You were spot on about briscoe,yeamans service made him the player he is,wont do any good without him.

Tbf Watkins was as bad tonight as Yeaman ever was, he would have had another hat trick if he wasn't so greedy/rubbish.

What's this got to do with hull v saints ?

Sky refer to a possible "lengthy absence" for Carvell. Radford doesn't sound too concerned though.

What do they know.....Steve said Leeds pitch was superb...bloody bare patches on it

radford didn't have a clue how long he'll be out

Maybe they do the extent of injury

Said he'll go for a scan on monday

So Radford will know then.

Be a massive loss if we lose carvell for a period of time any idea when green is due back?

Good effort from your boys tonight. I'd be more than happy if we could restrict Saints to a 2 score gap next month.

Like I said, he doesn't know anything tonight

True.

A loss is a loss,but most teams will go to saints and get a far worse scoreline than tonight.

Couldn't fault the effort tonight and was pleasantly surprised they didn't cut us open down the middle. Deserved the first half lead by keeping it tight and were totally in the arm wrestle but repeated penalties and errors frustratingly meant we had zero territory and useful possession second half. Saints worthy winners in the end, would have loved to get Luke Walsh, quality.

The best thing though was how we finally appear to have a bit of structure with ball in hand, players baking calls and shaping up for plays. Refreshing after the Holdsworth dependency and 4 years of Agar telling the players to "play what you see".

Finally, I liked Radders interview which was nothing if not honest. Interesting to hear the detail in planning and adjustments made in game, and calling out our poor game management as decisive in our own downfall.

I believe there was a brilliant tribute tonight for Steve Prescott from the travelling FC fans.

Credit to our City.

Thought we gave the game away in the second half with lack of discipline undoing the work they put in in the first half. Thought Danny Houghton had a shocking 2nd half with poor options & errors at key points in the game.

Thought Westerman had a great game. On a side note what has happened to Willie at Saints?

How did rankin and horne go?

You played very well first half, but you crucially didn't convert that dominance into points.

We turned it on for 20mins in that second half and won the game.

BOTH sets of fans paid tribute to Steve Prescott tonight it was a moving and fitting tribute to him, from the moment the family and friends of Steve came onto the pitch to a guard of honour of both teams the applause didnt stop with "there is only one Steve Prescott" being sung by both sets of fans , both during the tribute and during the game, I doubt there was a dry eye in the house, a fantastic tribute from two great clubs.

Thought Hull where very good and will win quite alot of games this year. Joe Westerman was outstanding and your pack look very big, dident realize how tall Whiting was either. Thought your half backs moved the ball well aswell.

As a Saints fan i'm more than happy with the 2 points, our first win at Langtree over Hull. Your fans where fantastic aswell, good luck next week.

Lots of good support from your lot last night. Your team look nicely balanced this season and will trouble quite a few team this year
Last nights result could have been a lot closer, you could have gone in at halftime with a 16-6 score line, because first half Hull were slightly better..

You could do everybody a favour by beating Warrington shortly by putting them into an early season relegation battle.

I'd have taken that before the game.
Scored 22 against the team who I believe will be the team to beat this year.

I was really disappointed after the game that we let a good position slip. However after reading some comments from both Hull and Saints fans and looking at the bigger picture it's not a bad nights work again really. We have some lessons to learn, but we aren't far away imo. Next week will be interesting, Warrington havn't impressed me one bit. I don't think they've got the attacking threat to blow us away in 20 minutes like Saints did.

Warrington have a a tough opening 3 games against probably 3 of the top 5 in SL.


I doubt they will get the wobbles though as after Hull the safety net of London approaches.

In terms of the cup. A 12 point margin is nothing.

I predicted 32 - 20 so was out by 4 points. But with home advantage, you will get a couple of calls that you don't get away from home and it will be all on.
