Just got back, the only thing im dissapointed about is the amount of fans we took, must have been 300 tops. Thought we played well considering we had 6 potential 1st team players out including our captain. We had 3 tries disallowed but the referee was garbage for both teams. Just hoping we get some players back soon and take some confidence into next week!

Edit: Thought grix was our best player tonight

Your team and recent performances deserve more away support IMO - would agree about the ref, but year on year players and coaches move on up and improve and year on year we have to put up with garbage controlling/ruining things in the middle.

I stupidly thought full time refereeing would make a difference but sadly I think things have got worse. Its not the major decisions its the basics they seem to get wrong. I knew things were bad tonight when people near me wished Ganson was refereeing!!

I breathed a huge sigh of relief when Hodgson wasnt playing you guys certainly missed him. Agree about the ref tho he was awful for both teams. The Hodgson breakaway 'try' he disallowed was harsh imo as i didnt see anything wrong with it. Hopefully you lot will go a lot better next week

thought you were very "awkward" to play against, showed good defence and we had to scramble to shut down your attack. on another day you wouldve beaten us (definitely last year) but we are a different proposition this year and will take some beating especially when we start to put it together but it will be good to be up there with the likes of huddersfield competing again.

decent game but spoilt but an absolute shocking referee for both sides.

good luck next week, rattling up 40 points wouldnt surprise me.

According to reports knocked out in are of tackle and as per rules should have been play on, try would have stood had their being a video ref, maybe you saw something alot of others didn't? Harsh call from what I can make out.

Still not too downhearted with 6 first teamers missing put up a very good show.

The pass was slapped down by, I think, Gilmour. A definite knock-on.

agree about the ref ,its about time he went back to france and stayed there , thought both teams played well considering the muppet they had in charge ,good luck giants for next week hope you TONK EM

Problem we all have is that it's not just 1 ref thats crap, it's the sodding lot of em.

If I was crap at my job then I would be sacked simple as, these clowns seem to get decisions wrong everytime they make one, glad they took up reffing and not brain surgery!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The linesman who gave it used to play for hull kr so it must have been as clear a knock on as you will ever see

(Actually I was in line with it and it was definitely a knock on)

Difficulty is that the ref makes 100's of decisions in a game and invariably some are incorrect. Also, they don't always have clear line of sight.

Mistakes I can live with, it's inconsistencies which really p1$$ me off

We complain that the refs shy away from making tough decisions but Mr Allibert had no second thoughts last night as he disallowed 3 of our 4 tries. Well done sir.

Clever ploy to position the big screen behind the away fans, then turn the screen off after a contentious decision is made. Each time I turned to look at it, it was blank, then it came back on as a scrum was forming, drop out being taken etc. Something our screen operator should adopt perhaps.

The game was well played by both teams and I didn't notice any niggling or nastiness between the players and played in good spirit. On the day, probably the best team won, but I'm not on a downer. We may have lost the battle but we are still in the war, so to speak. If we can play like we did with so many 1st teamers out and no captain then we could be in for a good season. Hull are vastly improved on last season and hopefully, like us will be challenging for honours this year.

Great crowd, sadly not by us, great stadium, great game, and just what superleague is all about. Roll on next week.

the big screen should not have any involvement for the referee, its there for the fans not the officials

as for your disallowed tries, all correct decisions, as prooved on tonights game when they showed hodgsons' no try

Which is why I tried to look at it.



And the other two?

well it is our ground so it should benifit the hull fans

as for the other two tries i guess sky thought the same as halibut as they were the correct decisions

history now anyway
