Quote ="financialtimes"I watched the game and it was very close, however Skirlaugh bombed 2 chances to score tries in the final minutes and then Stanley got the drop goal that won it for them, Stanley were seriously out gunned in size by the Hull team but made more yards in the tackle and looked the stronger team coming up the hill.
Absolutely atrocious conditions and I would not of like to have played in that weather, well done to all those that played in the games yesterday.'"
I really enjoyed the match , I know a lot may look at it a different way but its ages since I was lucky enough to witness such a battle . I incidentally called it a drop goal even if I got the wrong team and I was proven right on around 20mins that the Bulls should of kicked for goal. Both teams also had 1 clear cut chance to score. even in the last minute it could of been tied had the Skirlaugh 7 gone deeper on the 5th or if they had gone for goal on the 3
its overused this saying but I really do mean this its a shame someone lost on Saturday. It deserved extra time or a replay . Well done Lordy and the Stanley lads and commiserations to Ski laugh.
Also well to east Hull 14s 36-4 winners over East Leeds could of been more.
Lets keep the talk to Rugby Hull were phenomenal and showed why they are 3 points above Cas P . The only 2 clubs anywhere close IMHO West hull and Lock Lane
