Did you ever think that wakey were probably fired up for this game, had the motivation to take it to us for 60mins and then drop off, I think the worst coach to grace superleague was agar and look what happened to him.......

So why did we wait till last 10 mins, did Hull tire ?

Not really, you got some better field position from a couple of penalties and some better kicks and generated some pressure of that.

The weather was awful though, which meant both sides were (understandably) doing a lot of one-man drives, roll on summer!

Great effort today. Played into a hail Mary of a wind and snow first half and spent the majority of it in our half. One lapse for their first try, but that aside we held our line brilliantly. Had to defend our line time and again in the second half and did so well. Conceded after Mellars slipped. Played to the conditions for most of the game and both sides adopted one out rugby. It was catch 22. On one hand throw it about in that and the ball would have gone to ground. Play it simple and up against a much bigger pack it was going to be hard work. I didn't see Hull playing it any different to how we did. Conditions wouldn't allow it.

 10 to go, 14-0 down and after all that tackling you would have be forgiven for thinking that was it. To still have the reserves to dig in and really have a go at the end was great to see and I'm proud of the lads today. 

Ok, we didn't win today, I don't care if we did beat Hull FC last season, or that we did beat Hull KR at home last season. If last seasons team had played today, Hull may well have scored 40. We couldn't defend for toffee last year, and now we can. We haven't been fit for 4 years, and now we are. There is a lot to look forward to in this team when the pitches dry out. I for one can't wait.

LOL

Good thread this.

Maybe ten rounds in I’ll start to worry, as I’ve already stated, it’s a brand new team.

It’s going to take time to gel as a group of players.

Maybe you should worry more, with all that possession it was still two try’s each.

Thread cleaned up.

Let's leave the spelling and grammar rodeo and return to the game, please.

Oh, and leave the personal insults out of it.

Had to laugh at Cockaynes answer to all the booing when he walked back down the touchline laughing at the Hull fans after scoring, they went barmy.

Following this point to its natural conclusion, you must be worried that in seventy minutes you only scored two tries? we managed that in ten minutes.
Weak points are always the easiest to flip you see?
Congrats on beating the mighty Trin!!!

Wonder who was laughing after the game?

I imagine he's still laughing at the petty mindless muppets, don't you.

I take it he didn't get under your skin then

I've seen more in the three games against Widnes, KR & Bradford to know that we're a much improved side. I didn't go today so can't comment but i'm happy with the direction we're heading and whilst we're far from complete e.g. Goal Kicker, there's alot to be positive regarding WTW.

I don't expect anything this season except a gradual improvement as we try to blend together so many new faces. If we do that than i'll be happy!!

Wowsers get a life
