After a trying 4.5 hour journey i've arrived in Hull, now would like a performance along the lines of Salford at home to cheer me up 9but without the sloppy tries at the end)
Please don't let me down!


So Talanoa, Thompson and Turgut added to the 19, I'd like:
Shaul
Fonua
Micheals
Yeaman
Naughton
Tuimavave
Sneyd
Taylor
Houghton
Watts
Manu
Turget
Thompson

Green
Pritchard
Bowden
Paleaaesina

Turget to start which will show that Radford has confidence in him.

its been a fine day over here, only one or two very isolated showers around and with no rain forecast for this evening plus light winds and warmish, it is a very good night for some open rugby

Looking forward to coming over for this one, I have to say I am a bit apprehensive. Going to be close, I reckon Hull by 8 points.

As long as we win I don't mind the score but I am getting a bit edgy with these close wins. I would like to think we will demolish them tonight but we will see.

I don't fancy us for some reason , we won't win another close game . They's are the games we always slip up in when we're expected to win . Either us by 16 or them by what ever !

Carlos pulled out in the warm up. We'll do well to win this without a stand off.

i would have put Naughton to 6 and played Talanoa on the wing.
We are going to struggle here

Not feeling it tonight. High error count and 6 points behind already.

40-20 from Brough now.

Defence has vanished again. Attack ain't up to much either.

6-12 to the Giants and all of it down to our mistakes.

Not sure about this game at all. Defence all too porous but still scoring tries.

What's a 40-20?

We haven't kicked one since 2014. Noses in front thank god!

Feka is finished at this level.We always concede when he is on the field

Nip and tuck. We look a bit jaded in parts and are obviously without (so far) Talanoa, Tuimavave, Pryce, Minichiello, Ellis and Washbrook. That said we've held our own in the first half.

Talanoa is on the bench.Dont see the point of that at all
Still think Naughton would now be the better option at 6 and bring Talanoa on to the wing.At least he would provide a bit of pace to run at the defence and maybe try and find a gap in the second half.
At the moment its too easy for Huddersfield to defend

Reading the comments on here we must be getting hammered.

All happened when Danny Brough went off and as soon as he comes back on they score again

Was always the one to watch, complacency was warned against, still time, just a worry we can't capitalise, hope the defibrillators are charged at the KCOM stadium

Oh so we wasn't winning 24-16 when he got binned?

Great effort in the end, albeit very frustrating at times. Was always going to be difficult and when we lost Carlos before kick off I really did fear the worst. Could do with some players back before next week.

A decent performance that considering the team, ground out a win.
Plenty of effort and good controlled display from Sneyd.
A couple of soft tries conceded but Huddersfield are a massive side and there was definitely a bit of fatigue out there today.

excellent win when you consider just how disruptive the loss of carlos must have been just a few minutes before the game started, with little time to reorganise. pretty specialist position (one of the few remaining in RL) and they (and especially radford) handled it well

Really good performance in the second half, did what was required but played entertaining rugby too and closed the game out comfortably. Depth in the forwards is serving us well with Ellis, Mini and Washy all to come back. Good rotation from Radford.

A good win, and the most pleasing aspect was how in control we looked in the 2nd half
