting with Sunday's sudden-death play-off at Leeds Rhinos.
"It's business as usual," said Yeaman. "The new coach coming in is for next season. We still think we can pose a threat in the play-offs this year and hopefully send Richard off winning a Grand Final.
"Rich has been here a long time - this is his seventh or eighth season - and to send him off with a Grand Final would be really fitting for him."
Yeaman, who turns 28 this week, was given an early birthday present with selection in the 2011 Super League Dream Team, his first such award for five years, and is hoping his return to form can also help him win back his Test spot.
The Hull-born player has been in the international wilderness since Great Britain's 3-0 series win over against New Zealand in 2007, but was recently called into England coach Steve McNamara's elite training squad preparing for the end-of-season Four Nations Series.
He has joined club-mate and wing partner Tom Briscoe in the England reckoning and would love to take their pairing onto the big stage.
"It's a goal of mine at the beginning of every season to try and represent my country," he said.
"Hopefully I've given myself a good shout this season. To team up with Tom for England would be a dream.
"I'll just keep playing how I am for Hull and hopefully I might get the nod.
"I am playing with confidence and enjoying my rugby again. I can't wait for the next game to come along."
That next game is at Headingley on Sunday and Yeaman knows a play-off run would do his England prospects no harm but he acknowledges the size of Hull's opening task against their bogey side.
"We last beat them in 2007 and I think they've won the last 10 but we've got to beat them some time and hopefully it will be Sunday," he said.
"It's going to be tricky. They're a really good side on their own turf but we're confident we can go there and get the victory."
