Did Washbrook touch the ball?
If so how can it be a penalty (for taking him out), he must have been challenging for the ball if he touched it?'"
I think he probably did challenge for the ball tbh. You Hull fans are wanting the rules to be applied correctly - if Ganson was correct and ruled Washbrook played for the ball, it would have been a penalty to St Helens for offside anyway, so it didn't matter.

I would have too see it again, but I don't think Washbrook touched ball.
We can argue all day about this, the majority 50/50's didn't go our way today, all seems to even itself out in the end.

We tried to defend our lead and lost the intensity and go forward that had proved so successful in the first half.
We looked nervous when in posession and made me nervous when defending.
If we had stuck to the first half game plan than today could have been so very different, when we spread the ball wide, stretched their defence and attacked their right constantly we looked a real threat.
All of that was forgotten in the 2nd half.
Definitely a point lost for me today.
As for Washbrook I thought he was challenging for the ball and rather unlucky but as this thread has proved it is all open to individual interpretation.
Ganson did not help but he can in no way be blamed for our 2nd half performance.

Yep (I'd probably have to see it again too )

I'm just a Hull fan.
But I always try to take an objective view when watching Hull as it's so easy to get caught up in the emmotion after a game and just shoot off at the hip.
Some people can be be a bit touchy and over defensive some times without digesting the facts first.

What a tool!
Thought Whiting had a shocker 2nd half though. Should have let the ball run out into touch and left at least two high balls bounce.
And Horne again had a good game IMO, but still cannot long kick for toffee!

| I thought Whiting had a poor game today by his standards, I just don't think he's a fullback.I think his lack of pace really lets him down in that position by the time he retreats to get the ball the opposition team are on top of us.
On Horne I thought he played well today.

Your right much easier said than done.
I watched Meli score 4 past us last year, he is super strong.

The back 3 all made crucial errors which cost us.'"
Like Kosh said, either left it or waited for Meli to take it and push him in touch. Looked like it was going out to me, though.

50/50, cant take the risk, people on here would have gone nuts if he left it Meli reeled the ball in and went under the posts.
