Hull did ok against us yesterday but that whinging rip Agar takes the biscuit. If the refs not going to defend our players blah, blah, blah. Tackling technique killing the game, blah, blah, blah. He should concentrate on getting the best out of his squad, a very good squad imo and stop with the excuses. Fact is 4 games in, 3 losses notched up.

He now my favourite to be the first coach sacked this season.

We can all wish he is the first coach to get sacked. As a Hull FC fan our rugby has been very poor since he has been in charge. Although we looked better yesterday then we have done, I'd rather see the back of him and so would a lot of FC fans. His win ratio is less than 50% which is poor for a club that boasts decent attendances, a grade A licence, a great stadium and a squad that on paper should be challenging for the top 4.

OLD FAITHFUL!

So we're only 5 weeks into the season and already 2 coaches have voiced concern over tackling "technique".
At least when Saints were champions they did it fairly, with class and dignity.

Are you being serious? Or are you just another bitter Hull fan on a wind-up mission?

And for a bonus point - how many victories did those coaches get between them?

Class & Dignity are two words that have never been used in the same sentence to describe St Helens not with a straight face.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg

I dare you to watch all of our tries from last season and claim we did not win with class! We were awesome at your place and played some quality rugby....

Hull didn't exactly come to our place with class and dignity did they? They got shown up.

YES! My new favourite "Bitter post of the season" so far!

Your tactics yesterday where a prime example of a team who cannot match the top 4 sides in this competition. You came with a game plan to slow Wigan down, lie all over the play the ball and a desire to send Wigan players back to the dressing room early.

Manu's actions towards Sam Tomkins where nothing short of cowardly, one thing RL players dont need to do is try and prove how tough they are. Did Manu have a Mrs watching in the stands? "Look at me Love, im rock hard".

Hull couldnt finish Wigan off, even with us having 12 men for the last 15 minutes.

Wigan proved why they are the current champions, Hull proved they will just be making up the numbers yet again.

To be fair I don't expect anyone to agree on here, but your tackling techniques are a disgrace. Its well known within the game, don't be surprised when teams do the same back.
Agar was completely right to raise the issue. As was Potter, the difference being Potter did it before the game and made himself look like he was begging for help.

As opposed to looking like a very bad loser?

Either way, they both sounded like whiney little schoolgirls.

Please would you explain why our tackling techniques are a disgrace?

And arent you contradicting yourself anyway when you say 'dont be surprised when teams do the same back' so is your team a disgrace for doing the same?

I'd just like to see this imaginary rule book which states Wigan's "tackling technique" is illegal I mean it must be because we are the Champions and are currently undefeated this season.

I could go into detail about the excessive force put on players shoulders, knees and ankles but, tbh, you know as well as I do that your players do it so there's little point. You're not in the same league as Leeds and Saints were.

no explain, comments like that just make u seem foolish and that you have no evidence to back yourself up.
