Tried to post on here several times yesterday when the the topic was 'Catalans next OMG' with the page stuck at No.16. When was it changed?

Unable to post my prediction and an anecdote about my only visit to France to see Hull play Carcassonne back in 1956.

I will also say that it was a decent dig by the players tonight.

They're a well drilled team that will be in the mix when the trophies are handed out. We had a good dig at them tonight on their own muck.

We might actually have a team somewhere in there.

We're not gonna do anything this year. But there is some hope for the future.

You went to France in 1956 and you're still alive?

You must be in your 80s or 90s now.

Well done on your longevity. Long may it continue.

Thanks. I am currently halfway between an octogenarian and a nonogenarian.

Very proud of the effort and tenacity of the players. Only one major gripe is the dumb offloading inside our own half of Ligi Sao. Tony Smith has got to get a grip of this situation, it's killing the team's fuel in the tank, especially in defence.
Must applaud the improved performances of McIntosh and Lane, very impressed with all our new signings...

We just need to sort out the errors and discipline...it's those knock ons right after a try or on tackle 2/3 when we're in our own half that are costing us games. Not sure if its something that tony smith can coach out of the players though

Location: In the land of wishful thinking once more. Patiently waiting for our time to finally arrive.
Can only echo what most other posters have said. Good effort by all, the players dug in and the effort couldn't be faulted. They adapted well to the injury losses and the need to rearrange the team throughout the game.

We looked a good deal better in defeat than we did in victory last Sunday. Performance wise, possibly the best we've had since beating Saints and Wire last summer. There was signs of a cohesive team in there and, hopefully, something to build on in the coming weeks. At least we have some ray of optimism pushing through, although still a long way from where we would all like to be.

Onwards and upwards with fingers crossed.






I've been on the internet and have already got a sense of the fans' passion for the club. They are very fanatical - Peter Gentle 12th September 2011.

Money doesn't talk it swears, Obscenity who really cares, Propaganda all is phony.

I'm the son and heir of a shyness which is criminally vulgar.

Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way.

A man who lives in hell can still aspire to heaven.

Don’t know if anyone has said it but I’m going to pin my colours to the mast.

We win next week. Leigh without Asiata. Lam & Ipape.

We will see Sutty, Pele, Brown & Scott return into the reckoning. If we keep Bullock we should have a 17 TS will actually use. Imagine Pele targeting Ben Mac over and over

I'm wondering if we've forgot how to win games, feels like they're just playing to try be competitive at the moment but not actually consider how to win / how to close a game out once we're in front, needs a mindset change

Great effort from the lads. Just lacking that cutting edge which considering the players out is understandable. Gutted for Walker. But we have Hoy to step in. Sutcliffe in centre Mac on the wing. Big game against Leigh coming up.
