Quote: UllFC "while friendlies are there to get fit and try out ideas, there really should be an element of pride playing for HullFC no matter what the occasion, particularly when the players have had much criticism from the fans for not turning up in 'lesser' games over the last few years.
its clear that the club still hasn't got rid of the culture where the players think they are international class players who don't need to bother when playing a 'lesser' side. Last season the team was able to beat Wire away and in the CC Semi, but then go lose to Wakefield at home, draw at Salford etc. Top sides don't have 'off games''"
Wigan got beat at home to Cas last year.
