Phew, we needed that!!!!

TFFT!

Someone needs to reach Turner how to tackle. Some awful efforts against Meli so far.

We finally hold on to the ball and score a try.

The comeback is on!

Get in Briscoe!!!

Well done Phelpsy!!!



Hey.... call me fickle!!

Fortunately they missed two kicks and now Briscoe goes in after good work from Phelps.

Sounds as though our kicking game is back to its usual standards!!

Realistically it won't change until next season.

come on hull, lets have another score before half time!!!

Ray French really talks shoite!

Sounds like we missed out on a 50/50 call there.

Not the first one either if Doc & Pinkney are to be believed.

why are touch judges there if not used!

Could do with a try here before HT.

Bugger!

bugger it

good second part of the first half but have we given them too much to start with

FFS!!!!!

C'MON HULL!!!!

Let's hope we continue where we've left off but convert the opportunities in the second half.

All that pressure and we still can't score.

Can't afford to spurn chances like that against the top sides - especially not when we've gifted them a 3 try start.

Could have done with that score!

but it sounds like a good game and we are at least competing.

Decent first half effort missing Obst on attack by the sounds of it. Badly need to score first second half.

think it has been the usual story of this season, just cant provide the killer pass in the opposition red zone. if hull can sort that out we will get a bag load of tries. dont help with obst missing tonight though.

TUT TUT TUT!!!

Don't be questioning the officials - it's not allowed otherwise you're put on the naughty step!!

In the arm wrestle here but short of ideas to threaten in their 20.

Unfortunately we miss Obst and I'd guess he only pulled out of the game today. Against a team of Saints calibre you can't have 3 pivots who haven't trained together for months and still have an attacking sharpness.

Least the players are giving it a good go though and if we can keep a good defense in the second half, who knows what could happen? Come on hulll

We've looked pretty ordinary with ball in hand so far. Some poor decision making when we've actually created an inbalance in the Saints defensive line we keep going the wrong way. Having said that Saints have only really looked dangerous on the back of Roby and the penalties from Thaler.

Interesting difference of opinion on twitter:

Craig Murdock "Best game of the season for me so far really fast and how rugby should be played FC still in it but need to be 1st to score"

Stuart Pyke "H/T here at Halton Stadium Saints 14-4 Hull but really poor quality - a mistake fest!"
