But it still wouldnt of put things in our own hands

Deep sigh reading OP.
Very proud of the team. Great effort.

If it had gone over, I'd have been quite optimistic going into next weekend, rather than berating them for not carrying on and possibility coming away with nothing.

Screw the ney sayers - well proud of the lads, it's not over yet

But we came away with nothing.....will say luck been against us last week finn hit post twice but missed tonight snyed hit post n it went over

He played the odds and went for the safer bet and came up short. I've no criticism of that. If he'd played for a try and we hadn't scored, people would have queried the decision not to go for the one point because it would have put us in with a greater chance of making the top four. He can't win either way.

Half time told in both games. We came back out with stick it up your jumpers, play safe. Sts & Hull both regrouped came back faster cut out their errors, exploited ours.

Just come on to this site & amazed we havent had somebody on saying that Finny should be burned at the stake, after last weeks comments from the keyboard warriors. We competed brilliantly for the full 80 minutes tonight and even though we came out on top in the penalty count 5 to 4 . I did think that the 50/50 calls favoured Hull, and when Shaul got 10 mins I did think that Watts could have been shown yellow for deliberate contact with one of our players ( Arona ?)

Phenomenal effort from the boys tonight from 1 to 17 (especially Grix, who was outstanding).
Talk about a game of fine margins.
They hit the post and it goes over, how crucial was thet !

To get back to within a point with all that had gone against us (every 50/50 call went to FC) was magnificent.

Proud of the team and hoping for some mathematical miracles.

Great effort and we'll be back for more next weekend.

absolutely gutted two weeks on the bounce. Better team in both games yet come away with nothing each time. There's nothing quite like a game of rugby league just a shame we were on the wrong end of the result. Massive achievement and still not over although out of our hands. Still got a feeling deep down it will go down to the last game and we will beat them at home. Going to bed gutted but still not over.

Not the wrong brand of rugby, just a team with no real experience of knock-out rugby trying to learn how to play knock-out rugby. This season is (and probably always has been) a season to early for a proper push into the finals. However, this experience of being involved in tight low scoring games will help the team develop for next year, they will get there, just not yet it seems

You've got to hand it to the guys, they don't leave anything out there and you have to be proud of their efforts. What they lack is a little knowhow and the ability on how to win these big games at this stage, we keep coming up just short. We just need that little extra composure at crucial times and who knows what could happen moving forward.
