I'd like to see anyone defend that scoreline, because this season is starting to pan out like last year.

Yes. We really need to pull Grix out for a bit.

Some players now need to be rested and some younger ones to come in. It will freshen the players up a bit for the 8s

Conceding 5 tries in 10 or so minutes is something to celebrate is it? Especially since Hull had a shorter turn around than us.

Gutted, obvious to say but the turning point, shift in momentum was Wood throwing that pass close to the line for the intercept, not knocking the guy he has been playing well. Really gutted

Your right Wilzay.

You can't defend that stat at all.

I hope it's not going the way of last season. All three teams below us have picked up points tonight. I'd like to think we're going to target Warrington next week and avoid the potential slip down the league.

I'm sure there's a point to your post in there somewhere.

Although the result is disappointing,after being in a promising position just after H/T, I think the more important stat is if we came through unscathed and didn't pick up any injuries.
We had won 7 in a row before Salford, now all of a sudden, we lose 2 in a row and the doom squad is back.

Who was expecting us to win with all our injuries, probably exceeded expectations for 60 mins.

Up the Trin

Agree with Ficklefinger. It's only one game, gutted to loose in the way we did after looking so good at 10-18 but still a great season so far, would have snatched your hand off for 22 points after 19 games before the season started

Fair play to the lads really, bit concerning how they fell away but this FC team are on form, not many teams have beaten Cas this year.

No we definately competed with them for 60 minutes, and felt the energy levels were better tvan that of last week.

Without looking for a scapegoat, I feel the 2 quick tries conceded on the back of Wood errors, cant help bit feel they were the errors of a jaded player.

He has been playing well granted, but have questioned whether Wood could be an 80 minute hooker week in week out.

Why hasnt Moules been used, even if only occasionally

Score line flattered us, thought you looked really strong in spells, killer try was Connors, honestley think you would have won if that game, we got a role on after that.

Good noisy following, although not the mocking of the Sneyd chant worked.

Really liked the look ofBatchelor.

Grix has to the worst defensive FB in the league, his attempts of Sneyd and Shaul were appalling.

I can see now why you are so keen on French players.

They are generally surrender monkeys as well - didn't take you long to lose your bottle did it. At least Wildzy never pretended to have it in the first place.

Anybody can support a winning team, true support is standing by players when things aren't going well.

Come on Vasty 5 tries in near on 20 minutes.

How can you possibly defend that at all.

You must have low standards and expectations thats all I can say

scoreline flattered us, thought you look a decent team, you will defo be in top 8 maybe higher

Grix scored a hatrick against us 2 seasons ago in 20 minutes at home!and your sticking up for the forum champion pancake flipper, Very short memory

Also Vasty you mention true support.

True support does mean you stand by your club, yes I agree, it also means being true and honest too.

How can a squad look to progress, if a poor spell gets brushed aside, so to speak and believe everything is rosy with nothing to work on or look at.

I also, if you cared to read further back that I thought the turning point was 2 errors by the same player, both of which led to tries. These were tired looking errors by a player that looks like he needs a break. Thats not a comment by someone slating, that is constructive criticism.

We have a young hooker who hasnt featured once this year, and Grix too, has come in for recent criticism. Again, his younger understudy has hardly been given a chance this year

Why do you think we are higher up the league this season than last year ? Do you not think that its because the coaching staff chris chester andjohn kear has brought in better players such has Grix ! The defencive improvement speakes for its self,

I hear he has been released.

Edited.

At 18:10 I though Hull were looking a bit weary and were there for the taking, but the barmy interception thrown by Wood gave them a huge lift. Suddenly they were back in the game and thinking "we can win this", their energy levels lifted and they blew us away.

If that is the case then I think is a poor call to do that just, like with loaning Ant Walker out.

We also have a quota player, who, according to his CV and his reputation when he came over, can play in that position too.

To be fair to Grix, the hit Manu gave him probably made him think he was at next weeks training session.

Being a Hull fan living near Wakey, its always a game I look forward to, Wakey were better value than the final score line suggests. Wilted significantly after Wood's gift to Connor.

Brad cant even get in the oxford starting line up
