Fabulous play by Thewlis (ssh don't tell Dave T I said this).

He's been excellent. He took his (non) try well too. 

[Desert Skipper]

Can’t we go for two from there? 

[DavidM]

I may have said this before but Baz is totally embarrassing . He literally cant talk or communicate coherently , which i think are quite important for a commentator

[Dave T]

To be offside for an attacking kick like that should see you sinbinned. 

[Dave T]

We're gonna lose this. 

[Ant]

Come on Hull

 

Extra time

[Dave T]

Big cheers because it's over!!! 

[Just Browny]

F*** you Barrie. "COME ON HULL FC"

[Ant]

Aaahhhh never mind

 

I'd not be celebrating that win if I was a Wire player

[Desert Skipper]

Wow. Just wow. Amazing defensive effort by both sides to keep out some amazing attacking threats.

I think?

I cannot fault effort in the slightest. The defence at the end was worthy of it. 

We absolutely should celebrate a win. 

[DavidM]

Wow , absolutely terrible spectacle 

[Cumbrian Fanatic]

Sometimes you've just got to win ugly, not the best quality, but plenty of commitment.

[MZH]

Even at the end with all that possession I never for one second thought we would score. Utter rubbish.

[Desert Skipper]

Hope we don’t have to wait long for the extended highlights.

[Desert Skipper]

To be fair you can see what it means to the Warrington players. It’s not that they can’t be bothered, they’re just not clicking and low on confidence.

Maybe this can be a catalyst. I doubt it, but maybe.

Plenty of commitment from us posters who suffered every second of every minute of the game.

Sky are going to struggle to get there 15 minutes of highlights together 

[Dave T]

I was happy to see the level of effort from the Wire team, 3rd worst defence in the league (based on points against) so to not concede any shows some improvement. 

Our attack was a bit better in the 2nd half, and if Powell can decide what lineup he wants we should get better. 

Ultimately, we needed a win, and we got one, I'm used to seeing us play rubbish and get tonked. 

[gingerjon]

Gutted not to get an unconverted try at the death to take this classic into golden point.

[Old Frightful]

Anyone have a few bob on the first try scorer?

I was just wondering..

[Scubby]

Pretty disappointed to hear the final hooter as I had Saturday lunchtime as first try with Paddy Power.

If you had a tenner on Thewlis you’d be fuming
