For what it's worth I agree with your points Keith. Unfortunately some Hull fans (and vice versa) can only reply to well constructed criticism with insults or pointless belittling of other said team. We were shocking last night and epitomised every thing we know is wrong. So far only beaten bottom 3 teams but hope last night was merely a blip on our road to recovery.

Got to agree there Jake,woeful performance. All that was missing last night was red noses.

Hull will give us a tough game but the key is to silence their fans in the Threepenny Stand.We have to do this because if we do'nt they will get behind their side and lift them in a way you've never seen,heard or witnessed before.

We got our recruitment wrong and the best we can hope for is 5th. Wakefield no better then us just got it right tonight and didn't let us play to our speed. Fair play to them, bad for them is the inconsistent form they have. Cas are the best of the rest but think they won't get over the line without Gale.
People were saying Saints were light years ahead last season yet won nothing didn’t even make a final Warrington have been beaten by Catalans who in turn got absolutely hammered by a team everyone said would struggle I don’t think anyone is light years ahead of anyone some of the results so far have been bizarre

I'm sick of seeing wingers and centres all over the place creating easy tries for the opposition. Do we actually practice defensive structures? griffin was terrible defensively.
I said last week our defence against leeds was poor but no one cared as we had a good 20 minute attacking spell. I said we'd only beaten the 3 worst teams in the comp but was told it wasn't an indicator of how good we are. Forwards simply not good enough, We need some size if we are to compete. We'll finish somewhere 6th to 10th this year
Think we all care Jake but we beat Leeds, and as you said we were missing to many props against Wakey, Tag not many minutes for him, hope Bowden Green and Paea puts this right. Our defence was average last night Griffin especially, but even Carlos who was probably the best player on the field for us, missed crucial tackles, and if we miss tackles against a quicker team, we know the outcome.
We were schooled by big Dave last night and as he grinned when we welcomed him with a chorus of “you fat b@@@@@d” I kind of feared the worst.
hopefully we get Bowden green paea back soon, bit of grunt there, throw in savelio and we should match teams more down the middle, thought our back 3 looked off last night,westy didn't look 100%, once your pack is beaten you knackered, if somebody had said you win 3 out of 4 against wigan leeds hudds wakey I would have taken it, but then am a half full guy ha ha

What last night showed is our front row is weak.

What does losing 13 games in a row have to do with anything when 8 of those defeats were in a competition that we did not take part in? Calling a view drivel says more about you than about my previous post. My view may be different to yours but you can only resort to insults. If the defeat does not affect you why are you getting so uptight? You are a strange supporter if your club is quite heavily defeated, apparently does not play well and you are not really affected.
Its not your view though is it Keith? Your just fishing and nothing more, thats why your post gets no respect. I can also call things irrelevant too without coming up with constructive points, I'd rather contribute though.
I'm not uptight at all, im not a strange supporter either they is many things in life which wind me up but my team losing is not one of them. I'm more concerned about the welfare of my daughter or paying my mortgage. There is more to life then Rugby League.

Sorry I questioned your previous posts. I did not realise you are a mind reader and really know what other people are thinking and the reasons for their actions. You daughter is very lucky to have you for a dad. I’ll condider getting your insight before posting. I want to know if what I’m saying is what I really think or whether I’m just fishing.
Incidentally loving your daughter and paying your mortgage does not exclude you from being sad/angry or any other feeling when your team loses. It’s very normal to have a reaction to a result whether good of bad.
