GAME ON : Hull FC v Wigan Warriors - 19:45:00

GENERAL CHAT ABOUT THE GAME, BUILD UP, THE ACTION AS IT HAPPENS AND AFTERMATH BELOW.

Fancy a backlash from Hull

Hull by 12

What happened to calling held when a player is being dragged to the touch line?

That is dreadful from Faraimo.

Getting beaten in the air by Marshall should be an immediate 8pt try

Serves SOL right. Good player but can't tackle below the neck

Willie Isa is a massive grub.

For the 400th time this season, Wigan showing they are the grubbiest club in super league.

How?!

a marginally-late tackle that was barely a push?

I’m no fan of Wigan by any stretch but he’s bang on with being angry with Sneyd there. No need for the association football style rolling around pretending to be injured at all. It’s one of the reasons this sport has gone downhill!

I don’t get Wigan fans. They are struggling against a team that both saints and Warrington beat at a canter but because they have signed a prop on £400k a year who’s last good game was 6 years ago in the World Cup, who also drops the ball 4 times a game they are definitely going to win super league next year?? It’s weird

Another Thaler shocker

If Byrne had kept his arm on the ground he’d have slid over and scored. Would have been game over as well.

No way is that a high tackle

Two ridiculous drop goal attempts from Sneyd, he’s been really poor these last couple of games. Jake Connor has also gone missing.

Jake Connor doesn’t seem interested of late .
Will be interesting to see what Hull FC state the official attendance was .

His second one was a shocker. For the first you have to give a lot of credit to Wigan, they shut him down and forced him to try one off his wrong foot. You could argue he should have been stood deeper though.

Interesting to you perhaps. I don't think anyone else really cares. Although based on the TV pictures I would say somewhere between 10500 and 11000.

Just admit that you're bricking it.

We havn't ruled out winning it this year yet

They weren't the best but Sneyd has won us probably 20+ games with his drop goals so I will forgive him on this occasion.

Wigan fans are living on another planet if they think that side is going to be GF winners this season. They are average (at best) and struggled to a win against a mediocre Hull team. Dire and Stains would tear them to bits.

I doubt you will find any Wigan fans who genuinely believe that we are GF contenders

If this game had taken place on the originally set date (Sat 3rd) Hull would have won the game.

Having had their turn around time reduced to just 5 days by Sky, against a team who had 14 days since their last game was the deciding factor. Wigans freshness was evident on their line speed to charge down or put pressure on Sneyd when it became, first drop goal wins. Hull were knackered at this point and did not have the same energy levels to put pressure on Hardakers winning goal.

I wouldn't rule Wigan out of a return to Old Trafford this year just yet
