Don't think we wil hit the 50 against them this time like we have last 2 times we've played them but i am expecting us to win.

At some point something will click in their team and they will remember how to tackle and pass etc so hopefully it's not this week.

I just hope we don't get too complacent knowing we beat them with ease a fortnight ago.

Fartown by 14.

scrap that....

[wakeyranger]

Grade A club Hull are.

[bratman]

Some half hearted defending from Hudds now

[bratman]

Could be red?

Sau goes back to a still-warm bench.

[JohnM]

More than there are Hull fans still in the ground at the end

Probably less than Leigh and Hull scored between them as well

Hull pack did a great job of enhancing their reputation as the softest pack in SL today. That was embarassing yet again.

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

Looks like we've got a real gem on our hands there. Liked the look of Logan Moy too. Confident looking kid who was looking to get involved.

We're consistently among the best teams in the game at scholarship, academy and reserves level so I'd love to know WTF goes on with the first team.

Saints away next round.

Unlike the other teams we've played, they can actually go for 2 halves.

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.

Thought Adam Pearson made a telling comment last season when he said Tony Smith would be his last coaching appointment. I have very little doubt that Pearson has had enough.

Credit to Hull, but this week and last, your resolve definitely stiffened after the break

Well the IMG scheme, which was agreed by the clubs, is good as a Club can lose their Grade A status

Are you joining us? Bet we can beat them if we play 26.

I hope Smith doesn't drop him because of his defence. He needs to bulk up and work on that side of his game, and he will continue to be targeted, but almost everything we did well in attack came through him. Moy also looked very confident and assured and I'd like to see more from him. 

If it was up to me I'd drop a few more of them and the likes of Litten, Balmforth and Jebson would be involved aswell.

Shows you what a shambles we are defensively when we're leaving a skinny kid isolated in defence with huge forwards running at him. At least he's prepared to put his body on the line and get in the way though. As you alluded to earlier, some of our players look as though they're deliberately avoiding contact.
