thanks dave

Seem to struggle against the lower sides who try and slow us down, but if a worry looking at our next three games, but the positive is, we won't play them after that. Need to be smarter patient in the future.

Not to bothered about that result tbh , We looked tired across the park even though we brought a few fresh legs in . A good 8 days rest , Freshen up and we go again against Leeds .

Lots of masturbatory euphemisms

We couldnt keep winning forever and Hudds are a good side. Not unhappy at the loss tbh

This result has been coming for a while. Although we have been winning, our 'form' has not been good. The short turn around from a big cup game, the conditions not suiting how we play, key players missing and a team desperate to turn their poor season around after an early cup exit all made it quite predictable. I think Hull now face their biggest test of the season. Not Leeds. Themselves. Can they pick themselves up? Can they find the level of performance that got them where they are today? Can they 'get up' for another three struggling teams that are going to give everything to repeat Huddersfield's success before the split? Next week is a step into the unknown for this side. Let's make sure that we're with them every step of the way. Come on you 'uuulllaaahhh!!!

Thought we just looked tired more than anything, a couple of days extra rest compared to Leeds should help next week.

Thought Naughton was poor. Positioning for the 2 kicks for tries were poor, and i think Shaul would have been better positioned. He also looked to jog towards the ball when collecting their long kicks. He also didnt chime into the line very well. Pryce was anonymous. Sneyd was too predictable last night. We have looked poor with the ball for a few weeks, but the ball movement was so slow. No change of direction, little movement off the ball - until the last few moments.

Saying that, the key moment in the game was forcing the play at the start of the 2nd half after we had scored. They scored on the back of that and knocked the wind out of us

Sorry to dissapoint but watched the game live, without blinkers, unlike you. You've constantly said " Pryce to stand off, Carlos to centre at the expense of Yeamo" last night proved it to be a disaster. Yeaman would have defended 2 of the tries. Carlos went good at six and Pryce was crap, hiding at the play the ball most of the game. Did Naughton make mistakes? yes he looked tired, yes he jogged back, but brought the ball out time and again, into a brick wall as Coffee woman said, he looked to have taken a knock early on, plus got Mason's knees in his back for his troubles. The game often looks different on tv don't you think. Maybe you'll take the blinkers off now.

Pigs might fly!!

I've always thought that, there is no real comparison between attending a game and watching it on the box.

Have to say Pryce was a massive disappointment last night for an experienced player who you'd expect to see pulling the team together when things werent quite as good as they should have been.

Last night proved that Yeaman (whether yo like him or not) coming back in had improved us massively down the edge and it was exposed last night without him as it was at the start of the season.

Generally though we were flat through the 80 mins and looked a very leggy and tired team. I think the fact we played a very strong Catalan team hasn't helped plus add in the fact the pitch will have been very energy sapping too due to the amount of sand on it and with only a 4 day turn around have all been factors.

Disappointed not to win and keep the run going but not to much as half expected a dodgy performance. Important thing is now to regroup and refocus and come out firing for the next game.

Agree with the last few comments on here thought last night Pryce and Naughton had there chance and blew it, Carlos will stay 6, Naughton back up to wingers at the moment. Yeaman back in after his rest. On the plus side Connor wow what a game more capable of covering 1 and 6 next season outstanding performance. I do worry about our six in the big games though still not convinced.

Just listened to Radders interview after the game and like always he was honest and did not search for excuses.His view on the game was spot on.For me it was one of them games when you have to give credit to the opposition and the way they controlled the game with a great kicking game compared to ours. Dont think the Giants were great by any stretch but better on the night,as the game went on we got more frustrated and Manu really let it get to him. Hope we get a good reaction to this with Leeds and show SL we are the real deal.

Simples for mine.
We missed El Capitano.

Hopefully it wont rain

He may have improved the defensive intensity, but for me, that game was lost due to being inept with the ball

agree with what most are saying, pryce crap should start with tuime, missed yeaman, and missed some players, but the main thing for me was we looked totally flat and tired, hudds played well and deserved the win, So we have a good break and hopefully get some players back, big game against leeds we need to win to keep up our challenge for getting as high as we can, COYH

We looked devoid of ideas and as plenty of others have said Pryce was the invisible man.

One thing that was glaringly obvious was that Huddersfield moved forward quickly in defence at the PTB stifling our attack. We looked to hang back and wait for them to come to us offering them easier yards up the field. Their defence slid very well when we did try moving the ball around.

The winning run was going to end at some point. In a strange kind of way I'd rather us lose by playing flat and be beaten by the better team, rather then the performance of a life time and get done by a fluke / poor decision.

Last night underlined Shauls quality and significance to the team.

Bit concerned that Pritchard never returned to the field. Any news on him?

1 defeat in 11.

2 defeats in 17.

I'd have taken that at the start of the season.

Need a reaction now from the squad and to go on another run of 5-6 games without defeat.

For the record we lost fair and square, but quite how Hudds 3rd try was allowed to stand is beyond me. A clear knock on.

According the Radford its an ankle but no news on severity think he was taken off as a precaution not long after it happened.

One of the things that this club and team are going to have to get used to now is as they sit at the top (rightly so for the effort etc they have put in so far this season) they are now a massive scalp for the teams that are struggling and Huddersfiled showed that in bucket fulls last night.

Their 3rd try should never have stood and quite how the officials missed it is beyond me.

Just think as individuals and collectively as a team last night was one of those nights and it had been coming, no shame in that at all and to be where we currently are is way above what any of us expected.

I'm pretty sure they will have learnt a massive lesson last night and it will a blessing in a backhanded way. As others have said Radford spoke honestly and saw what we all saw so no doubt things will be worked on.

On another note had it not been for the outstanding performance of a certain player coming to us next season it may well have been a different story so thats a positive from last night we all saw what a player we are getting.

SHAUL WON 15 GAMES ON THE BOUNCE IN AN fc Shirt wonder what the record is

Personally I thought we got 3 tough calls in the space of 5 minutes which took the game away from us just after Washbrook got us back in the game.
1. If the Michaels try is not a try then it is a Connor knock on and our head and feed
2. The Carlos knock on that led to the Hudds second try was initially knocked on by Huddwersfield
3. The first McGilvray try was a joke and should have at least been reviewed

So with a tired, depleted team on a foul night we are down 18 8 and all the momentum has switched to Huddersfield
I think it would have been very different but for 3 poor decisions
We did not play well but at 8 6 we were right back in it and getting on the front foot

1. The Michaels try incident was before Washbrook scored, so you could argue that had Michaels try been given, the Washbrook one wouldnt have. Plus it was wider out and conversion could have been missed.

Agree with point 2 and 3. We were hardly depleted, Huddersfield had more players out than us - including their main playmaker who is a constant thorn in our side.

Thought they actually looked a better and more together team without him to be honest
