Nothing wrong with what fages did. He played to the whistle .

As for Griffin if it was a full tear the pain is equivalent to being shot . It hurts like hell so don’t blame him for dropping it .
Depending on the level of the tear probably 6 to 8 months out .

Even as a Hull fan I don't hold any blame against Griffin for dropping it. Disappointing it happened but I've never had that pain before so I ain't going to judge the guy.

Thought they were going to bottle it again, lucky to get the win from an intercept.

At least the Saints players turned up when their fans didn't

Hull probably would've nicked it without the horrendous injury to Griffin, tough one to take.

Tough one. Fages played to the whistle, but when a player is obviously hurt like that it's the right thing to stop. They would have asked the ref to stop play had he held the ball.

Split second timing though for Fages and he played to the whistle.

Did nothing wrong, but I can understand why he would get stick for it.

Unsporting from fages. Player clearly in pain. Should've picked up the ball and allowed himself to be tackled. Disgusting play imo though accept he played to the rules

Is Warringtons 200k a year centre playing? I haven’t seen him?

Cas look organised, they have a plan, and know what they're doing. But their job is being made a lot easier by how poor Wire are.
