M'au failed his HIA so will not play next week.

Would be helpful if we could get Andre the Giant, some game time to make up for the loss of, The Terminator.

A VERY lucky win tonight, if Wakefield had kicked their goals we were beaten, they didn't, we weren't. We have capitulated twice in two games, that isn't good, but we won.

Glad for the two points, but for the 4th game on the trot a really poor 2nd half (or at least a poor spell,l. Hopefully this win will give the players some confidence.

Second best attack in the league but the third worst defence.

8 of the other 11 teams have played less games than us so not really a reasonable comparison

Just got back in from Wakey and got to say we got out of jail tonight and were lucky. Yet again we get into a decent lead and controlled the game in the 1st half other than the first 5 mins. Then the 2nd half we just didn’t come out switched on again. Concerned that Radford seemed to think it was a good performance and Wakefield not getting credit for being a very good side. As good as Wakey were in 2nd half we were once again pretty poor and let them back into the game with errors being compounded by penalties. Also our inability to stop them off loading was almost criminal.

Why can’t we just keep a lead in the 2nd half or kill off the opposition. It’s just not good enough, however at least we regrouped and played the first set well in golden point to give Sneyd the opportunity to win it.
A win is a win but it just papers over the cracks as we were lucky in the end not to lose after the continued inability to play for 80.

Thought Cator went well on his debut.

"Lee Radford says Marc Sneyd played tonight's game while waiting for a phone call from the hospital where his wife is expecting their second child. Fortunately for @hullfcofficial the call never came and Sneyd was able to kick the drop goal that secured a 27-26 golden point win"

Game day. Big game for us. Think it will be close but predicting a narrow win. Think the players and fans need a win to kick start our season. Am of to this one so fingers crossed it's a happy trip. COYH

A good prediction and trust you enjoyed the game. Interesting 3 matches played tonight- I followed the Hull game watching the live TV match at Warrington.

3 matches tonight decided by a total of only 4 points with 2 drop goal wins. Must be a Super League record!
