We did not have our bigger lads from kick off run straight & hard into Snead, to hurt him & take some juice out of him ! We must get wiser & ruthless !!!!
My further thoughts are about our kicking game in the first half. Too many easy kicks that were straight to Hull players. They were returning them with ease into a broken defensive line, and were on the front foot from tackle 1.
Kicking it dead would probably be more effective. I know they get 7 tackles, but at least we can set our defensive line.
One big lad is Lyne. How can someone with such a physique lose the ball so easily and regularly in the tackle? I know we got back in the game but I thought his ball spill at 18-20 gave Hull the leg up they needed,
Do not think it is fair to blame Lyne for getting Hull back in the game .It was when the Hull player was allowed to run across the field going past at least 6 Wakefield players to set up the try in the second half .l was at that end and any of those 6 players could have made a attempted to tackel him .It was like watching the Chuckle Brothers from me to you ext
Fairly sure it was Josh Jones. The guy is a nightmare to tackle and has always made excellent metres after contact, which is presumably why Hull signed him from Salford ? Let's just admit that he is a quality player and would have no doubt done the same to any team last night
Well at least with people blaming the ref, it gives the 'we're not fit enough' excuse a break but I'm sure it'll be back, as popular as ever later in the season!
Hull fan in peace. Game of 2 halfs IMO. We should have put the game out of sight first half. You could easily have won the match though. Johnstone is one hell of a finisher. Both teams looked good in parts and awful in other times. Think you will do well this year.
