I'm just glad Williams was fit enough to play. If Stef had been filling in again, we might well have lost that. Our attack was brighter today than against Salford, but we shot ourselves in the foot with so many errors. Just relieved to win, really.

This team is going backwards at an alarming rate.Awful yet again.

2 points - fortunately.
Entertaining to watch for the neutrals I guess but so many errors.
A lot of our issues were self inflicted.
A half decent attacking team would have mullered us.

Hull have some decent youngsters - Moy, Martin and Barmforth.

Max Wood had a good game.
Dufty - Mr. Marmite.

No point in beating ourselves up. We got the 2 points, build on it.

Let's move on.

Okay, here’s a positive from today. Thewlis was excellent. Not a lot else to cheer about but thought he had a great game

I’m not sure how Dufty can be both the best and worst player on the pitch, but he did it.

Awful game, truly awful. I think I counted 5 or 6 errors from Dufty, and he can moan and kick stones all he wants about that decision about being forced in goal, but if he just traps the ball and picks it up without messing around it takes the decision away from the ref.

Frustrating day, but 2 points. There’s a few who will look to take a shot at Vaughan, but Harrison made 27 meters and Bullock 13. I’m not sure pointing at Vaughan is going to achieve anything, he isn’t the issue. Musgrove was our best, in my opinion. There’s just a huge disparity with work rate, Powell didn’t carry the ball at all, Holroyd and Harrison making less than 30m from starting positions. It’s just not good enough. That said, can’t make many meters when you turn it over so often.

47% completion rate does not help those stats either.

Not a great performance. Considering how little ball we had, and how poor our completion was when we did, it was remarkable that we won and how few times they actually broke our line. Harrison was incredibly anonymous.

Positives were that we were pretty resilient in defence and the three tries they scored came either from intercepts or on the back of a shocking decision by Thaler.

A positive, there was a chance for Hull in the second half when Tai and Thewlis got it all wrong and the winger bombed it. The next attack down that side saw Thewlis come up with a belting tackle, superb read and executed it perfectly. I was particularly critical of Thewlis on this earlier in the year, and over the past two seasons, but even after a mistake he had the confidence to try again and pull it off.

And again, Musgrove. Different player today. Good meters, ran hard and that tackle on half time was absolutely necessary! Yes he got pushed back, but was in control of the ball.

Toby King and Ben Currie too worked hard. I thought Currie was going to win it for us when he made the break on the left, shame Dufty couldn’t hold it.

One to forget. 2 points secured. Didn't go so can't complain.

Observation - we need more than a hardworking journeyman added to our pack for 2025.

It annoys me how we don’t take early opportunities to go 2 scores ahead early on a kick a dg.
Why go for it under a pressure situation?
We got lucky.

Been wembley ok we lost and in the top 4 half way thru the season I'd take that

Yes true. Expectations were low and we are better than we thought.
