We were awful. Ref was worse.

Lovegrove dislocated shoulder.

Fozzard torn bicep.

Fox was limping a bit as well but doubt it is any injury. One of the worst performances of the season from Rovers, the game at the KC took a lot out of us. At least we have a week to get back on the ball, and hopefully have Vella back for Quins.

i see Morgan is once again complaining about the ref

hope the 2 players who went off are not as bad as first thought injury wise

Thats a blow

Still in the game on the scoreboard only. Rovers were getting murdered in the collision and round the ruck, Robinson was kicking them to death and it was just a matter of time before Rovers fatigued. If Lovegrove had have stayed on the result would have been the same.

They have big forwards, pacy backs and clever halves. Their coach is top class and has them very well drilled and well organised.

The comments on Thaler are just pathetic.

The Thaler comments are spot on. He is just so inconsistant. You will get two identical incidents within a few minues of each other, and he will give two different decisions!. I know all ref make mistakes which is fine, but he is just shockingly inconsistant in his decision making, need a few weeks in the championship to try and get him up to SL level. He is by far the worst ref in SL.

apparently had 8 fresh players back who were rested against celtic, good use of rotation. thought before the game we were going to be lightweight in the front row. wish millsy would pull his finger out, get a bit of form goin and get back in the mix.

I think both hull teams today have suffered the effects from a grueling derby match, even though we wouldnt of won today if we had had a weeks rest befor the game

We got beat by a very good side. Rovers have to be at thier best to beat them & they were not. As for the ref some odd decisions early on & Giants were stood in front of him every time.You can not blame them, but can ask why we did not push our luck with him. There was a lot of forward passes which is spoiling the game & why cant the touch judge keep in line with the play instead of worrying about the defence line? I watched the Giants tackling as there has been a lot of press talk obout it, It was not nice to watch but apart from maybe a couple nothing wrong & good luck to them they are good at it, Again I must ask why when the Aussies have moved on & now dont allow lying on we have gone backwards from last year. Last year the Giants would have been penalised off the pitch for laying on now the coaches have got what they wanted they are making the most of it,

very good points there, well made

I'd go with that, Huddersfield used every trick in the book to benefit their game, this isn't a criticism of them, because it worked well. Rovers lacked ideas, energy and any cutting edge and I'm more concerned how we react and recover from this defeat than the defeat itself.
