We were better than previous weeks, but still a lot of improvement needed. Lawlor was great for youy, Walker too and the Dane Train had the best game i have seen from him - but the physicality of the ull side couldnt be matched. A couple of dodgy decisions each way i thought - Penalty to Minichello first half when he dropped it, but evened out by the one against pryce in the 2nd half. You need some pace and power for next year but youll have no problem in the 8's i dont think. Just make sure you beat Leigh - I am starting to hate them as much as i do you!



Also - to the poster who mocked Washbrook, Bowden, Thompson, Abdull..... Bowden has been superb this year, as has Washbrook. Abdull showed what he is capable of, assured, calm, creative and very strong in the tackle

The right team won last night.



I was surprised that Houghtons try was not referred to the video ref, but the replay suggests he was level,



Thornley was pushed into touch, rather then being dragged. If you watch the game back on Sky, Silverwood explains the difference.



Not sure why you are making comment on Hull players (particularly Bowden and Washbrook who have been consistent high performers this season), when you had a player in Albert Kelly who simply went through the motions.



You need to get over this "Thaler has it in for us" idea. He really doesn't. I see no one is crowing about Thaler not giving a forward pass from Lunt for Walkers try.



Your quote of ". Amazed they are so high in league but the league don't lie at this stage of season" is a bit of a paradox. If the league doesn't lie, why is it so amazing?



However your comment of " I still can't believe how crap we were" is the one you need to focus on. I am not a fan of Cockayne, but if the rest of your team had the passion he has (and he doesn't just do it against Hull) you probably wouldnt have been embarrassed on live TV.

Beaten by the better team, no excuses.



If we keep gifting a team possession in our own half then we will get by beaten by most side, the worst aspect was when we were attacking was the complete lack of ideas and composure. We have no one with a brain in the side, its almost get to the last tackle then just make it up. Could say that it might have been a different game of Sio had caught that ball, but I don't think it would.



I listened to Humberside and they were lauding Hull as if they played a fantastic game, they didn't they just did what was needed against a poor one. As for having a pop at Bowden and Washbrook. I'd take Bowden over Allgood and especially Mulhern every day of the week and Washbrook does a job, pretty well at times, he's no man of steel but all teams need a utility player like that.

Amazingly none of your fellow supporters hold the same opinion as you.

To be fair quite a few have gone missing, probably watching Radfords post interview so they can make stuff up again.



Using Frankies logic, Webster blamed the ref and injuries on the sky interview after the game.

think cockayne could be in trouble with that elbow in abdull throat, watched it again and didn't look good, imo tilse had his best game ive seen, Kelly blair looked to be carrying injuries, greenwood looks a good lad , lunt didn't looked bothered, the effort was there and you kept going to the end, be interesting times in the middle 8s, as I have a sneaking feeling for leigh going up, I hope it isn't you going down as nights like last night and the matches at your place would be lost and that's not good imo

There were decisions that could be questioned but there always are. The drag into touch is a crap call when its penalised, we got pinged by Thaler last week for a a dominant tackle that pushed a man back over his own line, but for me these are never pens, just good defence.



Too many one eyed supporters that scream for one way but just mumble that we got away with it when its the other.



We've got 7 possibly 8 of our most important games to come now, hopefully we can learn something from that shambolic display but i doubt we will.

Strange how different people see different things, I thought Tilse was a lot worse than last week and made little impact, Lunt tried very hard but with little to work with around him.



I think its only a matter of time before one of the championship teams get up, hope its not this year at our expense.

fair point, I thought we got a few lucky calls and your right we just mumble under our breath about the ref missing the ones in our favour, when it goes against us we go ballistic and want the game abandoned, supporters eh

The effort and commitment were there but the quality to execute meaningful just wasn't.



We should have been twelve nil up after ten minutes but instead found ourselves under pressure on our line and we all know how that ends.



Hull were good and full credit to them, they were very efficient in everything they did. I've liked Sneyd since I first saw him at Salford, but we stood off him and gave him time and space for his intelligent kicks through the line. In contrast, Hull were on Blair and Kelly and stifled them out of the game. Kelly just didn't give a rat's ass last night, and with that Barnet, why would he?

Thought you started very strongly. 7/8 minutes of fairly solid pressure. Who knows how the night would have panned out if Sio hadn't bombed a golden opportunity, followed by a mistimed pass/run to chalk off a second score. As you say, twelve nil up after ten minutes.



What rather surprised me was that as soon as we went in front (to be very quickly followed by a second), your team's energy levels simply evaporated. This may, of course, be a knock on effect of losing the majority of your games this season, but once Watts crashed over in virtually our first meaningful attack, that was it for the game as a meaningful contest.



I know confidence is an elusive, ephemeral quality in sport, but your rapid deterioration in the space of about five minutes must be a worry on your part.



On a slightly more positive note, would like to say thanks to those of you in North stand. Thought the atmosphere was excellent (I know it would be for us, fairly obviously) and as far as I am aware, there was no trouble to speak of, which is always good to report.



For what it's worth, I think you'll be alright in the middle eights. Your team is wildly erratic and inconsistant, but I feel you'll pull enough out of the hat to survive. I actually think you will finish second behind Leeds. So, see you all next year then. KC/KCom Stadium, Good Friday 2017.

Very poor from Rovers last night. It does look like poor recruitment has come back to bite you on the backside.



The middle eights look to be very interesting with Leeds almost back to full strength, Huddersfield finding some form as well as Leigh and London looking strong.



Any ideas how many tickets you sold for last night? Seemed to be the smallest league following you've brought to the KC.
