Well he's used his EGP in the first game of the season.
Time to move on, what's done is done.

Well la di da di da, last time I checked this was the Wakefield forum not the god fearing black and white forum.

So a Hull fan is not allowed to comment on a Hull player then.

Hull fans are more than welcome. Mostly a good lot and probably the best off season of all the forums.

Away fans are always welcome, as long as they respect the fact it is a Wakefield forum and not to troll.

I quite like Hull, they are my second team. I could not get to the match, unfortunately but really guys it's time to move on. From what I've read and heard there was nothing between the teams and we could have won. Well, that's a bloody improvement from last season then!
Our focus now is what's to come not what's gone.

Not according to the stats, Hull 30 tackle busts (the highest this week) Trin 10 (the lowest), what constitutes a tackle bust cos I didn't see very much between the teams.

Quoting the 18th man Twitter page here
"Tackle bursts is another good stat, not only does it show you who’s attacking but how easy they were finding to break through another team’s defense. The most tackle bursts was a tie between Leeds Rhinos and Hull FC with 30, showing that the Saints and Wakefield defense was struggling which also echo’s the above number of tackles made for Saints. 30 wasn’t over the top with 4 other clubs in the high 20’s. The lowest tackle burst was Wakefield Trinity with just 10 suggesting that match was an 80 minute struggle to bring about a result in horrible conditions"

Shows how much of a useless stat it is when they say it showed the Saints and Wakey defenses were struggling despite the fact they conceded a combined total of two tries between them.

You won't get over it? You would love it you miserable snout.
Also - surely it was BJB at fault to cost us the points, not the ref?

Re: Albert Kelly : Wed Feb 15, 2017 9:26 am  

Well the ref missed two clear high shots that led to us being deprived of two players. Unless of course he thinks that the Wakefield players knocked themselves out on the floor. So that probably had some bearing on the outcome.....not to say we would have won had those decisions been given.
