Back to the game.

I think it was a missed opportunity to give Doro his debut.

Mamo on the bench, means we a forward down, for doing the hard yards.

Doro needs to be exposed to SuperLeague standard RL ASAP, but Co-Vid 19 means there will be little opportunity short term.

Maybe he will get a gig in the Challenge cup game whenever that is played?

Yeah it would have been ideal to play Doro, and seeing how little mamo played he couldn't have been any worse.
I hope he gets a game soon as it would be good for him to get a first team game and shows him what level he needs to be aiming for

What did mamo do wrong when he came on? I thought he went alright, King did well in second row and we didn't look disrupted at all. The week before it was a waste of a bench spot but on Thursday it was worthwhile having a back on the bench.

Back to commentators....

Lots of views on who is not good enough.
None that I've seen proposing who should replace the current incumbents.
The same goes for people's views on refs....

I listened to the RL app match between Hudds and Toronto.
I thought Eorl Crabtree did an excellent job - informative and technical.

Oh i'm not saying he played badly, because he didn't. But i thought for the amount of time he was actually on the field was it worth it?
To be fair it's easy to access in hindsight and Say Doro should have played, but i hope he does get game time this year.
Oh on another note does anyone know what's up with Luis Johnson and why he's in the Hospital?

As things turned out it would have been a good time to play Doro off the bench. He could even have played Wolfie for 10 minutes and got away with it but the point is that we could have lost a player early on due to injury or Hull FC could have turned up on the night and things would have been very different.

Did anybody actual think, prior to kick off, that Hull would implode in the way that they did?

Not at all, i was expecting a very close really bruising game. It's like they had all given up before the whistle blew.
Very strange to watch and like i've said it was good to get the win but we weren't amazing, but if it ups the confidence of Widdop and Austin i'll be happy

I expected a Wire win as FC had a tough game the week previous....and Wire easily didn’t.
I also expected a Salford win with Pies being 2 forwards down.
