Twenty-two powerful radio galaxies have been searched for HI absorption. We find the highest probability of detecting HI in absorption among narrow-line compact (or small) galaxies or galaxies with indication of richer interstellar medium (i.e. with ongoing or recent star-formation). We discuss the difficulty in the interpretation of the origin of the HI absorption due to the uncertainty in the systemic velocity of the galaxies.
