Definitely needs addressing. But tonight we won comfortably despite losing Manu for 10 (great decision by Sneyd to go for 2 when Manu had just returned and we had a penalty - allowed the team to catch their breath for a minute) and not forgetting the 60 minutes we held on versus Was last week with a man down. The boys are enjoying defending and loving having their backs against the wall. We're making playing ugly look beautiful.

Aside from the Manu incident which could quite easily see him given a ban, the only thing I can think of from tonight was the spell in the back end of the second half where we were on a team warning, which we again came through unscathed. I get the feeling that Radford has told the boys to push the envelope a bit more in contact and in the ruck, and we are seeing so far this season the teething problems of that from a tactical point of view.

Be interesting what happens to Manu with him playing for Tonga next weekend, as a ban would keep him out of that game, although picked up a knock so might not matter.

I wouldn't worry, I'm sure the RFL will find some creative way of maximising the number of Hull games he'll miss.
