Ligi not in the team, big blow

Yes that’s a blow but a chance for Brown. Shame Staveley injured think he’d been a big plus on the bench over Joey.
Wonder what kind of performance we will get from Dwyer today.

Rest is usual nonsense.

Test our mentality against a 2nd bottom team you for real ?

How's that nonsense ? If We lose to saints and Wigan we won't reach the play offs

Lovely.

Blimey bit of a crapathon.

its not a good game but that was a nice move from the set scrum wide instead of in the middle of the park for McIntosh to score
Nice to see something different

Got to be satisfied with that result. Salford and Leeds losing as well.

Good result in the end.
A bit of an odd game really, comfortable winners without ever really feeling like we got going.
We defended well on the whole though, had to soak up a lot at times.
I hope whoever the Wakey player was that went off was OK too.

Getting the 2 points was the main thing but nice to run up some points while doing so. Could have done to have gone straight into a game next week in my opinion with the momentum of a good win. Weeks off done always help.

It's strange as fans that we too have been mentally conditioned.
Never knowing what to expect, which Hull team is going to turn up.
Compete against the big teams and capitulate against the weaker ones.

This is a game on paper I'd expect to win but the reality is I'm not confident.
We definitely need to win to keep our slim play off hopes alive but who knows what we'll get today.
I'll go with optimism as usual but similar to last game at Huddersfield, I will not be shocked if we get beat.
The player's mindset will determine this one and hopefully after last week they want to put a few wrongs, right .

I'm never confident but that scoreline exceeded my expectations.

A nice weekend. All around us got beat, bar Huddersfield. But we have them to play on our muck.

Next game is probably our toughest game left, on paper. If we can get a surprise victory there, then it's game on.
