2nd placed Leeds' pack came out firing at home. What you'd expect really, on paper.

We conceded 2 soft tries defencely, but gave ourselves a chance after a slow start .
Great effort , very proud. Great season .

We remind me of Warrington post Cullen and Briers and when Tony Smith took over - like them weve turned into a good side but not a truly champion one. Unfortunately winning the CC or LLS does not make you the best team in the comp - only winning the GF does that and Warrington never achieved it and we have just failed again

Absolutely gutted. Has been a great season, another Challenge Cup win, another Lance Todd Trophy, another Man of Steel nominee, more appearances in the SL Dream Team, another top 4 finish and a semi-final. Close but not cigar tonight, we weren't anywhere near our best but no complaints. Another great season and well done to Lee and the team for another memorable season.

2018 - we go again!

we may have not won the GF but we will get there, This has still been 2 fantastic years to follow Hull FC,

Sickly

I'm not overly concerned, the core of the team is still young and there is no reason we can't challenge again next year. There's also a lot of stability with Paea coming back and Hadley and Abdul returning.

I think we put too much pressure on ourselves by losing easier games earlier on such as Leigh at home, not turning up at the Magic Weekend. Cas and Leeds have been able to rest players in recent weeks and its helped them get to the final.

Sickly? whys that? please tell

In parts yes, but in other parts not at all. We missed a fair few tackles and allowed Leeds to offload at will far too often.

It seems it's easier to win a 4 round knockouts cup comp than to win a 31 round comp
Brave gallant effort over the season
