Sat 14th Sept: SL: Hull FC v Salford Red Devils 17:05 (BBC/Sky Sports+/SuperLeague+)

[Hopie]

Hull bottom of the league as it stands

[Wellsy4HullFC]

This will hit 70 at least.

[Archie Gordon]

Hull will do well to claim this as another 10k crowd. I wonder whether they will struggle to hit the 7.5k average? 

[Londonbornirishbred]

An unlikely london win tonight and expect a PR onslaught from David Hughes in the National Press

Salford are just miles bigger, both forward and back. Effort only gets you so far. No amount of defensive organisation will make up for one team being so physically dominant. 

Salford are bigger and faster but there’s been so many ocassions where the edges have go the numbers wrong and players going in untouched. That’s more to do with the structure that physicality. 
 

Then you have the inexperienced young players gifting possession with errors etc to compound it. 
 

it’s a complete mess really and I actually do feel for the Hull fans having to endure this. 

I feel if there was any kind of defensive structure though it would have looked a little better than it does. 
 

It’s a truly awful game though. 
 

Anyway, I’m switching over to watch another shocking team (Huddersfield). It’s incredibly painful viewing tonight for rugby fans!

thanks to IMG, what would be an exciting seasons end battle, was actually over before the season started

[LeytherRob]

I notice we’ve moved on from ‘young Jack Walker’ to ‘he’s only 25!’. I’d suggest a forum pool for what point in his career commentators can say his name without a reference to youth but I fear it would never pay out.

56-4 to Salford 

We'll get a consultation somewhere on a wing and fail to convert.

Hope they miss this next kick at goal

Ah well, that's probably the longest period of keeping them out we've had all game at least.

I was so close

[bratman]

How did he miss that?!

[Pigeon Lofter]

TMO spending a few minutes to state the obvious, once again.

[Hopie]

Lots of teams getting absolutely battered this week, the regular season has run out of steam

I don't know if he expected it to look different the 20th time he watched it

TMO?

[Harry Stottle]

Will that missed try by Hankinson save Hull from bottom spot on pts difference?

[JT RL]

Wakefield regroup in Division 2.

Adds to the strong case for a 10-team Division 1

 

 

[ATLANTISMAN]

What a waste of time

SL has moved away from being entertainment to now becoming a foresensic investigation of the minutiae, not what anyone wants to see (expecially when on FTA TV in a primetime live slot).

What an end of season we might have had at both ends of the table! Honestly!

Instead, we have cues glued on the rack for a few months in front of a few k and some utterly embarrassing shows from a game that loves to claim that its players put their body on the line.

FFS!
