Did you notice the Bradford players "phalling" off the tackle.

Dont get to many games due to work, but made the effort tonight and glad I did.

Of the FC games ive been to, I think i can say ive been to 2 of the best games of the season, win over Leeds at KC and now tonight.

Also living in Keighley (who I also support), it was all the more sweet to watch Cougars local rivals get a real beating. Someone on Bradford forum, prefers to slate his own team despite the season they have had with the off-field problems. But to me, Bradford had a bad day and Hull punished them big time.

On McGoldricks 'no try', at 1st I thought he had lost it, but after looking at the replay, it looked as if he may have kept his fingers on the ball, so guess it was one of those that some give and some dont.

Many congratulations on your result and performance tonight. I've seen a fair bit of FC this year and that was by far the most comprehensive and decisive performance. Very well executed and a high tempo performance. Great performances all round and good to see Briscoe has shaken off the ghosts of 2 weeks ago. Full credit to Ben Crooks as well, 2 games in a day!

Oh, also want to say thank you

The Bradford fans on their board are claiming he nearly broke Crookes' neck

Did not expect that, thought it would have been a much closer game with Bradford needing the points to consolidate their top 8 position. Massive pat on the back to the team, fantastic effort both in defence and attack. Everyone played their part from 1 - 17 but special mention should go to Ben Crooks for his 160 minute stint in one day, well done Ben

By the way, how did the 20s actually get on? Haven't heard anything about their result.

Think they lost 26-22 .Crooks played second row ,Shaul had a good game from reports

He wouldn't have been able to put the head in and throw 2 punches if he had.

Just seen it again and he lands on his back (just), but Seymour does have hold of one thigh as he tackles him.

who was that team playing in hulls away strip that led the bulls to the slaughter???

The player still ended up in a dangerous position, clear penalty. If Thaler had given it in the first place the tempers probably wouldn't have frayed.

Correct, but not a spear tackle or in need for any card like some have claimed on your board.

If that tackle's dangerous and needs penalised, then the game is going downhill. It was an excellent tackle, and a hit that Yeaman puts on quite regularly.

It was the correct decision within the current rules. As a RL fan of 20 odd years I still find it hard to explain to people new to the game why dangerous play is often only a penalty but holding down can be 10 mins off the pitch though. That is another debate though.

Aye...was a great big fook up wasnt it.

Superb display from all of the players. We played with lots of freedom in attack which was great to see and seemed highly motivated.

Imo it was a penalty for a dangerous tackle but I don't think it was seymours intention. He put in the hit and momentum took his legs above the horizontal. A few more degrees and possibly a bad injury, but thankfully not.
Can understand crookes reaction but also seymours.

Good perfromance by us. Thought Westerman was immense as was Lynch, Houghton and O'Meley was pretty good too. What was Rovers thinking letting Watts goo, the guy is fantastic and if he keeps this up will play for England no problem.

As for Bradford, well what a joke performance. Elima just going for penalties all the time but worst of all was Diskin who looked MASSIVE and was clearly narked that Houghton was a million times better than him so tried being the big man but always came off worse

Worked out Ok, still think we should have an 18th man fresh though, has we played a better team it could have backfired.

I think Crookes should be at Red Hall next week for going in with his knees on Mcgoldrick after he'd already been tackled. Mcgoldrick seemed to been trying to tell Thaler that's why he was having to leave the game.
As for Seymours tackle nothing really in it as he as was dped clearly on his back but Thaler rightly called it I thinkpurely as Crookes momentum put his legs higher but no intent for me.

It was Luke Gale who has second in on McGoldrick.

Wrong and wrong.

Nicklaus was 18th man but would have meant altering the whole back line about for 1 player,something agar would have done but gentle went like for like.

Yes it was, my mistake that who i meant

Looking like last night's win has secured sixth. Huddersfield losing 40-6.
A home draw against Huddersfield in the play offs it seems. A good chance to progress.

I think its the best playoff tie of the lot, Huddersfield have been in freefall the last few months, and i'd rather face them at home than an in-form Wakefield or Bradford out for revenge for last night.
