Sums it up pretty well.

I have seen it put more brutally as ‘it is a collision sport and we lose collisions’.

There’s also an issue that we have to sign players many of whom have been passed over by other teams and that’ll sometimes be down to concerns over them being prone to injuries.

Generally this is a major talking point after Wigan fixtures - partly because their superiority makes the result borderline inevitable and partly their MO. If we want to Be better we need to look at how they really operate and never, ever listen to their advice.

At the risk of sounding a bit ‘it’s the taking part that counts’, from the comments I’ve seen it sounds like the team we fielded gave their best. That’s where we are currently.

I listened to the commentary today and did wonder whether Wayne had come back to coach them. Some pretty awful incidents there and I hope disciplinary deal with them appropriately.

Something in the water in Hull. It does feel like we both get way more injuries compared to other teams.

Michael Carter has been quoted as saying Wakefield had 21 players undergo surgery last season. You simply cannot cope with that hit to the ranks.

From the footage I've seen, you've been victim to the infamous Wigan sniper tackling today.

Addled is a b&w who only posts on here. According to VT these cannonball tackles never happened.

Apparently Flowers tackle was just mistimed and something seen in any RL game according to a Wigan poster? Maybe any game involving Wigan

Lets face it, the thug Flower should not even be playing the game at all

The cup final incident apart which was just an individual losing control which cost his side a final I've always seen Flower as a tough old fashioned prop who plays things near the edge. Today's tackle was cynical and not even needed as the other 2 had stopped Storton. It's a tactic Mcillorum under Wane employed and seen Powell isa Leauliua plus the 2 Chav props doing it again last season and half or so. Flower was only doing what he is coached. Should have been a red.

Mistimed! Lol! He didn’t need to get involved in the tackle period!! I hope Flower cops a career ending injury very soon as he seems so intent on doing it to fellow professionals.

He can get involved as the third man but only if he makes the legs tackle above the knees. Clearly goes below the knees and that is a dangerous tackle resulting in injury.

Would expect a severe sanction as this kind of tackle was banned years ago. At least a 3-4 week ban to reinforce the rule.

Edit. MR.

And they allow this rubbish on here another brain dead

And yet another one infects this forum.Also posted on the Wigan one....Sad!
