Not as much as a joke as the people who can't get a main sponsor for our competition or the people who can't seem to balance the books at most of our clubs

Agreed.

The pleasing thing is that we won, and perhaps avoided getting Sandy the sack at the same time.

As for the Green try:
The only thing I can think, is that Green had his left foot off the floor when the ball was kicked, and he also put himself in our own half before he gives chase.

iirc, you cannot be deemed off side with kick and chase from within your own half.

You are so right - Ganson has caused the game to be laughed at today - don't get me wrong I am a Hull Supporter and am still at midnight dancing on the ceiling. It is alright the RFL apologising to poor old HKR but Ganson needs to say why he gave the try - he looked at it over and over so to say he did not see that Green was off side beggars belief. We all sat down knowing that the try was not a try and then he goes for the grounding. We know don't we and we hit the ceiling. I have been to so many games in my life when 'we wuz robbed' so today do I care how upset Mr Sandy and his players and fans are feeling do are not. COYH

I could be very wrong, but I seem to remember it being said from another game on TV.

When the VR was checking for the off side, that is all I thought he was looking at, to see if Green was in his own half when the ball was kicked.

I think you are tbh.

I didn't have a clue what he was looking for, it was clear as day.

The only thing I can think is that he has mistaken Ellis or Watts for Green when checking the kick.

oh and I'm still loving the circumstances of the win, karma is a bitch.

I woke up early to make the most of being smug for as long as possible.

After having 1980, Hull's inability to win at Wembley and Rovers Super League derby dominance rammed down my throat constantly, the manner of last years defeat left me feeling as traumatised as any sporting event can. Thus events yesterday could not have panned out any better and this is pure karma as far as I am concerned. Some comments and threads are suggesting that we begrudgingly accept this victory with a combination of humility and embarrassment.

Well guess what my red and white friends, colleagues and family members, the best dairy farmer in the world ain't gonna be able to milk this as much as I will be.

A script that took a year to write.

In football you can't be offside in your own half, but there is no such rule in rugby.
