Quote jakeyg95="jakeyg95"Yeah at 72-0 with 15 minutes left I was thinking wow, there's no way we get less than 90. But then we took our foot off the gas a bit and I think Hull stepped up a bit too since, as bad as a 60 point defeat is, it will be forgotten in a few weeks whereas they were heading for a SL record defeat at one point.'"
Not so much foot off the gas as completely knackered imho. It was really hot and despite the adrenaline we just ran out of steam.
Truth is it was a freak result in terms of scoreline, these results always are. That said putting 72 points past a team that sits above you in the league is one hell of a feat no matter what the mitigating circumstance. Likewise some of Wakefields Rugby was sublime and would have beaten most teams any day of the week though not quite by such a margin.
