Losing by 14 to the best team in the league isn't a particularly too bad in my opinion. It's just the manner of the defeat conceding 4 trys in 10 minutes which makes it feel a much worse loss.

We sounded stupid with and without the ball in the second half.

Think the worst of it today wasn't actually the defeat, but the inhuries.

On to the next one. Wigan away

Not a disaster, but, same old same old, can’t deal with adversity, players coming in not good enough. Are we to only judge this squad when it’s fully fit, like some on here think, not to down beat, but I really hope we ain’t in for another season of excuses

Not been today but saw the bench and expected something like this. Who's available for next week from this list of current absentees?
Faraimo
Naulago
Tuimavave
Kelly
Satae - no
Houghton
Ma'u
Savelio
Bowden
Cator

Saints were dominant all the game so 14 points doesnt reflect their dominance in the match.
Our discipline again was poor,with penalties backing them up the field too often.
Sneyds early kicking from hand was again poor and Connor put two kicks directly out of play,the last started the Saints run of tries.
At least Albo will be back next week at the expense of the sulking sultan

Sadly I think it should be last season for Bowden

Gareth Ellis was a plus. Great first half stint by him.

I'd like to have a look at Saints first two tries, both looked dodgy, second one looked like Mahe caught the ball and the Saints player knocked it forward out of his hands

Some positives and negatives to take from that one. Time to eat some pie.

Re: Hull v Saints 16th Feb : Sun Feb 16, 2020 5:26 pm  

Having Houghton, Fash and Johnstone on at the same time was a real error from Radford. Especially when Masi was still fresh sat on the bench.

I thought we were sitting pretty at half time, 6-2 up and I think we'd only made 1 interchange. It looked like a masterstroke from Radders.
