The gulf in class is obvious to anyone. Even the wife's just said we're making it too easy for them.

Disagree. I thought it was superb work by Atkins. Great footwork and a fend. He's a shoe in for Englands left centre berth.



Also loved the way he mugged Westerman

Really soft tries. Pulling my hair out here because we are making the yards and playing with good intensity, but if you don't keep concentration and discipline you won't get anywhere.



Missing Obst, Whiting having a shocker in defence.

The first I agree. The 2nd was partly the sliding defence problem again, with all of the right hand side drifting in and Whiting not then having the pace to compete with Atkins once he had the advantage. Almost the same as Youngquest last week. Any quick winger will have an advantage over Whiting with an in and out, but we give them the room to do it by playing too narrowly.



I personally don't think the sliding problem is exclusive to the right hand side, it's just more common/apparent because most teams attack using their left more often, and Briscoe is so effective at last ditch tackling he often covers it up.

Give over man, it's not compulsory to blame the ref (unless you're a Hull fan). Wire are a class apart.

this Rugby Union maul is getting ridiculous

Best way to describe Hull FC tonight is all brawn and no brain.

Typical Hull performance under Agar tbh.

Good old Carvell.

Was just thinking the same, tonight typifies the last 3 years really.



Carvell should be missing next week now.

Seems to be a worrying sign that last set in possession; they've been doing all the tackling and hard work this half, yet we're the team bunching.

Again they get the faintest sniff and score.
