Defensive line speed was great, dummy runners everywhere, players hunting as a pack, King Sneyd, Pryce both showing that they are great half backs, Ellis, Paea, Watts bossing it from the front, Talanoa a machine, Houghtons distribution good, even Rankin had a good game lol. God knows why they werent playing like thsi previously. Anyway welld done FC and well done Radford

How are missing pack members responsible for Dixon being out-jumped by Yeaman of all people? Or for Campese's complete inability to defend? Cockayne bottling it?
Did you watch the game at all?
Your full strength pack mullered ours so the backs were under pressure all the time,im sure if walker,lunt,horne,burke,tilse and allgood had been available you wouldnt have found it as easy.Surely you are aware the pack lays the foundation for the backs,and the huge difference ellis has returned to your pack.Your forwards won you the game,end of story and as I said earlier you can only beat whats in front of you and you did it big style.
Hull kingston rovers.

Not just a SL record score, but the all time record for a Hull derby. I thought Pryce was outstanding, the break he made for Rankins try was sublime. If we had a culture of backing up we would have scored a fair few more on the back of the numerous times Pryce and Ellis got their arms free when they took the line on. That said, 8 tries against rovers, more than happy with that. That 2 of their tries were gifted distorts the scoreline on their favour.

Really enjoyed the game and day, will have to watch it back as I had a few, but a great all around team performance. Just a shame we conceded a couple of long range soft try's, but got to be happy with the performance.
Team and coach proving me wrong, which am very happy about bad long May it continue.
Quick Costa, then pub before day 2. Looking forward to a nice relaxing day if rugby.
