Closer scoreline than it should've been

How many goal attempts did Sneyd miss? 4 or 5?

Hard angles I know but kick a couple then maybe we wouldn't have panicke

I agree,but it may be an opportunity for logan to claim yeamans spot in the team,because barring yeamans injury I dont think logan would have been given a chance to show what he is capable of.
Todays game is 2pts and thats it,when you realise we have lost on aggregate to wakey over the 2 games it probably shows where we are.COYH.

Logan will get snapped up by another team who can see good youth coming through. Radford won't give them enough opportunity to prove themselves. The fans can see it so why can't he?

Just needed a win, looked really low on confidence, but we were really dominant an made numerous breaks, while I don't remember them making one (Johnston made a couple from kicks, need to keep an eye on him, looks a raw talent) and the forwards made lots of yards.

Dumb play and poor handling let us down, but at times we played some good rugby and scored some excellent trys.

You had to be there to see how good Ellis was, dropped the first ball and looked injured, but after that ran so hard, set up two trys and great defence, think he played the full 80.

Thought Sneyd made a big difference, make a couple of mistakes, but caused problems with his running, passing and short kicking game, needs to improve his goal kicking though.

Logan had a great game as did Michaels (Who I have been critical of, but is happily proving me wrong, too great finishes today).

Houghton and Pryce ran really well, if only we backed up Pryce.

If we had more confidence and cut out the silly errors we won have won easily.

Credit to Wakey though, look a total different team under Smith, Miller caused us a few problems today.

Our one the line defence was absolutely dire, we're slow in every aspect of the game, and Mickey Paea out-halved Sneyd. Also where have Westy's kicking boots gone? If we're gonna score down our left with Yeamo being out then we need a right footed kicker.

.... good summary, so much better than the radio Humberside/twitter interpretations.

Ellis was exceptional - worrying, though, that he insisted he was ok to play despite being told he needed a 4 to 6 week layoff because of his knee injury.

Sounded like another excellent effort from us and both teams probably happy with what they got from today's game...

We're kind of like in pre season mode at present gearing up for the muddle 8's...As a team who have been rock bottom all year and taken hiding after hiding, I'd just be interested to see how you Hull fans think we will go in that?

You've seen us twice in a week now....we've struggled most of the season missing key players but the way we are building we could have a healthy squad when the Middle 8's start....Locke at full back....Godinet and Tim Smith at halves....our best three props Scruton, Anderson and Simon...and our skipper Kirmond along with Washy and Annakin as backrowers to add to what we had on the park today...

Wishing you all best for rest of the season!

They slowed the game down and played the ref well, we looked low on confidence and a bit tired at times (but we will be after 3 games in a 9 days).

Sneyd had a big part in 4/5 trys today.

Certainly wasn't perfect and we have been a bit unlucky to play Wakey twice at this stage of the season, but it was 2 points and an entertaining game, so better than recent matches.

he will play Yeaman as back up hooker.You cant drop or keep Yeaman out of the team can you

If ellis has to take a few weeks off we are in big trouble,he is one of the best forwards we have had for a long time,thoroughly commited to the cause and a truly inspirational leader.Was mini injured or just rested ? COYH

Injured, spoke in the bar before the game, think he could be back next week, if not for the derby.

the two games we played against each other its hard to judge how you will go, mainly because of our short turnarounds between games


going by the catalan away game viewing, shouldnt see any reason why you wont be in the SL next year with the additional signings you have made

Been disappointed by Sneyds goalkicking particularly when wide out seems to miss a lot.
There are several far better goal kickers in super league than Sneyd

Thanks, he has been very good his season as well.

For major parts of the 80 minutes Ellis carried us , he is an absolout monster !! Thought feka deserve a big shout out , he seems to lift the crowd with his desire and will to run into a brick wall at 100 mile an hour , also Logan didn't do his chances any harm he's still got a lot learn obviously but very optimistic about his future !!!
Individual errors would have seen us loose against every other team in sl today but a win is a win and 2 points all that matters ateotd !!! Hopefully built a bit of confidence and roll on Cas next Sunday !!! Coyh

Agree, certainly out of form, has proved he can kick goals at Cas last season, I'm sure it his form will come back.

Dave ive actually seen Johnston play a couple of times.he is only young but in a couple of years will be the real deal of a winger with real pace to go with it.
Would love Brian Smith back here.it just shows what a real coach can do in a short period.Powell is the same.
Regretfully our coach is so limited in ability, very lucky to be in a job and would have been sacked weeks ago by any other club chairman

Yeah mate that's 100% what I ment ... Best edit quick

Absoloutely not. Keep your eyes finger and thumbs off him!


That goes for Jowitt and Crowther too! Ha

Indeed - Sneyd played really well except for his goal kicking. That's what you meant isn't it ?

Pryce is struggling physically there's no doubt about that.

There's a better one then Sneyd in our squad never mind SL, he's called Rankin.

We tried our best to give Wakefield a chance with early individual errors giving them a foothold in the game. We scored some outstanding tries with some superb rugby league that if it was other teams playing it would be lauded. Nice to see Jack Logan playing confidently and taking his tries well. His break for when Ellis was held up was outstanding as well. Should have won by more but never do - credit to Wakey their two second half tries were very good.
