Hull just shaded i and deserved their win.
Not a classic but, with the scores so tight and the result in doubt till the final hooter an enjoyable game.
We just need a Trinity win now (for an all Yorkshire final)

Tough game tonight , I thought Wigan were quicker at the ptb and there line speed was great in the first half , They really compounded our attack but we've found away to win these close games this season .

After Hull got two scores ahead I thought they were going to blow it!

They just seemed to go to bits, the ball retention became comical.

Really pleased for the Hull fans though.

As soon as Fonua went down I thought that was the worst thing that could happen to Hull. Not just that they obviously lose a threequarter but the 5 minute break was the last thing they needed when on top. Never really got in the same stride again afterwards but held on for the win.

But Wigan were essentially a one man team in attack with Williams, apart from him no one looked a threat and if you swapped him and Tuimavave around to play for the opposite team then Hull would've won by 3/4 clear scores.

We are still a fair bit off the "top 4" regarding handling skills imo ,It's been a part of our game for to long now that still needs hell of a lot of improvement .

Grr.

You are a bad man.

Unfortunate big congratulations to Hull this evening.

May they lose fifty one nil in the final.

Or Wakefield... They've played well enough this season to be taken seriously don't you think? Their coach who got unfancied KR to the final last year will have his players ready.

On the Game. It was enjoyable. Wigan and Hull both took some batterings.
A mixture of gutsy Hull defence and a slightly disjointed Wigan attack won Hull that game imo.
What's happened to the Sam Tomkins factor in attack?
Is he just behind the rest of the team coming in late or his he missing the likes of Farrell putting him into gaps?

I think 51-1 would be fair, surely any fan of Rovers of FC wouldn't want a hat trick of no shows would they?

Have I missed something, have Wakefield and Warrington already played?. I thought it was this afternoon.

I thought our disjointed attack kept wigan in the game TBH. We looked average with ball in hand but still should have scored 2 or 3 more tries

Bit of both. Up until the game he missed against Leeds he's been very off the boil. His confidence looks shot. Defensively he's been solid as a rock and in attack he really spruced the attack up. He's lost his pace which means the way he used to play is impossible. He's still got the rugby brain so get him in the halves and get a decent FB. It's times like this that other teams must appreciate the value of Farrell though? This workrate and his passing game has assisted so many tries over the years.

For me Sam has to get his hands on the ball as often as possible to make the opportunities. He's no longer the player to exploit the gaps, he needs to be the player who makes the gaps and being in the halves is a natural position for me. I'd like to see a halves combination of Tomkins and Leuluai next year.

Yep, they play today. Pretty much a bye for Warrington, though.
