Richard Silverwood - wow. Genuinely take a bow. You really did a number on us. Fair play to hull, once they got a lead they closed the game out superbly like a top top team.

Cracking game of RL. We should have taken the two when had the chance. Hull looked very good tonight, deserved the win tonight. Well done

As for Silverwood its all about him

Best team won. Some strange stuff from us at times, thought we just needed to calm it down a bit. Take nothing away from Hull though, the way they came back in the final quarter was superb, controlled the game and it never really felt like there was a threat of us scoring.

Long season though and we will take a lot from all this. The easy stroll through the 2011 season did us no good. Onwards and upwards!

Disagree on comments re Silverwood.

Game changer when he didn't give that penalty at 16-16 which was as clear a penalty as you will ever see.

Mind I heard something today before the match from one of the touch judges that makes you wonder about the impartiality of the officials.

Think Wire were really arrogant in not taking the 2 at 16-16 in front of the posts after only scoring tries from kicks, we really built off that.

Yeah no arrogance from me as alot of the Hull fans think we are.Best team won + both teams will be thereabouts come the end of the season.

Sverwood was poor at times for both teams. We were brilliant defensively and Warrington attack was poor. You scored of kicks (very good kicks may I add). Hull was deserved winners IMO. Warrington will bounce back well because they are a top team. With Ellis getting fit, Westerman and Tickle to come back along with young Aussie half Jacob Miller coming across, don't write us off!

Do tell... After that performance it wouldn't surprise me. A couple of my highlights:

- not going to the screen for their first try.
- not giving a penalty after they liked it out on the full and briers took the quick tap only to be tackled before the 40m line by a hull player still running back.
- forward passes x15 (or so)
- no offside when ratcheted knocked on leading to their try.

Notwithstanding the above - hull wanted it more and stepped up. Superb kicking game in the 2nd half.

Didn't you score after Monaghan poked the ball out of Ogre's hand and that pesky Silverwood gave you a scrum ? And how many forward passes did you throw in the last 10 minutes ? Should have been 6 tries to 3 not 5.

Great game of SL well done to both teams.

What you laughing at, we got 16.

There was that, but I don't think it would have made a difference. All academic now of course, but Hull deserved the win. Also from my understanding Lineham should have had that try early doors allowed too.

If you think the ref cost you the game you are too blinkered to be objective. The "push" on Atkins was a soft decision to not allow the hull singers an opening try. The constant chirping in the refs ear, the appealing for decisions like a spoilt soccer player. The reef by MM not given. I could go on, but I think the point has been made.....

Oh + 14 start on the handicap for Hull was stealing money as especially with their improvement in form.Win win

And the excuses are;



Or,



I think I win hands down. Judging by the posts on here, our loss had nothing to do with FC being the better team on the night, or us saving ourselves for the GF. The loss was due to Silverwood's bellow par performance, the chicken chocker.

15 forward passes! What a brilliant load of make believe.





Silverwood was as bad if not worst for us. Especially in the first half.

It was a great game of rugby league between to quality sides. Best team won.

The 15 was tongue in cheek... Biggest decisions went your way. Fully agree the best side won though!

couple of dodgy decisions from ref but when isn't there, no complaints from me about silverwood, hull won the game for themselves

thought wire put up a decent show but on the night we weren't good enough to beat a very impressive and commited hull... massve credit to hull and the speccies who came over not easy doing the full 62 on a friday night!

Does Silverwood believe were a big team now (Hull Fc) haha.

Great game of rugby league on show tonight. Best team won.

Got to say though, you looked tired towards the end.

Decisions only become big if a score comes off the back of it. You wouldn't be bleating if Hull had bombed any chances off the back of wire errors / fortunate calls.

Wire didn't take advantage when fortune looked on them, Hull did.

That's the game.

Full marks to those Wire fans who say Hull deserved the points. That's as well as we've played all season.
Fair comments about Silverwood who, to me, is a very poor official who has shafted us on quite a number of occasions. I'm sure he'll play for you before the season is out.

Hull were good for the 2 points tonight. It was a good arm wrestle and credit to them. Long way to go. Keep the faith.

We have been waiting for that for years - maybe one day! Bring back Ganson - best ref by a country mile. That big ginger one hasn't shafted us either (yet) so get him out the championship!

I thought you did.



And, unfortunately, as well as you will play all season. Just my opinion.

I think you'll drop off from here. I'm not too despondent about the wire performance tonight. I thought we dominated for large parts, and could have won the game.

No doubt about it Hull deserved the two points. What worried me more was how tired our forwards looked. For the majority of the second half it took till the 3rd tackle for all out players to be onside. A big fan of Waterhouse but he looked spent and should have lead by example more.
