| Anyone seen his post-match interview.
Here you go:
Hull coach Peter Gentle was furious after his side's 27-26 home defeat to Wakefield, insisting Trinity prop Justin Poore should have seen red for what he labelled a "disgusting" challenge on Shannon McDonnell.
Poore, who has already served two bans in his first season in Super League, was put on report by referee Tim Roby for a 64th-minute "spear" tackle on Hull full-back McDonnell.
Gentle expects the Australian forward to be charged by the Rugby Football League's match-review panel on Tuesday and suspended for a third time.
"It's lucky that Shannon is not in the spinal unit," he said. "I thought it was disgusting. I am sure someone else will get the benefit of that."
Gentle could hardly conceal his disappointment at a third straight defeat which effectively ends his side's bid for a top-four finish.
Hull's 20-year-old centre sensation Ben Crooks scored a hat-trick of tries for the second successive match but it was once more not enough to save his side from a surprise defeat.
The Black and Whites thought they had snatched a point when centre Kirk Yeaman's 73rd-minute try tied the scores for a fourth time but Wakefield centre Lee Smith won it with a drop goal in a dramatic finish.
"I believe the effort is there but the execution is just nowhere near good enough," Gentle said.
"I'll give them a bit of slack because Jake (scrum-half Jacob Miller) has only just come in but our execution was disgraceful and we're compounding the problem with penalties.
Confidence
"It's extremely disappointing at the moment. I think we've lost a bit of confidence. I brought the senior players back but I expected more tonight and I don't think we got it.
"We're all frustrated, we've just got to continue to try to get it right. We need to stand up as a team."
Hull's misery was compounded by a calf injury to stand-off Daniel Holdsworth.
"We'll get him scanned (Tuesay)," Gentle said. "I'm not sure about the extent of it but I can't see it being short term."
Winger Peter Fox scored two tries for the Wildcats' and former Hull boss Richard Agar said: "On balance, I thought we probably had the best of the play.
"It was a scrappy game and the levels for both sides was not up up to where it should be but I can't fault my players' effort and commitment.
"In the second half we didn't commit as many errors, which was a feature of the game, and when we needed some plays our big players came up with them.
"Hull kicked better than us but we came up with a couple of kicks that won the game.
"We showed a lot of character and tenacity in defence. Our alertness probably let us own but our effort all-round was very good."

Is he for real? He should have a look at the challenge on Lauititi last week. At least McDonnell landed on his back. Ali was dumped straight on his head. Major overreaction.

tbh I didn't think it was clear cut and don't have too many issues with the VR decision given - benefit of doubt tends to go to attacking team especially when the ref on the ground played on.

Well we were astounded at the ground. Looked a clear cut no Try to me.
I'm just pleased it didn't affect the final result.

| I don't rate Hull as a top team. Wakey put them on a good run earlier in the season it was only a matter of time before they hit a blank spot.
The Hull public will soon turn on him, and he will be off.

| How can you moan when you coach your side to tackle high and interfere with the opposition play of the ball at every opportunity???

| I think Gentle is feeling the pressure. He was being touted as the next big thing when he was looking for a job but he isn't doing that well with a good squad. At times they are very good, like against Warrington, but mostly they are a mid-table side.

So nothings changed then for FC, although getting rid of Agar was going to make such a difference!!!

| Rather unseemly drama queen reaction from Mr Gentle - the tackle looked ugly but there was no malice in it; as soon as Aiton saw what was going on, he lowered him to his back. No spear, no spinal unit, no drama. I don't like to see a coach or another player trying to influence the disciplinary decision in this way and if I were Mr Agar, I'd be using this petulant outburst to my advantage at the hearing.
I note that he has no concerns about his own team's constant high tackles, laying on and interfering with the play the ball.

| The cries of a desperate under pressure coach. The tackle was good and solid, same as many tackles seen in the NRL week on week. Ellis did lose the ball in the tackle and Thaler gave the wrong video decision.

| Maybe he just forgot that move when he was coaching them to wrestle at ever ruck!
It's called the Aiton/Poore bomb!
I can see a suspension and fine for this?
Shame because there was no malice in it!

According to hull board he got a caution and told to watch his tackling technique

| That was the worst I've seen FC play in a long time. I really couldn't believe we were still in the game, it was almost like the FC players had a bet on you to win with the effort in defence and dropped pass. You must be disappointed to only win by a point

Not really , I'm one of a few FC fans who know were not good enough and didn't book grand final tickets after we beat Wire. We have being very poor for about 6/7 weeks and the forward pack is no exisistant. I'm just saying thought you dominated more and at one point Wakefield kicked to touch about 5 minutes to go looked like you were happy with a draw at the point. We handed you the drop goal, all I'm saying is with the amount of the game you had under control it must be a worry that you never nearly didn't win.
As for FC I expect us to drop into freefall just scrape the 8 and probably go down in vain at the first hurdle in play offs. So far from sour grapes from me, just giving my opinion.

Isn't that the same as what a section of hull fans have been saying over the past weeks every defeat?
Two scratchy teams, but a few more glimpses of class and higher effort levels saw us take the points.
Stop towing the party line and discrediting every winning team you face by justifying with the same old "worst performance" tosh.
Bore off thankyou

I was in Turkey last week so didn't see the Cas loss, so never commented. However last week we played a very young side, this week we brought players back so had no excuses. If you guys can't debate fair enough just offering an oppositions insight into the game. We have had an excellent home record since Gentle took over and last night was way below that standard. As I have said our forwards are old and not good enough. You guys must have ed yourself when we signed Johnson.
You were the better team im mot denying that hence why I asked if you were worried we practically had to set you up for the win. You can call this a massive win if you like but in reality that type of performance (from either side is not good enough).
I think you will finish stronger then us, we have just lost back to back to two teams outside the playoffs. One that's coached by a coach we considered not good enough to coach our team. FC are in freefall.

To be honest that’s the worst I’ve seen Hull play for a long time too, especially in the second half. The full length try from broken play, the “dodgy” one & a speculative high ball, they were hardly well crafted – very predictable.

I don't buy that - but for that ridonculous VR decision, it would be have been a much more respectable scoreline and we could have avoided having to use our special drop-goal technique to finish things off.
