Nothing personal, but the mental image of you with a monk-on, sat beneath the leaking roof made me snort-laugh, and turned an ordinary post into something of literary merit.
Yeah the Griffin crusher was a whole load of nothing. Makes me cringe when fans are screaming and chanting for the ref to send him off. Griffin just turned in the tackle and and I don't think there wasn't really any unnecessary pressure applied. I do though have a problem with the inconsistencies that referees show in this situation, such as in the CC cup game when Richardson turned his back into Houghton and we ended up getting a yellow card from it.
Tickle hit into Taylor's back as you say was a legal challenge. Bad sportsmanship most definitely. The tackle was complete (held hadn't been called but it was pbvious nobody was going anywhere) and he was wrapped up by 3 men. Very unnecessary but nothing in the rules against it.

| Mrs B that thread has cheered me up, some of the posts from Rovers fans are pure gold.
Tracy claiming Jordan Cox was a a better player than Ellis or Barham Red claiming he would't challenge for trophies or get international honours at Hull, I'm not sure what is funnier.

| Firstly apologies for being over exuberant in my delight at a long awaited derby win. It's been a long time coming.
I do think that Hull FC have more problems than a bad injury situation I stick by that. You're not going to become a bottom 4 team any time soon no doubt but I think you have settled into a bit of a lull.
Your Super 8 games may seem unimportant but I think Lee Radford will not agree. For all the loyalty of Pearson I think Radford's job rests on the line.
I think there will be little to choose between the Hull clubs next year in fact we may just edge ahead of you. Of course we still have to stay in the league first!
I predicted a while ago you would finish 8th that was possibly wishful thinking but it's far from impossible now. Play like you did at St Helens in the cup and you'll soon have me and others retreating back to the Hull KR forum.

Not a bad post to be honest.
I'd be amazed if Rovers finished above us next year though, need some big recruitment to achieve and considering you are at Full cap with your current squad and are rumoured to have signed the likes of Hauraki, Keinhorst and another Salford player whose name I can't remember I don't see that happening.

You know what, I didn’t see the second one until I just watched it back now, and the VR didn’t look at it either. Good spot! I suspect that is what incensed Blair, as he has the clearest view of it. Can’t really grumble at the officials, having missed it myself. So Griffin got away with a shove and [itwo[/i knock-ons, in one play - uncanny.

The only time I have been to the KC stadium was back in June 2010 when I watched Hull come back from a second half score of 6-26 against St Helens to win 27-26. No kudos for guessing who scored the final try, landed a last minute field goal and was the match hero. Also in the side was Danny Houghton.
It was the first match I had seen Hull play at home for almost 45 years and will forever be remembered as one of my favourite Hull matches. Cannot remember another 20 point come back against St Helens.
