"One of Marc Sneyd's temptations is to chase the game and overplay but I thought he was patient and that's a really good sign for us."

Fair summation and comment about Sneyd, shows a mature coach who knows what he's about. Nice to see and answers last years naysayers.


Belting 40/20 from Sneyd as well.

Aye, but Leeds weren't one of the teams having to squeeze in an extra fixture then.

So you're comparing a rugby player possibly playing 80 minutes, being involved in multiple 20-30mph crashes to say going into the office or working in a factory or driving a lorry, have you lost all leave of your senses?
They are totally not comparable!

I'm not going to get into a slanging match, despite the conditions I enjoyed the game just as I enjoyed the game at Belle Vue last year. The game could've gone either way & the penalties in question needs sorting out before it really takes over the game, Christ once Wigan cottons on it will be every play the ball!

Great travelling support from Hull as usual & much needed cash into the Wakey coffers, thanks!

Pleased overall nothing spectacular but showed enough game management to win the game. Never going to be pretty in these conditions, a win is a win. In simular conditions last couple of seasons we have being on the wrong side of the result so that shows an improvement.

Ellis is unreal hope he can go around again, just an utter freak. Was impressed with Mini and Kelly too.

Well worth the trip down from Scotland for the game. Fantastic weather!!!! ( compared to what we have) The return trip didn't seem to take six hours because we talked about the game most if the way. Ellis is unreal. The whole pack was good. Manu is brutal. Still not sure about Green or Thompson. Carlos showed he's a much better centre than stand off. Connor is a bigger lad than he looks on TV. I thought the differerence between him and Shaul was he went straight into the line in attack as an extra pivot. He seems to like to be in the thick of it. Good call to bring him off the bench. One more big nasty prop should do the trick. Perhaps Matongo is the answer.
As for the crowd .............. You don't realise how much you miss the humour till you're right back amongst it although the quote to Huby about Ferres and his curtains was way over the top. Fafita took it well. He'd do well coming off our bench. All in all a great day. Bring on Catalans I say .

Think we are under cooked slightly, but I imagine that's because we ran out of steam last year. Think the focus will be on how we finish the season, not how we start it.


Yep

cant complain. any win at this time of the season is a good win for me.

defence seemed pretty good, only conceded one try (which to me looked touch and go, wouldve been interesting to see a video call on that)

sneyd and kellys kicking game looked good.

same stand out players ellis and houghton. think fonua should be back on centre though 'toforafiver' out and bring stevie back in.

all round, 2 points in horrendous conditions. against a wakey team, that i think will go well this season.

big pat on the back for all the players and supporters

Really really really dumb comments..
It's probably the toughest team sports game in the world. They unless the very top end don't earn much at all if you weigh up they get about 10 years of earning potential
I lived with a player few yrs back who was playing 1st grade whilst still on his youth contract. Less than 20 k. Missed his 18th. Missed family weddings. Missed most his mates and family bday nights out for games and training. Used to force feed himself to get the size on required and get in bed as a youngster at 8 o clock every night
Then end of the yr whilst back in reserve grade got snapped back in a tackle and had to have 2 operations on 1 ankle and 1 on the other knee.
Couldnt get around for about 6 weeks and had to live downstairs
Then come the next season he was ready after slogging himself to fitness. Played the yr still on peanuts he injured his other ankle and required surgery on that. He was 20 and had 3 oppertains
A story like loads of players. Who'll be limping and hobbling around in their retirement years. Many of whom at 30 odd will have to find real world jobs for the 1st time as all they'll have done is rugby because a lot/most will not have earned remotely enough to retire
So yeah its just like driving a lorry :roll: jesus
