Did anyone else hear Stevo fart on the commentary or was it just me?

sneyd missing an easy drop goal and penalty kick sums our night up. Ome to file away and move on

Ugly win but 2 vital points. Taylor and Watts' 2nd half stints turned it for us was glad to see Wattsy get Sky MOM was well deserved. Defence and attack seems laboured at times in last few games. What a player Mahe is good move by Radders to move him to the centre and stick with him there.

The drop goal really annoyed me, on the 4th all we had to do was drive to the posts and give Sneyd a simple kick, instead we went wide and made it a bit rushed for him.

We said the same thing, it was dumb play. Think the whole evening is something to chalk up to experience and move on 2 [points

messy, panicky at times even with half an hour to go, brain farts, too many mistakes but we got a big glob of luck and we have a 'Fonua' could that just get him into the SL dream team?
We massively missed Minichello, hope he is fit for next week, was disappointing with Shaul bombing a try when he should have passed.
Anyway, we scraped the win but got a lot to work on, long period of time between now and Warry so hope bringing my nephew is going to be worth it and a helicopter visit!

Apart from Fonua still no flair. Talanoa is starting to go through one of his rest periods like he did last season, some are coasting and the rest are playing like 'that's it now we've won the Challenge Cup, whatever happens, happens. We've done the main thing what the fans wanted.'

Craig Hall was man of the match for me, great game from him

To be honest , I feel a bit like that, anything else now is just a bonus. I know I shouldn't feel like that, but after the amazing day out at Wembley this team gave us, Im happy no matter what happens now, Im not greedy, after the last 10 years of shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiite, this is brilliant

I thought barring the daft sin-binning, Talanoa did alright. Won us a few penalties coming out of our own half with strong and quick wrestling in the ruck. Wakefield's tactic seemed to be to slow Hull down, and it worked. Like Jake said though, we got the two points and we can move on.

I don't believe that any professional sportsman would be happy with failure. The team has a chance of doing the double, possibly even the treble, and the players will want to succeed. We played pretty good against Wigan and got nothing, and played pretty terrible against Wakey and won. It evens out and even if we had beaten Wigan last week, we could still have found ourselves having to win next week to secure the LLS. Granted, it would have been in our hands, rather than waiting in other results.

To be honest I thought we missed Minichello massively out there am which is a slight concern.
Again I'm just not convinced the CT is the answer for us at 6. Yes he is a talented player but just not creative enough with using the players around him too much individual play for me.
We seemed guilty of passing at the wrong time and then not passing when the opportunity was there to score.

Just need to forget about it now we got the 2pts which was the important part. Now it's up to radford to get them back as a group and back to the game plans.

It was kind of reminiscent of the Wakey game at the start of the season following the Widnes debacle where they stuttered and spluttered (although the win margin was greater) plus wakey were in a no pressure situation.

Just think we look at totally different team when we get quick ptb and last night we were quite slow at ptb for most of the game. We also didn't have the same reaction in defence by letting wakey make easy meters by waiting for them instead of meeting them.
Credit to Wakey though as they stuck to their game for the 80, Hall had a blinder and we got a slice of luck.

Me too partly,I really want to get to the grand final though,win or lose. As much for Financial reasons as anything else. I want Adam to get some payback and hopefully he'll invest further and set us up for a prolonged spell of challenging for the top honours. On reflection in a months time it'll be hugely disappointing if we let this opportunity pass by though and i think it'd send out the message that we're bottlers and unable to challenge when the going gets tough,we need to get the fear factor back and batter teams into submission. I'm hoping last night was a mix of complacency,nerves and the back end of the challenge cup disruption and throw all that in with some dubious refereeing and playing a team with nothing to lose then i think the performance can be excused,as long as we kick on now it'll be forgotten.

A wins a win. Back in that winning circle now and can move forwarD. Wigan we were a little off which was prob caused by large scale changes week b4 and all the wembley hangover etc. But really not hard to have seen a win. Saints game I don't register either way
We're still better off than leeds this time last yeat and they were dominant
Seen enough of hulls character this year not to be worried. If wigan are to do us a favour later I've no worries that we'll come in as hard strong and performance wise to give us every chance like all year

Ps I don't get all this 'what ever happens I'll be happy' if we only win cup
After the season we've had and the work gone in it'll be disapponting tbh. Glad the players ain't thinking in such a way

Are really being serious? Think Talanoa won three pens coming off our line yesterday fighting for fast plays and took 3 defenders everytime he carried
Last year this time he was playing centre getting his hands dirty with plenty graft and looking like the only back who might do anything.
