When we beat you in the semi final at Huddersfield some of your fans made a point of coming across and congratulating us on the win. They also wished us well in the final, but that didn't happen. Well played yesterday, a deserved win and lets hope that this really is "your year!" All the best.

Thank you, lads.

In semi defeats against you guys and your cross city rivals this decade, I’ve given well-wishes to both sets of fans for the final as I’ve walked past either set of fans heading back to my car.

I didn’t see any bother with Hull fans after the game on Saturday though. What happened?

The WG keep repeating that Hughes did a stint in the front row. I didn't pick up on it at the time but doesn't that make the whole Tasi issue even more confusing?

I would have thought that explained Tasi not coming on.

Hughes is a very fit player and great in defence. Murdoch-Masila had a really good game and put in some good minutes (a sign of things to come?) and Hughes is a better player than Tasi.

some idiots throwing plastic bottles or glasses when your guy scored and put the final nail in the coffin.

Did anyone else notice how Houghton drifted back interfering in our defensive line for the first Hull drive away from their line on more than one occasion? Something Hanley used to get away with.
Refs seem to have forgotten that attackers can be offside (I assume that rule hasn't changed?).

i think they got rid of it a while ago, i think it may have been catalan or some other expansion team got pinged for it a few times in a tv game or 2, in quick succession and it got removed in the off season.

i remember the players looking baffled at the ref when he penalised them.

Thanks FMC, it clearly passed me by!

Don't think i've seen BMM looking so fit for us, looks to have shifted a few stone and played more minutes than i've seen him play in a long time. Really hope this is him getting back to his best form Didn't realise Hughes played at Prop but he's a big lad and when he remembers that, he does put some solid runs in for us. Having ratchford back for us is an absolute blessing and a much needed boost to the Squad at the backend of the season.
Just a quick question as i missed the build up to the game and not heard anything since. But what's wrong with Charnley? Not in the team and was on crutches.

Said before that Hughes is my first name. He does the dirty stuff that goes unnoticed. Every successful team needs one if not two of them in the squad.

Not what you’re looking for from a quota player though (not Hughes obviously).
