The injuries are the only downside from this game, but they can arise anytime.
I guess we have Hadley to cover Houghton, Carlos to replace Connor, and Masi will come in for Watts.
Would also mention Griffin today - played through injury most of last season but has had a promising pre season and first couple of games. Strode through the Wigan defence a couple of times today, hopefully more to come.

Shaul needs to rethink his positioning when facing Marshall. 3 times he has shown him the touchline in 2 games and he has done him each time. Far too shallow and leaving too much space on the outside. Stand deeper and slowly close the space to the touchline and he either tries to go through you or slows to come back inside

I was there with 3 neutrals
They thought we were pedestrian and Wigan too much pace
I feel so bad for FC fans full of hope to have to watch that having spent 5 grand
Errors again
Year after year

Scrambling defence I agree, but thought our first contact defence was poor, too many times we dropped off and too many offloads.

Injuries certainly didn't help fir sure, losing two players in key positions and with no direct replacements so early certainly had an effect, but I thought we were poor, although I have to say that i thought Wigan were excellent, got their tactics spot on and based on their start to the season, they won't be far off winning something this year.

For Hull I though Manu and Griffin had good games, the rest not so much.

Let's hope the injuries arent too bad.

Not too disappointted or worried at the moment, but its key how we react over the next month.

Wont have done much to improve the image of superleague,a wigan display marred by lots of errors and still cantered in,a brave defensive display by hull kept the score down to double figures.Its a good job you have such a fantastic backroom staff who will no doubt clear the injury situation up within the week and such a strong squad that if the injuries are more serious it will make no difference.

In which case your mate is an idiot.

Well 'clueless' but you would expect Seb to have mates like that, wouldn't you?

Good point I saw on Twitter:

2pts lost. But invaluable networking & contacts made in Oz for Hull FC. Generating interest in the club from none supporters of the game & seasoned rugby league fans of NRL. Don’t be distracted by the negative green eyed comments by those of other clubs. Priceless for Both clubs.

From what I’ve seen the primary detractors are those with the most to lose from the top tier expanding its global reach.

There's no downside. Two of the biggest SL clubs raise their profile, get warm weather training and make £. The sport gets incremental media coverage. NSW tourism benefits. Fans get experience of a lifetime. Bitter Luddites get to bleat from the sidelines. Everyone wins.

Yeh totally agree , was embarrassing, thought he should of done better with both tries

The game was secondary in my opinion to all the off field work undertaken by both clubs in the week leading up to it.
That's where the rewards will come in future years.
Well done to Wigan for having the courage to take a punt. Glad AP has a good relationship with IL at Wigan which probably facilitated us being asked along. That and us being a big club now
