Out of maybe 20 sets about 3, and thats pushing it.

a high completion rate is a must in any game of RL, i would suggest even more so today. hull had a really tough fixture on Friday, we had little more than a training exercise. We should, and even could have, just ground out an unspectacular win.
A really disappointing day

We lost the game , as opposed to them winning it.
Not being disrespectful to Hull. They completed most of their sets and didn't give possession away as easy and as often as we did.

Its almost as if we "won" it.

So it has nothing to do with Hull F.C being the better team?

Can only beat the team in front of ya.

We defended better, and kept you in your half. When you did attack us and bombard us for about 15-20 mins in the second half, you could not break our line from our defending.

You are by far the best attacking team in the league, and have the best attacking players, along with a pack. You was out muscled and beaten in all areas today.

Don't worry, you'll be there come the end of the season.

I said to my old man start of this season, wire will be the team to beat this year. Get use to a lot of teams wanting to give you an harding.

Yeah, what he said. Hull were the better team and deserved to win. We weren't at the races.

We dropped too many passes this afternoon & pushed the play too much in the 2nd half

Hull battered us, from the 20th minute onwards
Well played Hull
Oue completion rate was, at best appalling. Did we actually have a set of 6 in the second half?

basics, basics,basics, basics....get them right and the rest will follow.

Whwn our speccies are saying we lost it, they are commenting on the way we played , which was terrible. Hull were by far the better team today, and on that performance will be pushing for a top 4 spot. They did the basics far better than we did.

Not sure about that, they scored three tries from our mistakes. I doubt if they will be gifted such chances in many games.

Back to basics .......

What they teach you at school boy level ...


Props should be running on to a pass - not stood still, check wind speed then decide to move (oops too late - Boomed)

Passes should be to the middle of the body.

How many passes do we see that are either slightly behind or above the head of the reciever?

As Wires and FC have said above, for the second half we simply seemed to be rushing everything. Speaking to the bloke at the side of me just before the forward pass in the second half (think it was benny) that they needed to keep hold of it and they'll either drop it or pass it forward. This after TS had said that part of the reason for the beating of Salford was that the players had learnt to take their time and wait for things to happen.

just a bad day at the office, in other matches weve tried stuff like that and its come off, lets move on and forget it , onwards and upwards .
