Strange old game that one, can't see many predicting anything like that result. Hull had the look of a team the thought they just had to turn up to win and by the time they realised that wasn't the case it was too late.

Thought Roby was immense and ran the show, Tuimavave had a stinker, but to be fair to him he kept trying which is more than can be said for a few of the others. You certainly seemed to miss a leader out there, replacing Ellis will be massive for you.

Will be interesting to see what reaction you get next week after that, see if it was just one of those weeks or if there's bigger things to sort.

On previous 3 occasions, of a 50pt loss, Radford has alluded to the preparation
prior to the game of certain individuals...

Also, Sneyd & Kelly are a knock away,from being out for a lengthy period
according to Radford..

Last season, we had the mental tenacity to launch a comeback, when losing,
this year, when behind,we just capitulate..

We've been here before, lets see how the players react against Leigh...

Cold light of day, your lot had a bad game. Too many off the pace and missing the leadership that Ellis brings. Last season you had a lot less injuries to contend with and we all saw what you were capable of. The inevitable switching and changing that injuries bring does seriously affect defence as we found out to our cost last year. Regarding Kelly, can't stand the bloke but he will likely go on and win the next game practically single handed. That is what you get from him.

We were utter rubbish from start to finish. A real lack of energy and effort right across the park. Everyone knew what they'd get from saints after last week and in front of a new coach and we completely failed to do anything about it.

Let's be honest, other than against cas and probably wire, we've been pretty woeful in the league all season, scraping through games mainly because kelly has shown individual pieces of brilliance (without him we'd be around the same points as wire, saints and les cats IMO). I'm hopeful that this is just an indication that we're planning to ramp up at the end of the season but I don't really hold out much hope of that. We lack leadership and have a soft underbelly and once a couple of things go against us our heads go down and it's game over.

As for the defence, it's shockingly bad, 449 missed tackles so far this season compared to warrington with the lowest number of 263. Defence is about attitude so you have to question what 's going on

Goal 1 is to avoid relegation.

Turned up expecting to win. Like the Agar years when every side below us in the table was a banana skin.

Like Jake said, defence is our biggest concern, We had an off day on attack, but we know we can score try's, defence has been poor all season, although yesterday I think we were carrying players with knocks, lots of players like Mini, Taylor have also been playing lots of minutes due in injuries during games, need to use our bench better, don't think Washbrook came on until about 50 minutes

LOL NO !

Missing out on the easiest GF in years - that's what worries me

Terrifying prospect indeed.

Think it's ridiculous that there's another 2 games in 4 days for SL clubs the way the game is now injuries are a major part and you've drawn the short straw with a trip to France think you've got to really concede that game or risk players playing patched up that would in turn risk your season

I'd agree, I think Jake has already said similar. Try and sneak a result against Leigh and send the U23s to France. Would be unfair to the travelling fans mind, but similar to what Rovers did against Toulouse which was the right selection in the longer term.

Agree about France and fear the worst for that game but got to think about the bigger picture.

Too many players seem to be carrying knocks and don't look fully fit.

Priority now is to get as many players fit and in top form for the Cas cup game as possible.

We had an off day on attack, but we know we can score tries.

Being nilled is an achievement even for an off day!

We'll make the 8 but if I had to bet yes or no whether we make top 4 then it'd be a definite negative.
Tough regular season run-in and we never know what teams turning up from one game to the next.

Worrying thing is that we didn't even look like scoring, first time we have been nilled in a while though and we have shown enough this year to say we can attack and score try's.

Missed Fonua and Talanoa yesterday, really help getting our sets started and our wingers yesterday didn't offer that.

How many matches have you managed to get to this year Dave, is the newborn teething yet?

First of all thanks for the interest in the family, she hasn't started yet, let me know if you want any pictures sending?

Only missed two, Magic and Wigan, any more questions?

In the Agar years there were often only a couple of sides below us in the table. At the minute everyone but Castleford is below us.

if trawlermen thought green was an unlucky colour,why were LORD LINE TRAWLERS painted green,?

We had been on a 5 match winning streak and are 2 and in league . quarter final of cup . that's the good news. We havnt hit our straps yet and have been hammered in 3 games. We are the Jekyll and Hyde team. So where does that leave us. Lose the next few games and there will be hell to pay calls for heads to roll. Win the next few and we will be back on track. I watched us yesterday and we looked like a bottom 4 team. Have watched us other times and we look very good at times. Some players didn't look 100% yesterday. I have enough faith in the Hull players etc after last year to still believe we will be OK
