| Quote Iain="Iain"Was Owen injured or dropped? Very harsh of dropped as Godwin looked lacking in sharpness.
The ref was dreadful, but our defence for the last two tries was even worse. We should have won that game comfortably but failed to build on any position that we got - let's hope we don't have to play in rain again.'"
Ive heard OWEN was dropped for this game to make way for Godwin....VERY harsh considering the way he has played and his contribution...4 tries, numerous breaks, good defence.
I hope this kid does'nt beat himself up about his exclusion I am sure he will be back soon.
Godwin...VERY average on yesterdays performance, one scoot from acting half, limited defensive qualities especially when there prop ran right over him to score under the sticks...worthy of a recall ?? |

I would be very dissapointed if Owen was dropped. He has been one of the bright sparks this season, and i feel he was just what was needed yesterday. His runs from dummy half was just what was needed to get that game going yesterday, and his tackling this season has been superb. Why was Longy up on the gantry instead of on the touchline ????

| Quote red13pjb="red13pjb"Who were the only team to make a line break from their own half yesterday? Who was the only team to score a try by throwing a long pass to the winger? HKR scored three tries, one was a mile offside at the kick and two were barge overs from ten yards out against a tiring defence and yet we were clueless apparently. The game was played in incessant rain with a ball like a piece of soap, of course the lads didn't throw it around like they have at other times.
As for the penalties, are wer the only team not square.....or offside.......or holding down? Dobson should have been binned in the first half for holding down Gleeson after our 4th clean break from our own half (btw he would therefore have been off when he made the kick for their first try). The penalty that breaks the game however is the one for a ball steal when Wellham just dropped it. They scored from that penalty...game over!!!
I am not claiming that we are not guilty but we got pulled 8 times for not square against Wigan.......on good friday I watched Saints get away with it time and again against the same opposition.....why? Because they are one of the big 4 & must not be penalised especially on big games as it spoils the flow of the game doesn't it.
Y we were poor compared to other games this year but a like perspective needed!
Also the crowd, people at the club are not happy about the crowds being published....they are certain there are more in the ground than is being announced. My sister works in the ticket office and is gobsmacked at some of the figures when they come out (particularly the Leeds and Wigan games). Yesterday, there was a very poor following from hill billy land, no more than 700 in my estimation. So if the published figure is correct that means 4300 reds fans on a horrible cold wet bank holiday. The negativity of some fans is more damaging than the performances at times and now is not the time. If we got behind them more instead of slagging them off perhaps we can lift them a bit. We need to pull together.'"
If 700 is a poor following, please give me a word in advance to describe the following you will bring to Craven Park later in the season. Perhaps pathetic will suffice?
There is no way on earth there was 5,000 people in that ground yesterday. As I was stood with the "hill billy's" I am not best placed to estimate our following, but the 3 other sides of the stadium looked about 3,000 tops. It's a shame, but the logistics of your ground are perhaps not doing you any favours, its a to get to. |

considering it was our 2nd away game in 4 days 700 is a pretty good following and seen as you only took half that to huddersfield and you will bring your usual 50 to our ground from the salford slums you cant really comment can you  |

That might work as an insult if none of us had ever been to East Hull amd experienced it first hand.
"Hill billys", "slums", can we cut out the pointless insults and just discuss the match and everything around it in a sensible manner for once?
As it stands I reckon KR had more than 700 there, but I'm still finding it hard to judge a crowd at the new place. The attendance announced sounds about right to me.
Less said about the game the better, both sides were equally awful but as we don't have any real pace or power going forward we ended up suffering for it. |

Perhaps if you had a stadium worth going to with a proper roof and facilities for away support we would. Take into account the scum of yours who.always try starting fights then is it any wonder we take so few to your hole |

Great observation. Doesn't detract from having to shell out £23 a ticket on Friday ,followed by £20 on Monday, with no home game. It's been an expensive Easter for me & many other hill billies, I might have to sell a kidney if we have a Challenge Cup run........ |

I'm sorry we can't offer top class accomodation at this stage, but I'm sure you understand these things take time, given your own club's recent experiences. In 2013, our new North Stand will open, I look forward to it welcoming hoardes from your club. |

Can anyone explain why the RFL don't take the radical decision of playing one home, one away, one home, one away - think you get the drift. |
