Well played Wigan, they were smarter on the night, it takes a good team to beat us these days, no excuses, they don’t bleat when players are missing, neither should we, Hull gave there all, we can ask for no more. season over poppycock.

last year when we beat Wigan,Shawn Wayne said "if that game had been on TVs,we would have won" well ,same applies to last night,sargensons try was doubtful,even pinkie commentating said it was no try.prity sure it was Wigan,but feel free to correct me,if I'm wrong.

it was a great game, without the weather we'd have won that. without half our side playing. Roll on the top 8 because we will be stronger for that experience. i really enjoyed it and thought the right edge looked exceptional. Faraimo is an absolute beast. Logan stood up well. Washy never lets us down and the ball to connor was sublime. we go again.

Instead of acting like an idiot, why don't you come up with a compelling reason you think we will make the top 4?
No one but you has said we should throw in the towel but the reality of the situation is we're down 7 or 8 players and doing it tough. I'm sure you'll agree that radford and the youngsters he's developing have done an amazing job for us even to be near the top 4 given the season we've endured with injuries but the cold, hard facts are that if the teams above us win their games in hand we'll be 12 points behind saints, 8 behind wigan, 6 behind cas and 4 behind wire. That's a lot of ground to make up and we're reliant on those teams losing enough games for us to be even in with a shout. Difficult at the best of times but a really tough ask with the injuries we have and when players are likely yo be back.
Another thing to bear in mind is we've yet to win a game away from the Kcom against any of the current top 8 (still a couple to play) and also lost away against 2 of the current bottom 4 so it doesn't seem likely we'll go on a long winning run to me.
Just my opinion of course and I'll carry on watching and enjoying games but it doesn't alter my opinion that we'll finish between 5th and 7th this season and I see no point talking the prospects up just so I can have a dig when we don't achieve
Catching Saints - impossible Catching Wigan or Cas - very difficult
Catching Warrington - realistic, especially if they lose to Wakey today. If they did, that would mean by merely matching their results for rest of season and beating them in Super 8s, we would probably finish above them.
That is entirely realistic but could really do with them losing today.
We were down on numbers and there was still not a lot in it last night. Its small margins. I don't think its season over, when we get troops back we'll be stronger. We are able to beat any team home or away when we are on it, and that's what they will have to be, and do, to get to Old Trafford. They've set the Grand final as their key objective. I think they'll treat it like knock out football and i'm looking forward to the ride. We just need to get our strongest side out there more and we'll have a real chance. Last nights loss made it harder, but its still do-able.

I would like to see Wigan’s first try again. Looked like he bounced it in touch from the East Stand ?
