Enjoyed the game today. When Hull played, they played really well. Horne showed his class, and a good run out for Turner - tidied up the play quite a bit when it got ragged. Hull were always in control, and were never in danger of losing. To be fair, most of Widnes's tries came courtesy of the ref and double penalties, which gave them good field position.
All in all a decent performance, and we're through to the next round.

Their try in the 1st half was short and appeared to bounce. To be fair though, if our attitude had been better we wouldnt be discussing the ref, should be looking at some of our players first.

It was the old Hull today wasn't it - take out the new signings of Obst and Gleeson, then minus the leadership of Fitz and we looked similar to the last time we played there 3 years ago.

So what you're saying is that if you take away all our leaders and organisers we look exactly like we did the last time we had no leaders or organisers?

No too much of a shock, surely?

Mr Hicks was really bad and missed many forward passes. I was sitting in the South Stand and could see how forward they were quite clearly while Hick was not up with play. I am not being biased, either.

Mr Hicks and Mr Childs should be relegated to reserve Rugby, as they are both not up to the standard of some other referees.

Having said that, It was a very good game to watch and we saw some good Rugby. I look forward to meeting you again next year.

Havnt read all 10 pages but just wondered what people thoughts are on Tickle playing loose man? To me it seemed the perfect game to play Westerman at 13 and see how he goes. Thought Tickle looked abit lost around the middle compared to Fitz, and Westerman, or even Washbrook would have probably done a better job.

Also letting Sculthorpe get away with a obvious trip was shocking aswell
