85 tackles for Danny Houghton. No misses. 215m for Carlos.

I came here to point out the same. 85 tackles on its own must be a superleague record.....but to not miss a single one is ridiculous.

The guy is a machine

Two great defences on show , Wire definitely up for it. Jesus H Christ, there’s always a scape goat for him, now it’s a young kid playing stand off

Keep the same set up and let him grow. Wakey next, let’s see how he goes. How are you Patton?

We was not fortunate to have only Hudds and Salford as our loop fixtures, Rovers got tougher fixtures for finishing bottom. You don't get rewarded for finishing bottom.

Reynolds has transformed the shape of our attack and whilst he has worked under Hodgson probably made the transition easier. He tweaked his hamstring won't be the first or last player to do that this season. I'm not concerned at all he seems to be embracing the club and at no point does he look like he is here for a holiday.

By an our of sorts Warrington, I presume you mean they've lost one game ?

Say what you like but we've conceded 5 tries in 3 league games, in comparison you concede that a game. We may not be the finished article but I've seen nothing from the opening games to make me any less optimistic of a pretty decent season.

Just ignore him, its easy to post on here and criticize Hull after your own teams win and our draw.

If he thought this why didnt he post this about our easy start and Reynolds after the Salford win.

Still early days, but very promising signs, defence looks very good and attack good in patchs.
.
Already 3 more points than last year

what a contrast watching hulls game yesterday than the 2 nrl games earlier in the day with 15,20 thousand watching.crowds and atmosphere make all the difference.

I felt we gave all we had, and that is sometimes all you need. No wonder Houghton looked flogged when an opportunity to run presented itself, outstanding effort. Get the scrums back, before we all lose more players to injuries in this non stop breathtaking spectacle we have created for ourselves. Jordan Lane and the rest of the pack mammoth effort.

some great tries were scored from scrums,including the memorable topliss runaround try in 1982.need to keep them.

Thought Ben McNamara played well, he was steady, did well defensively and probably did what was asked of him by BH. By giving him the opportunities he and the team will only improve with the experience he gains. I really don’t see the logic of moving Carlos or Connor out the positions they are playing well in just to cover at 6 when we have a young lad who is more than capable at stepping in. To be honest moving players around and out of position just to cover would hurt us more both short and long term.

My impression yesterday was that the players seem to be buying into BH’s ethos. The heads never went down and we kept playing. Some of that defensively must be in some way related to being coached by Gaz Ellis.
No doubt he’s still learning the ropes , but he must be one of those that when he speaks, players listen.

Whatever happened to craig hkr and Rubyred1?Absolutely top quality posters but MIA.

The one thing baffling me is having Cameron Scott on the bench, we played with three subs yesterday.
Great to see how the defence has improved.
Not BH fault but the squad is unbalanced and hopefully he will sort it next season

Should have put Johnstone onthe bench.

Total waste to not use a sub , particularly in a tight defensive game that was 90 minutes

.

Maybe they will return, when the winds of changes shift.

Unless the plan was to move Griffin to second row at some point but then Lane was having a stormer so the move never materialised.

First time we've not lost in the opening three rounds since 2009 (least said about the rest of that season the better) and only the third time since our debut in Super League in 1998.

Carlos, Houghton and Lane in the Super League team of the week.

Carlos just behind Hardaker in competition metres so far. Good to see.

Official Super League website now corrected to show us on 83% rather than 66%.

Think Carlos has to be up there in terms of being one of the best signings the club has made. He may not have been a big name or a world class signing but in terms of value and what you get in terms of ability and consistent performances from him he is certainly up there with the best of them.

I remember most if not all of us wondered about him as a signing as his was certainly over shadowed by the signings of Pritchard and Fonua, though time has shown and he has proved to be a class signing and real genuine guy.

Our best centre since James Leuluai for sure.

Carlos is on fire this season. As Mrs B says he is second in SL for metres made. He's also second for runs from dummy half and third for carries.

Hardaker has the massive benefit of a easy 15+ metres when he returns a kick too.

There isn't another centre in the league I would replace Carlos with. The only time I can remember his opposite centre getting the better of his was that dreadful game where we got hammered by Wakefield and even there he could hardly move and was bandaged up looking like a mummy.

The hype players like Hurrell, King, Gildart & Percival get compared to him is just bizarre.

I personally think we have the best pair of centres in the league. There may be other individuals who can outperform our two but as a unit our boys are at the top.
