Hull reverting to type

Widnes have played all of the bottom 4 teams and an average Hull team, plus lost to Salford. Wouldn't be going too overboard yet. The table tends to balance out after Easter.

Radford just sat there for so long motionless looking like he's feeling sorry for himself. Whilst the result by HT was realistically gone he didn't seem to be bothered about trying to stem the flow and just looked to be accepting what was happening.

Widnes were impressive as they were when they beat us, can they keep it up?
possibly not, but they are very entertaining to watch at the moment and just goes to show what can happen if you build something rather than panic and sack coaches when things don't go well.

Widnes are on 10 points. They only got 19 points last season!

True, their next 6 fixtures are

Wigan (a)
Wire (a)
Saints (h)
Catalans (a)
Cas (h)
Wire (h)

Will be interesting to see where they sit after that period.

Along with cas they have good coaches who have studied the game and not been rushed into head coaching positions (or have been and then taken a step back before returning to superleague)

Proper condescending interview from Bill Arthur to Radford

Tell you what, Radfords.comments there's about individuals not being up for it, doesn't that get said EVERY YEAR at hull, with each and every coach?

Blaming individuals?

They definitely faced Leeds and Huddersfield at the right time but they absolutely smashed both of those sides. To be fair, they have been quite a good attacking side ever since they signed Kev Brown. Even before then it wasn't really scoring points that was the problem, they just couldn't defend for their lives. This year they've been rock solid. They are full of confidence at the minute. I fancy they will finish top 6.

Well done Dennis Betts.

Good luck to them, nice to see a 'lower' team doing well.

Good to see a smaller club doing well for a change, they can win 4 of their next 6 (2 losses to us ofc ) for what I care, keep the Cheshire teams at the top!

Although they've yet to be truly tested, they are playing good rugby at the minute. Could they keep it up if they lose either Brown or Mellor to injury though? If they are to slip down the table, that'll be why.

Hull were awful and didn't have much luck in the first 15 minutes, but really impressed with Widnes and especially there halfs, great player is Brown, would love him in the Hull side.

I thought Hull were very good first half hour or so and were desperately unlucky to be behind never mind by 20 points at HT. Everytime Widnes got near they pulled off a great play that stuck, which is credit to them mind. I have to admit to turning over once Brown scored straight after HT as it looked like Hull heads had gone by then, but i wouldn't be too discouraged in the long run despite the result, you definitely need to get a new coaching team in, iv'e said for a while the reason yourselves and Catalans will be held back is the coaches are not up to it.
