If anyone thinks adding king to the team last night would make a difference, I don't see it.

We were beaten by a better team, and as others have said (as has Burgess) we'll learn from it.

12,000 and odd. Credit to KR, they really brought a following for a Friday night from 'ull and outsang us all night.

Joe Burgess would’ve had a cracking weekend. I thought he played very well on Friday night and then no doubt spent Saturday afternoon cheerfully lobbing bricks at a hotel in Hull. Hope he’s got his feet up today.

Look we have had the measure of HKR for a while of course they will raise their game to get a win against us. My point being we know we can beat them and I prefer our run to the end of the season. I still fancy us for top 2.

Hey Wire have been a breath of fresh air under Sam Burgess I've enjoyed watching you. You are 3rd at worst this year and I'm not saying it won't be even better.

If we are to meet again this season it will be in the play offs ..or maybe even the GF. Hasta la vista.

He is also very good under the high ball and has scored a fair few tries from kicks into the in goal area. How many KR kicks could he have defused ? If he was fit then I would agree it was an error from Burgess to omit him. Lindop could have easily been picked for the London game instead.

Burgess said in his pre game interview with Sky that both King and Philbin were fit, they were just left out. Said Fitzgibbon is a week or two away.
