He certainly looked like he was about to give a card but then got a word in his ear. The contact was ok, so I would have been ok with it not being a red, but to show no card when the ball was so far away is a ridiculous decision.

It was just a horrible, spiteful game. Once Fev knew they couldnt handle us legally the niggle started, then the niggle turned into thuggery, and then we started to react and both teams just dragged each other down and down until the last 10 minutes was farcical. Had there been another 5 minutes left to play it could easily have ended up abandoned.

It was probably kind of entertaining for the neutral, but hope I never see Hull involved in another game like that again tbh.

Correct. Absolutely disastrous night. At least we didn't go out as holders in the first round like we did at Odsal in 2006.

I see Hock stayed away from Manu all night but kept going for the little guys, he's a clown

Before the game I was thinking we were getting close to the 'throw all our eggs in one basket' with regard to CC retention.
I know it's the Grand Final we all crave, but hey, circumstances, and all that.
A triplet of black and white ribboned silverware lifting in the Wembley sun wouldn't have been bad compensation.

Think that's even shafted with the quarters only three weeks away.

If we can draw Leigh/Salford, Hudds/Wakey, Catalans/Whitehaven at home we can give it a good go.

Fingers, legs, and everything else crossed.

Any of those home or away would be absolutely fine. I know our away form is bad but beggars cant be choosers.

Even if magic turns out to be worst case scenario for injuries, you would like to think by the next round we will have Taylor, Paea, Griffin, Logan and Kelly back at least.

We just need to focus on trying to get a team out and finding a way of getting a result next week now.

And Cas beat Saints tomorrow.
I'll settle for us doing Wigan at Wembley, again.
B0ll0x, they might as well give us the cup now.

The off the ball hit on Shaul was beyond shocking
Weak referee and booth video ref
It was minimum yellow and why not a red ?
Outcome could have been anything from a Coma to broken neck
It stank to high heaven

I’ve urged Lee Radfud and anyone who’ll listen to play Jake Connor all game for a long time
Those long left to right balls are amazing
Cam smith can’t throw half that distance
I’ve said I had doubts about Kelly and Connor was my total shoe in at 6 for him
He is the future

He needs to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and play the team's game, rather than his game, on a consistent basis if he's going to be a top rate half back.

With Kelly now staying, until 2020 at least we'll be looking at a Kelly/Sneyd 6/7, so Connor has at least two more seasons plying his trade in the centres and allowing the club to decide whether to look at moving him to 6 long term, or developing him into a top class centre. Personally, I'd rather have a centre with extra strings to his bow, like we do with Connor and Tuimavave, than throw all of our eggs into one basket with the halves and be one dimensional.

Only two teams have won it three years on the bounce Wigan(when they won and Saints so would love to see the club do that, GF is our priority but I want both lol
