| A classic hahahaha.
Was a decent finish. But the game itself was far from classic. Just shows the current quality in SL

Agreed. Things were way better back in the day, when there was real quality in super league.
Kind regards,
The 2001 CC final.

| I thought the defence in those conditions was superb. I don't think we really appreciate how much defensive structures have improved in the last 20 years. Fans point to the decline of attacking skill, but the improvement in defence, and the size of the collusions has improved massively. There simply isn't the space, or time on the ball there once was. It was certainly the best final for at least a decade.

| I thought it was an enjoyable match.
Sandow was awful in the second half - didn't even look interested half the time when Warrington had the ball never mind in defence. His attempt on the high kick that led to hulls try was embarrassing (sort of thing you see in a kids game)

| Cracking game. Fantastic defence and good attack too. Especially in the conditions.
I think Wire had Hull at 10-0 up but couldn't compose themselves enough to manage the game properly. But huge credit to Hull for coming back.
Both teams were a credit to the sport today.

| I thought it was a good game, last 20 minutes was a bit crazy but enjoyed it!
Sad to see empty seats mind you.

| Thought the attacking quality was poor, but the defences excellent. You could argue the attacking nullified because of good defence, but most of those errors were self enforced.
Glad Hull won the game, but do think it was a case of Wire losing it, rather than Hull winning it. Warrington were the better side over the 80, and even at the end should have scored. That lost ball wasn't down to Houghtons tackle, but simply Currie's control.
Thought Daryk Clark was the best player on the pitch by a long way. By contrast I thought Ratchford, who I rate highly, was the reason Warrington lost the game, and very poor. His positioning was poor, and his whole demeanour came across complacent.

| Quote: ThePrinter "Tony Smith's sides as I've mentioned before on here lose a lot in big playoff/cup games when the scoreline is close (with the 2004 GF being the exception to the rule) and wins come from getting a few scores clear. If it's even or very close approaching the final 20 then I think Hull will do it and going by those recent results listed above it looks likely it'll be close.'"
Called it, Tony Smith has lost nearly every close big game he's coached.

| As a final it wasn't the classic some are already trying to make it out to be. The first 60 mins was pretty average, good defence especially from Warrington but nothing to write home about if you saw the exact same in a league game. The last 20 got it going and I agree with Gotcha, whilst obviously Houghton's presence was needed for the tackle, he didn't actually force the ball out, Currie just stone cold lost it when he shouldn't have even with Houghton there.
The talk a few pages ago about 3/4's.....showed exactly today Wire's shortcomings in that department.

| Classic? surely not,i thought it was a pretty dour game that came to life only in the last 10 minutes when Hull pulled it back to 10-6.

Houghton didn't physically force the ball out but he did manage to grab the ball carrying arm and pin it back. That meant that Currie couldn't reach out and had to rely on sliding over. If the pitch was wet he would probably have got there, but thems the breaks. The impressive thing was that Houghton got there at all after playing 78 minutes in that heat and being involved as much as he was.

The irony of that tackle is that Currie had just swatted away the eventual Lance Todd Trophy winner in Sneyd like he was a little fly.

| I suspect Warrington would have won had they not lost Bodley, they rely on him a lot for direction.
Also as I said on the other thread I thought it was an enjoyable match.
