Sat 6th Apr: SL: Hull FC v Huddersfield Giants KO 15:00 (Sky/SuperLeague+)

[MZH]

There must have been 6 missed tackles in one carry there!

[JohnM]

Not many Hull fans there, even fewer Hull players.  Sad to see.

Yeah, from the kick off? Looking a bit ominous.

[bobbruce]

Lovely kick

[bratman]

Good try, points fest!

[MZH]

Charles reminds me of when a 17 year old Richard Horne was our best player. 

[DavidM]

See that to much in the NRL and it needs watching from refs … back three jumping with their leg out and studs up 

[MZH]

If Sao plays one more game for Hull it will be one game too many as far as I'm concerned. I've really had enough of him.

[DavidM]

Some big gaps in the line there 

[MZH]

30 points conceded like it's absolutely nothing. Disgraceful. 

[JonNgog]

London-esque defending. Could be looking at 60+ here if Giants can be bothered.

[bratman]

This is embarassing for Hull, feel sorry for some of the better Hull players, i.e. Charles

[DavidM]

That is truly awful

Hull represent one of the problems with Super League - a team that is always dreadful and yet is good enough to avoid relegation each year. 

[Wellsy4HullFC]

This is the worst Hull team I've seen since the Sharks era.

Whoever was involved in putting this squad together needs sacking. Absolutely dreadful.

[MZH]

Mandatory card for Hull.

[bratman]

Geez

And now with no threat of relegation they can safely drop their standards even further. Total waste of space.

[Chrispmartha]

Feel for the Hull Fans.

Question for them though, would you prefer Huddersfield to really hammer them or would you prefer to rally a bit?

I know that sounds daft but if you want changes at the club maybe a real hammering will force the issue?

[Zilla Budgie]

Wow, thought this might have been the full time score, not after 40 minutes!

Grade A club thanks to IMG. Untouchables they don't have to change anything till next season and try again with zero repercussions. It's a mockery of our great game.

We won't be grade A next season.

And we're not bottom (yet).

We were saying this at half time against Rovers. I just couldn't bring myself to wanting us to get hammered against them though so I'm glad we had a rally.

Here though, I can only see one way in the second half. Starting with 12 for the first 8 minutes, they'll have an immediate roll on and we'll give up like the dejected players we've become under Smith.

Don't think Pearson can afford to sack him. Nor does he dare after getting rid of so many changes in the last 4 years.

Tbf we are normally just a bit disappointing. We promise a lot and then finish 8th or something. We've never been close to being in a relegation battle. We have never been anything like as bad as this.

If I thought it was going to bring about proper change, I'd happily see Huddersfield score 150. But nothing will change unfortunately.
