caravan.



you are just full of it, but keep on going, nothing good on TV...

I was questioning your negativity.

I think if we have Manu and Mini back that will go a long way to improving things. The lack of impact in the 2nd row has been noticeable these past few games. Both hit well in defence too.

That said I do think we will come up short, we just struggle to break down organised defences.

like I said, will be a tough game, and I really hope I am wrong, I'm liking humble pie over the last two seasons.!

48: 54 spear tackle from Hull FC .
Scrappy win for Hull against a decimated Vikings side , and losing talisman Houston in game .
And why were the stewards checking the Hull FC players bags when they arrived at the ground , tad unprofessional in my opinion

Houston?

A wins a win and the flurry at the end will gee the boys up no end
Positives for sure
Loving Connor
We have a soft underbelly which a better team will expose more
Next 2 home games will decide if we are 6th permanently or have a shot at 4/5th
As for attacking flair - take a look at our 4th tackle option on 38 mins
We are on their 35m with 2 mins left and 4th tackle
Surely to goodness we should have gone at it full tilt with ball in hand and looked for an opening. If it doesn’t come then we still have the kick
However it’s just a lazy drop off to Paea and as we have no position on the field the kick is diffused
We MUST have better 4th tackle options in the opponents half
4th is like a free play to use as best as you can when attacking before the usual kick on 5th
It was just lazy and lacked any creativity at all

Anyways it’s common knowledge that we need an out and out attacking coach
Someone smart and passionate about attacking play and options and most importantly ‘Mindset’

Onwards and upwards
The late flurry will he what the boys take into Leeds game

Agree with most.

Also think Bureta had his most effective game, really took some stopping & think error free ? Chris Green also pretty strong.

6 back rowers missing - Mini, Manu, Hadley, Lane, Turgut & Abdul. Need some back next week to beat Leeds methinks.

Yet another scratch performance where we drift in and out of the game and lack intensity for much of the match. Our forwards haven;t really got on top in more than a couple of games this season which is a worry. We're 2 decent middles short IMO

Agree with all of that apart from the syned bit , as 7s go , he's right up they. Think it's Kelly who needs to up is game , after a positive first half , went completely missing in that second half , thought he could of run riot in that second half

Looked injured to me. I would have expected him to score when he made that break but he looked like he was running in treacle

I blame a lot of tonight on our last tackle plays which are really poor. Griffin keeps digging us out of holes which I never thought I say the way he was going last season.

Got it get more strike from our second rowers in attack which I’m not sure we have in our squad at the moment.

Josh Griffin awarded man of the match , Bill Arthur awards him it saying I’m sorry looks like someone has just had their tea off it ....sums up the RFL .

The coverage from sky is a joke. The commentary couldn’t be less enthusiastic about the game and what’s happening. They just sound like there having a conversation in the pub. And the plate handing over was a joke.

Kelly has hamstring problem

Four from five. Could be worse.

Maybe they smelt some thing fishy?

scousers checking what they can knick when the changing rooms are empty?

Burrito had his best game
He made a great taco-le late in the game
He just tapas the ball and he’s doing the salsa all the way to the tortilla line
SMooth as guacamole

A wins a win but our forwards need to find some real intent to their game.
Without Ellis and now Watts, we have lost our enforcers who lead the defensive line in both speed and the will to break the opposition in half. We currently seem to be far too "nice" and unless our current pack can find some collective 'grunt' we won't trouble the likes of saints until we sign one or two forwards who can run and tackle that hard that the other team want to avoid them!
Far too often our forwards are static when receiving the ball rather than running onto it and if some of them could tackle with half the ferocity that Ellis did we wouldn't keep getting rolled down the field so easily!

Best bit was when, half way through Griffins length of the field break for the disallowed try, they panned to Betts with his head in his hands rather than following the play!

That was amateurish. It's a pet hate of mine that while the game is going on they are showing a replay of action from a few seconds ago. They should have a box in the corner of the screen like they have on the nrl coverage.

indeed, considering ot's the same company comissioning the coverage it's infuriating how amateurish the SL coverage is compared to the NRL, especially the commemtary teams.

Are you smoking loads of that eucalyptus leaf out in Oz?


Agree about Bureta.
Strong with his ball carry and loved the deft kick in-field for Jamie's try.
Looks the part to me.

two things:
1)People from Liverpool are scousers, not people from Widnes
2)Scousers are bloody good people
