That's it for Danny Houghton's playing career. Not the swansong season he would have wanted, but one hell of a warrior.

Just seen team most obvious 6 again of all season when Tomkins lifted Moys leg, but ref says play on.

I can't recall too many wrong decisions in this match.  And last night I don't recall that many wrong decisions either.

Catalan by 30

By far the more realistic of the guesses up to now.

And the game is free to view on BBC so another national embarrassment for Hull FC.

I feel for you OF. It's no fun when your team is in the doldrums.

It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course.

It takes reasonableness to end that discussion.

The frustrating thing is, that any sort of application in defence could see this Catalans side struggle. But I can't see that happening, and some very soft tries will be conceded.

Stranger things have happened though, but I can see Catalans making the 6 by virtue of having more favourable loop fixtures.

Cats by enough to ensure that Hull finish bottom.

If your prediction of a Leigh win on the other thread (hope you're right! Not convinced myself), then I can't see Catalans really turning up. If Leigh lose, then this is a distinct possibility.

Exactly how I see it too.

I think they have been welcomed this season due to it being an easy two points.

All joking apart, I agree. Although they have many out I hope the players show some pride and put up a fight, if they do,you never know

Well after the Leigh result tonight all I can add is come on Hull and rub moaning namaras nose in it.

 

I might have a flutter on Hull to win this now that Catalans have nothing to play for.

I shouldn't tempt fate, because I know just how bad we are, but surely even we can't lose by more than 50 against a Catalans team with nothing to play for. Can we?

Now you've done it.

Some of SM selections this season have been a bit strange 🤔 

I think that's an understatement.

I'm not sure where he is as regards his contract, but when this one ends i think him and Dragons will part ways, as i think he taken them as far as he can.

Not to make the play offs this season will be very disappointing for everyone connected with the club, and most of all the owner.

I agree.  It would be nice if they were able to move back to or at least incorporate more of a traditional french style of play.  I don't whether the game has just moved on too far from that, but French sides used to be fun to watch.

How long you going back slowdive? Cats gave always had their fair share of Brits and Antipodeans who dictate their playing style.

As for today is Tomkins reffing - sorry playing - today, he looked very upset last night when realising his team were relegated from GF finalists to a bottom half team in SL in just one season, a first time for that to happen isn't it.
