When you say obstruction are you talking about when you put kicks in and our players were impeding your chasers? If so I must admit I was surprised that penalties weren't given. Although IIRC you ended up with the ball from drop outs anyway, so they probably weren't massive turning points.

Not sure which forward pass you are talking about though.

I won't gloat, but I would be disappointed with the efforts of a few of your boys today. If you are outplayed then that's fair enough, but some of yours just never looked up for it, and by the end they had given up completely. That's not acceptable. Garbutt was excellent again though. You would have really been in bother had he not played.

there are 5 or 6 championship players and 1 or2 that have maybe gone on to long , in our team today , garbutt, linnett, are quality a few to come back may just be enough to distance us from london, but willingness to defend is a must when your halfbacks arent doing it, and some were not willing ,saying that 1st period was very even 2nd ended up a rout fc got a roll on and as you well know its hard to stop when heads drop and a few calls dont go your way,no excuses though mullered in the second half and not good enough

Could not go today, and glad I couldn,t...what was that! Full of hope as always at the beginning of the season, but not anymore. it looks obvious we are once again in a bloody relegation scrap, and it looks like it,s either us or London unless things change and quick. Wigan will recover and not go down, Leeds will recover and not go down, but we are simply not good enough and are in danger.
There is no zip from our halves, we need a running half not two organisers. We need wingers who can go the distance, dont, think Oakes can do that, but it,s not just his fault.Personal choice, but I would rather have Shaw out of the two. Addy has gone backwards.The pack without Masoe and Garbutt is getting bullied, and when one is missing the pack gets overpowered, we lose.The team seems to lack the brains at times and makes stupid errors and always seems to invite teams back at us if ever we manage to get in front...Sheens needs to earn his money or we could be toast.
Don,t care how wins come, just get some and get them quick, whatever it takes.

Agree with this. Drinkwater brings next to nothing up to now. Mcgiure the same, Robbing a wage but will score a try soon and the Faithful will say he still has it! Massive changes needed but 100% cant see it happening anytime soon.

Back end of 1st half when Taylor and Ellis went off I thought we got on top a bit and went into halftime looking the fresher of the 2 sides.Lo and behold 1st real Set in 2nd half another dropped ball and we concede and that was pretty much it. Don't know what the completion rate was but felt low and lots of slow dumb end of set plays. We tackled poorly we attacked poorly. To let a player like Logan score a hattrick is criminal. Thought Griffin and Tuimavave were relatively quiet but every time Connor had the ball we pappered our Kex. 56 points tells a story but defending like that pretty much any SL team would have racked them up. Positives few and far but Linnett and Garbutt tried hard so did Hall and Crooks.The rest should take a hard look at themselves. Must be questions why Vai Vai and Atkin didn't play? From a fans perspective the bottle throwing and aggro just was mindless and those concerned want banning. If that performance was the final Derby of season then would be a long wait to get hands on them again but July will be here in no time and it's set up for a decider. Thaler was a herbert again but wasn't resposible for us tackling like hands were covered with Lurpak. Disappointed but nowts broke that can't be fixed.

Griffin was quiet because as I thought Sheens put a quality centre in linnet on him in the end that was the least of our worries

Reading both forums understandably fair few fuming over the score and nature of loss. I see it I feel it but these days happen. Jewitt and Mulhern passengers and the team didn't seem to have the will to defend to any standard. Linnett looks strong in back row or centre but if only 4 or 5 of your 17 are prepaeed to fight then you have no chance. I want to see a team with a massive rocket up em on Monday.

Good old Craig singling out individuals, do you actually go to any matches, at half time you had clawed your way back into the game, the second half Hull destroyed you, Hull supporters out sang you from the start to finish, record defeat, and you want rockets up em, do you really think a good talking to from Tim will do the trick.

Re: Derby Week : Sat Apr 20, 2019 12:52 am  

I’ve just paid my mortgage off with that score

It’s a beautiful amazing thing

Re: Derby Week : Sat Apr 20, 2019 12:56 am  

[quote="craig hkr"],also Logan isn't specialist winger so those 2 need peppering until crack

And so the Voice of RL speaks

I know it’s hard for the Voice of RL to watch the Logan tries again
BUT if you did.....please pick out one try that wasn’t a classic wingers try ......just one please

Also 2 of them in the 1st half when you were in the game you suggest

Record derby defeat - 0-50 at Wembley

I was still smiling at breakfast and have all my Aussie mates coming round and I’ll show them Logan’s tries and ask what they thought of him
Then show them your quotes

What a laugh we will
All have around the bbq over a few cold ones
