I ended up flicking in between the France, Euro 2016 game and this, i probably enjoyed the football more!
What a dreadful game between the supposedly best 2 teams in our flagship competition.
I'm sure Hull won't be bothered, but if there were any neutrals "enjoying" RL for the first time i doubt they'll be back, woeful stuff from both sides.

Nice change for the sky muppets to actually acknowledge how poor a game it was though

Ridiculous thing to say, only RL fans would think that, how about when two top soccer teams play out a dull match, does the same apply? Test cricket is boring as anything and yet people still go, how about plenty of other sports where the skill level or entertainment wasn't great. There have been plenty of great games this year as there have every year.
Two teams not wanting to lose, both under pressure and conditions not the best, it was on the cards to be a torrid affair and not for the first time in a big 1v2 match.

That's because we were playing. Eddie hates Warrington.

Agreed. Would rather watch a poor game of RL than a good game of football.

Talking of which....anyone else ready for 0-0 tomorrow?

As a hull fan couldn't care what our peformance was like tonight. All I wanted was 2 points in any fashion. Look at the other results tonight, the weather conditions played a big part in all 3 games I would pressure. Wet ball/pitch and humidity in the air was never going to allow a classic game

I agree the quality wasn't what it could have been but at no point did I even consider switching over to the football. I did enjoy the conspiracy theory about the ball though.

If the conditions were anything like they were at Leeds then I'm not surprised there were plenty of knock ons.
Hot/humid weather combined with a wet and greasy surface. Horrendous to play RL in those conditions.

I still like football, although I care about the rugby more these days. And in what was apparently a pretty poor sporting evening all round, I've at least seen in the highlights a couple of moments of quality from Sam Tomkins for Wigan and Payet for France. The pleasures, if any, of Wire v Hull will have to wait for the Superleague Show.

At least we will see a more entertaining game tomorrow from the Catalans Dragons playing against Theodore Fages and his team mates.

I thought it was a good hard game where defences were on top and what I would expect of 2 top four sides

Most of the handling errors were caused by the tackling technique of both teams.

It may not be as entertaining for the neutral as the previous nights game between Widnes and Cas, the teams lower down the table have poorer defences therefore the games are high scoring.

I though they were quite a few knock ons for both teams that could have been penalties, but to be fair Child's was consistent in his approach and that's all you can ask for.
