The first half Hkr were truly awful, the penalty count was about 7-1 and you hardly threatened.

When did McDonnell go off injured?

Yep exactly nice way for Mcdonnel to gift his future employers the first try bin the lot of them of let's have a mass exodus

mika and Mcdonnell out for season now anyways

I don't think that has been the case this year though, we have been the better side for two and three quarters of the games this season.....just that twenty minute spell at magic when we blew it.

Not soon enuf oops after he dropped a clanger

Why is Mika out?

Did he break his hand on Turners face?

To be honest I thought hull played really well tonight the attack was something else gentle certainly did his homework I think sandercocks homework was left on the bouncy castle at the fun day on Saturday, credit were it's due BB hull totally dominated tonight. Fair play to them.

Hamstring tear quite a bad one

I'm still confused how an incident placed on report would still see the gobbins given the play the ball.

Well played Hull, played some good rugby, kept the ball alive and never stopped off loading the ball, Liam Watts really came back to haunt us tonight. Manu was Manu, Rich Horne also was good, Houghton and Herewhatever totally controlled the game for you.
We were never at the races, one man rugby, no offloads, no 2nd phase, no defence but most importantly no effort or desire

I honestly think we won't win another game this season.

Thanks for that Rovers.

Forty quid on petrol and just getting back this minute was really worth it for the sterling effort you put into that first half.

Then I stood in a massive dogs egg on the way back to the car, then the motorway was closed, then the rozzers decided to have a practice rolling road block causing a massive tail back.

Hull were full value for their win.

Line speed isn't a difficult thing to do so why don't w give it a crack instead of trundling up and waiting for the opposition to charge the ball in?

Green was terrible, we were far too lateral in the first half.

I can't comment on our second phase because we never bothered to try any.

Five years I've been watching that drop off ball to first receiver and I can't think of it working once.

Like one of the Hull fans commented above, if you can't get up for a home derby when you're just outside the play offs you might as well give up.

Wonder if DJ Stovin stayed up to watch the game in Afghan

Paea, Clinton, O'Hara, Mika and Green were all poor.

Taylor gave it his best, Galea and Hodgson tried.

Paea was pretty good 2nd spell, and Mika was probably our best player. Taylor was average as was Galea.

Mika did nothing, Dobson was your best player.

I never said they were great but they tried, some of your other forwards didn't seem interested.

Mika was our only player to cause you trouble, Paea ran strongly and took some stopping, Dobson had a good 15 minute spell that's all.

All today has really showed me is the lack of depth we have, I can't imagine Rovers having 12 players out injured and been able to put a competitive side out tbh.

Unfortunate if true, maybe Karma as possibly shouldn't have been on the pitch after the Turner incident?

The bizarre thing i've found this year is we almost always used to get out enthused by Rovers in derby games but not this year, we should have won all three. Is the lack of enthusiasm a Morgan thing or a Newton/Cockayne thing?

Also why did Cockayne leave? I don't like him but he is three times the player Latus is. I thought Dobson was dangerous but not enough movement around him and Taylor really ran it in hard. Thought Webster was awful.

The better side on the night won. Plenty of work for Sandercock to get his teeth into. Lets see Sherriff, Salter, Green and Peterson given some decent game time now.

Don't talk daft.

I'll watch it back mate but I didn't think Mika did anything of note barring smack Turner.

Quite agree. Hull are addressing it by binning off the deadwood and making signings like gaz ellis and rangi chase. rovers have signed shaun gleeson

I don't think that's been a case of being "up for it" because it was a derby. I just think our coach has come up with a game plan to win all 3 derbies comfortably - just the fact that ganson gifted rovers the game at manchester spoilt it

I thought paea had a good game green is just average now and really doesn't look interested at all Taylor gave his all, galea was shut down and I thought Josh tried hard, we missed hall last night, houghton got on top and ripped us to bits we were no better than a championship side last night simple as.

Totally agree with u our coach doesn't seemed to have grasped the concept of what the derby Is

Do u think he's got the balls to do it tho put the young ones in cos I don't
