How Ellis got 10 minutes was bizarre, how Burrow didn't get the same or even a red is just ridiculous. If we get you in the semi finals, very confident we will beat you

The game was too stop start to ever get any pattern going. Thought we were good in bits and pieces but will have to improve plenty by play offs.goal line defence was shabby at times. Fair play to Hull they really dug in there for the full 80 and we never fully shook them off until a couple of minutes from the end.

We will have to be much better than that if it is a full strength Hull coming over 100 percent focused in the semis but good we have the home berth pretty much sown up now.

Reckon we'll have a rematch of that game in a few weeks in a semi final. One that could go either way.

I don't, it all depends on St. Helens v Wigan & Wakefield v Hull FC. With FC having Wigan next week, Wakefield having St. Helens, and then Wakefield v Hull FC week after, it could go to the wire.

We have Wakefield at home

Either way, you have Wakefield and that could be the game that sees you into the top four.

Not sure, the effort Hull put in backing up and will have to do the next few weeks to get a playoff spot it's going to be a tough ask, they may have been better resting a lot. Going to have to back up week after week after week from now on on top of the last 6 days, be a big ask to still something left in the gas tank.

Well we nearly backed up tonight 3 days after the Homecoming so with a proper rest between games, 2 home games on the trot and potentially a ref that gives red cards for headbutts, then we should be ok

We nearly backed up in 2014 against Saints and played with 12 men for 60 mins. It catches you up down the line even with a full week inbetween games.

I think Hull will finish 4th at best. saints will be 3rd

Think I'd rather finish fourth than third, that means away at Castleford doesn't it? Rather play them than Leeds at Headingley. Full strength though I believe we'll eat either teams. Although doesn't look like we'll be at full strength for the rest of the season with Talanoas injury.

Thought Hull looked loads more dangerous than Leeds tonight. Every time they got down our end they looked likely to score. Hopefully they'll run out of gas by the playoffs, as I'm concerned about facing them again

You can talk about the salary cap, grass roots, lack of money in the game, or the structure, but the single biggest problem in our game, which coincidentally would be the easiest and cheapest to fix it the play the ball.
It's an absolute shambles, and has been since the 'wrestle' became the primary defensive tactic. It's now got to the point where it's a lottery, defenders take an age to get away from the ruck, and the ball carriers wriggling about, moving off the mark, and trying to milk penalties, it's ruining the spectacle and needs sorting.

As for the performance, I thought we were poor, especially defensively we looked flat and the trys we conceded were soft, play like that again next week and we'll get another dry humping.

Individually nobody was more than an 8 out of 10, no player was really poor. although watching Ablett this season has been painful. I know JJB, and Delaney are the players most on here want to see the back of, but generally they're still performing at a decent level, Ablett hasn't had a decent game in months and looks totally shot.

Have you ever thought about being a stand up comedian. You certainly make me laugh.

Moon sounds doubtful for next week. Burrow might cop a ban.

So
A - Lilley in the halves
B - Sutcliffe to the halves, Keinhorst centre, Lilley bench
