Two poor teams that wouldn't look out of place at the bottom of the Championship

Well when London are demoted - not relegated, I will wager they will win more than they lose in the Championship.

[MZH]

Disgraceful performance.

[StandOffHalf]

Fair play to London. Two nice tries to hit the front in the last 5 minutes of the half.

London better on the stats board, where's @Dunbar to explain it to me

London leading in 4 of the stats (possession, metres, missed tackles and errors) while FC have a slightly better completion rate and conceded fewer penalties.

This advantage is reflected on the scoreboard.

Is there any of these specific stats you need me to explain?

[bratman]

Ouch

[Just Browny]

Beaumont's phone at half time

That makes it sound like you are better than this and you just aren’t performing but I think this is just the level you are at at the minute.

[StandOffHalf]

The Hull player tugged Bassett's leg after he had got up.

There is an incentive to hamper a player regaining their feet under this flawed interpretation.

Shocking call 

[Harry Stottle]

No way could Kendall see if tgat ball was grounded. His view was obstructed.

He doesn’t have to.

Yup. If he could see that it definitely wasn't grounded that's a different matter.

Defenders know that if a player gets up more quickly than normal they can push, tug, impede and if the player falls there is a likelihood that the call will go against the team in possession.

The interpretation should be about a player falling over because they get up too quickly without supporting themselves. Impeding the player regaining his feet should be a penalty.

This interpretation rewards spoiling.

I am stating for the record that I am agreeing with every decision that touch judge makes.

[bratman]

Very late shot that one

[StandOffHalf]

Meadows is doing pretty well

And that is why we should have a third signal from the on field ref, to indicate he doesn't know.

[Harry Stottle]

I will say it again, we simply do not have enough camera angles for the video ref to make a confirmed decision.

[M j M]

St Helens won a championship with a try like that being given. At London as well I think.

[DavidM]

I knew Hull were poor but geez Hull are poor

[Spidey]

Brilliant

[LEEDSLADGONE SOUTH]

Hull definitely missing an over the hill full back. 

[Stanley30]

Wtf is this commentator on about, gamenover? There's 12 mins left.

Come on London!!!

[Harry Stottle]

From that shot of the coaches put a couple of bowler hats on Grix and Cummins and it could be Stan and Ollie.

[Loiner]

Brilliant effort from the Broncos, I thought Leeds were a basket case but Hull have just overtaken us.
