Dont know how he can blame the rovers tactics, we were average at best for the 80 mins, rovers were stubborn and battled away, we only have ourselves to blame but we got a point, we didnt lose, move on to the next game. As we keep being reminded by fans of other clubs, coming top dont matter, its the last 4 games of the season that matters, lets finish 8th and be crowned champions?

Rovers came to spoil and niggle and got their rewards, a point.

awful scrappy game due to the above and bentham didnt help at all, he is on par if not worse than childs.

eden set up the last two tries, came back to haunt us a little!

still we didnt lose and now we can go straight into another game instead of having a week off again.

You tought us how to do it. Thanks!

we went out there today and played at 50% and got what we deserved, yes the ref was shocking and yes the weather was horrible but with the class we had on the pitch and with a healty leed at half time this one should have been in the bag, we carnt expect the sun to be shineing 16000 crowd and sky every game for us to turn it on like we all no WE CAN DO worst thing is even the kr fans expected a hammering today, and am not a fan of this atitude that its ok aslong as wer in the play offs rubbish WHEN we win the gf we should do it in stile all year.

I was expecting a beating after last week and to have gone in at half time 18 down my mind hadn't changed, but hopefully we can kick on now and be competitive. it'll take a while for all our new players to settle but at least today shows we have spirit.

as for Huddersfield, I tipped you lot to finish top and still think you'll be there or there abouts. today was probably just a stumbling block you'll quickly get over.

I agree, Anderson should get the rfl to pass a law saying teams should roll over and have their bellies tickled, or he should adapt his tactics during games and tell his team its not a god given right to win.
Hudds spent years as the masters of the niggle and sometimes it comes back.

I am not too despondent, I thought it was going to be close just never that close!
Too big physical sides which I thought we just and only just won. Thing that griped me was how the game was slowed down and the ref seemed to not call it down the middle!
Disappointed but not so much! And joe wardle take a bow! When you have centres like him running in to hit the big men in the middle of the park it has to make you smile

nice of the rovers fans to finally join in with this thread!

they celebrated like they had won the grand final and fair play to them, they shouldn't have been anywhere near to getting a point, but we were terrible,absolutely dreadful in attack and defensively sound until the last minute!

as for bentham and his cohorts, they were absolutely apalling, every minor indiscretion by us was pulled up,yet rovers were never once made to get onside,they were more guilty of lying on and messing around than we were and yet were allowed free reign to do it time and time again, wardle was sinbinned but yet both sides were penalised for exactly the same thing and no more yellow cards, whilst not blaming them for us losing the 2 points that was our own doing for giving up the ghost at half time, but the officials were only interested in pinging one team today and the game was refereed differently for the 2 sides.

again,credit to rovers for their fightback and never giving it up,but deary me they should never have had a sniff, that 2nd half was the worse 40 minutes of rugby league i've seen for a while thanks to the giants p*** poor effort and the officials.

agree, although as i said it was our own lack of effort that ultimately proved our downfall, but the officials were abysmal,and rovers could probably have shot a player today and got away with it.

What have we done to Bentham?

I think Rovers actually won the penalty count today which is absolutely bizarre. It's legal to knee a guy in the head when he's trying to get up now, apparently, so long as the guy you knee has a C&G shirt on. And then he penalised US for laying on! It was a complete farce. The brawl was his fault; I firmly believe that.

I think you're a little over the top squire, but then, despite the fact I've lived in Huddersfield for longer than I lived not in Hull, ( East coast, terrible, was lucky to escape over here) you've got a slight point.

I can't really comment on Bentham, from behind the sticks it's difficult to see.

However, I do think you were your own worst enemies today, you had us by the throat and didn't go for the kill. You looked to play your sets out and make us come ninety metres.

You didn't finish your breaks, I'd be very surprised if you hadn't made a considerable many more metres than us.

Basically , I think you put your cue in the rack and we were fortunate to sucker punch you at the end.
