Being a Hull FC player.

Caught a Hudds player with his arm after he'd just put a kick through.

Manoa Wacokecoke's try is at the top of the highlights reel for the round so far.

That’s what it’s all about ….

[The Blues Ox]

Would not be surprised to see a ban incoming for Brad day for that tackle. It didn't look great, defender poor head position. Probably a red if its a Sky game.

If it's 2, then understandable.

However, if it's 1, then it's also understandable.

[Tex Evans Thigh]

That forward pass call against Fev is one of the worst I’ve ever seen and then leads to a sin bin and try.

[The Phantom Horseman]

Probably be a long second half for Fev but pleased we have had a dig. Three tries for Hanley but the Fev try was very reminiscent of probably the most famous try his dad ever scored.

[JohnM]

Featherstone doing better than I thought. Their two big guys, though,  only make one player between them.

He said that 2 deflections and a missed barge, which was more what I was personally getting at.

As much as it was a specific bait question, he did bite. I always think as well that whilst Smith makes a lot of (sometimes good) points about the refereeing, he seems to never say "it was the same for both sides". 

Its worrying how poor the attack was. "Actually our defence of our tryline was good" (paraphrasing) was a silly comment to make after that result. Equally, in a Competition where just 3 wins gets you to the final, for Leeds to be out in our first game for is it the 4th time in a row (certainly the 2nd time with Smith as head coach), is poor. This is "his team" now, there can't be any excuses.

Last year we just lost to Wigan (the eventual SL champions) bar a brainfart from Newman tgey would have won.

 

this year we drew Saints.

 

Thats the luck of the draw but it’s not as if theyve lost to rubbish teams, by the way some of our fans are going on youd think wed just been knocked out by Runcorn Highfield

[Chrispmartha]

Anyway im at Batley as a neutral, cant wait

Men against 'boys' as expected, do our best that's all we can ask,Leigh are a very good team.

[bratman]

Another great finish!

Doing all right! In again!

[Old Frightful]

Adam Swift in again.

Hudds 24 Hull FC 6.

[Futtocks]

Hull FC may be regretting letting Wacokecoke leave.

[Northern Eel]

First try of the day goes to Batley, down the slope.
