Agree with above, big fan of Cunningham throughout his youth days and he is started to show what he can do in limited gametime, Radford needs to trust him more and give him more time.
Pleased for the win but what a boring game. It was like Hull and widness were mirror images in their style of play. Lineham was the difference tonight neither team really looked like breaking the line so his 2 interception tries were good to see. Not sure if Clarke or Carney said even with Ellis and Sneyd back we would still not trouble the top half of the table and also wells saying how often we still look lost and misread last tackle plays and after ten weeks it should no longer be an issue. Hard to argue with all of that but still a relief to get through this one.

Agree about Cunningham showing good signs, but I also think he throws a few forward passes out when passing short straight from dummy half. Needs to tighten that up, he won't always get away with it unless he signs for Leeds.
Good to get a win but that was a dog of a game, the sooner the outdated practice of playing twice at Easter is binned the better! Same happens every year that the Easter Monday games and the round after are slow paced turgid games. The refereeing performance was also a shambles, but not a lot new there!
Still a few better performances from some of the more unsung members of the squad such as Cunningham and Rankin. Even though we will have some players back for the Hudds game we should stick with the players who have stepped up and performed this week. For example I don't want to see Yeaman automatically recalled when Naughton, Michaels, Talanoa and Lineham looked our best 3/4 line we've had this year.
