Can't really see the point in getting too excited over the first game of the season when both teams were rusty, not match fit and had new players trying to bed in.
I think Hull started the game far too quickly and used a lot of energy to which Rovers took advantage off targetting O'Meley and Fitzgibbon to tire them both out. It worked and we saw Hull had to push over to the right more which left gaps out on their left that Green exploited.
The real winner in this game I feel was Justin Morgan. His game plan, interchanges and calm when 14pts down were I think what won us the game. Dobson has proven he is one of if not the best SL scrum half and I think given a few more games Green will become a much envied stand off. Put Ben Galea, Willie Mason and Clint Newton among them two and you have probably the most dangerous threat to defences out wide.
The game still had to be won so well done to our boys who deffinately did it the hard way but made it look so easy. Just got to back up now and Warrington will be a dangerous prospect, a very much injured Wolf that may bite when we poke it with a very big stick next weekend!!!

Nah, neither of us could afford it really. He watched it in Zoological, Clarence for me. Was about 95% Hull fans in there but managed to get out safely.

She's simply trying to get excuses in in case we do actually do the unthinkable and beat the Wire.
