Oh aye, he's plenty of time to work on defence. That can be taught but pace and flair are inherent.

No mewling here, the original post wasn't even aimed at me, I was just pointing out a fact, that there are posters who refuse to accept negative comments about the club and jump on others backs. Its a reality.

All adds to the banter of course.

What's he said? I'm still at work so luckily haven't had to listen to him.

Terrific effort from you tonight and believe it or not I would have loved to see you stuff the arrogant tw*ts.Well played all the same.

A brave and committed performance from all the team.
Agree with JTP though, it shows up again how stupid the Academy merger decision is.

And even though I am a massive critic of Radford I agree.

I also think a big factor is the young players are desperate to impress and get a career in the game, whereas some of the senior members of the squad have been too comfortable for too long Sa & Yeaman being just two examples of players who's best days are long-gone and have put in mediocre displays. Would much rather see an exciting centre with pace like Logan than the likes of those two.

due to work commitments, tonight was only the second game this season i missed, gutted not to be there but ruddy proud of the youngsters, the senior players who stood up to be counted tonight and the coaching staff, lee radford especially


big raps to the fans who went too as it is a horrible trip on a friday night

We all would. It's his shirt to lose now, he's earnt the right to keep it

INOUT

Luckily I had it on mute most of the game but managed to catch the "wigans defence was poor and they really should have put 40-50 on us",credit where it's due eh!

This was one of the games I enjoyed watching most all season. The energy and commitment was fantastic. Thoroughly entertaining even if we (nearly) didn't win

Leeds fan here. I was really rooting for your side tonight....and getting genuinely excited at the end. Bluddy marvelous effort from Houghton, Minechello (sp) and Liam Watts supported by a whole host of promising young 'uns.

You should take heed from the route to success from the Leeds club of the last decade and not try to emulate the Leeds misguided attempted route to success of the 80's and 90's.

(I hope you [idon't[/i of course)

Much as I don't want to defend Sky pundits that Stevo comment related to the Bookies giving Wigan a 40+ point start. All the plaudits from Stevo, Eddie, Clarke, Carney & Wells were all for FC tonight and deservedly so. Closing comment was "well done Hull FC a moral victory tonight"

That was a real gutsy performance and regardless of the fact we couldn't quite manage the win despite losing Lineham early, Shaul with a hamstring & I think Abdul a couple of minutes from the end after a nasty tackle (legitimate) to the ribs from Flower, I am very proud in defeat tonight.

What kind of team we can put out against Hudds I don't know but hopefully the kids will grab the opportunity. I am against the joint academy and this just adds fuel to the fire after that performance, HKR must be rubbing their hands....
