Decent performance in the conditions. Handley did well at fullback but unsurprisingly the attack stuttered with all the positional changes and poor weather.
Highlights were another impressive stint from Lisone who is starting to look like the impact prop we hoped ge would be. Holroyd again was excellent and with Oledski getting back to fitness we have some real firepower up front.

Some thoughts.

Lisone was excellent, he clearly just needed some time to get up to speed.

Austin is also playing himself into another contract, he’s been excellent this year.

Handley looks really quite comfortable at full back.

Tommy Holroyd deserves his England call up, chuffed to buts for him after a torrid couple of years.

I am starting to see glimpses of the team RS wants us to be and it’s good.

Above average without being spectacular and doing the basics right is all you can ask in the conditions.
Not really tested by a poor FC team.
A decent squad coming together with one or two players looking over their shoulder which isn`t a bad thing.

Just over 12k

Hull hardly brought any, don’t blame them

I came to the game in Round 2 - but was not going to attend this one given our form and the lack of interest from our senior players.

Out of interest, did anyone perform well? Heard decent reports back on how Litten went at full back, but when a 19 year old has got MOM for us twice in his 5/6 games he has played for the club, that says a lot about the rest!

He went very well, caused us a few problems with his kicking. Plenty of energy as well. Easily your best performer on the night.

Litten was easily Hull's best player, I honestly don't remember anyone else standing out, I usually like watching Fish play but didn't really notice him. Dwyer was terrible and Houghton looks like he's gone one or two seasons too far.

Freudian slip, surely. It must be his mullet.

I'll get my coat.
