By the looks of it:

Roberts steamrollered by Hall for first 2 tries.

Handley flies out off his line (surprise surprise) and leaves a massive gap for their 3rd.

Sloppy defending by Tindall for the 4th.

Who said putting wingers in the centres was a bad idea? *lol*

Lazy marker defense for their 5th.


Leeds try also dubious.

Yeah thought you were going to be nilled and you might well have been had there been a video ref. Leon Ruan looked to be in touch before he grounded the ball but nevertheless it was still a good effort from him.

Rovers 3rd try the main culprit from your point of view was your Number 10 (Zane Tetevano?) who was swatted off with ease by Jordan Abdull.

On the day you were ordinary if I'm being polite but of course no competition points were lost. We'll see in due course how significant this game was.

The only significant thing that could come from this game is if Sezer cops a ban, which he shouldn’t, there was nothing he could do, have you had work done on the pitch as it was cutting up horribly which is why Coote slipped.

There's been a lot of rain in Hull but at least the pitch wasn't covered in sand!

It might have been safer if it had been.

Cas beat giants by 40, I don't expect cas to finish above them.

I watched the highlights and Roberts didn't get run over twice unless they missed one? The one I did see he did a reasonable job I thought, against a big guy close to the line. He held him up long enough that if he'd got any help Hall wouldn't have scored. Tetevano was a bad miss leading to one try and some poor barge-over tries, but those should be fixable.
