Same here. Finding myself hoping Hull shut the Sky team up (against my better judgment).
Stevo blaminging Wigans poor defence for Logans try. Its constamt bias.

Im on mute for the second half

Quote: Mild Rover "And, to be like a dog with a bone about it, Wigan had several youngsters in their team - I suspect their average age was only slightly higher. I worked it out very roughly, and there wasn't much in it.
It's still Wigan at the DW like, so impressive, nonetheless.'"

I guess we could have gone with a much more experienced team and got bummed 60 nil like rovers did

Quote: Mild Rover "Superb effort from a team with 7 or so players 21 or under.

As a point of arithmetic pedantry though, I'm not sure that average age will have been 21. Either median or mean. Feka and Minichello are both 30+, and Paea can't be far off. Credit to them for supporting the youngsters, and pushing Wigan all the way.'"



seems the Club Site got it wrong too, still what do they know? icon_lol.gif

Lee Radford commended his young Hull FC side after a brave performance last night against Wigan Warriors.

The Black and Whites took on title-challengers Wigan with six academy players and an average squad age of just 21 but almost snatched an unexpected victory.

Two late tries kept Hull in it until the death but they were eventually beaten 30-24.

I suspect somebody off-handedly said the average age of the team was 21 and nobody thought, hang on... and bothered to check. There's also that thing that local youngsters stay younger in people's heads for longer, so people might assume Shaul and Hadley are younger than 23.
Anyhow, it was a very lovely lily of a defeat and I just hate to see you guys trying to gild it with big globs of molten lead.

You are right that Wigan's average age was only slightly higher but the difference is that most of Wigan's 'youngsters' are recognised first team players except for Gildart who was playing only his third game. I thought Hull played really well and weren't far from pulling off a win which would have been deserved. What really annoyed me was the patronising commentary from the Sky muppets. They were talking all the way through as though it was inevitable that Wigan were going to rack up a big score and that it was only a matter of time before Hull ran out of petrol. How wrong could they be!

To be fair to Stevo et al, they were singing our praises by the end of the match. Even Phil Clarke was calling for a knock on by Wigan earlier on which left me scratching my head. The first thing Jon Wells said on 80min was something like "hull fc...wow" or words to that effect
