Indeed.
My only concern being, that we tend to reserve performances like this for away games. Good job we got four of 'em.

Well what a win ,at one point I thought I don't care if we don't go on to get the win the enthusiasm and effort shown was the best shown all season that's all we ask for,the touch rugby shackles off rugby paid off ,we must of completed more offloads than all season put together ,then we get the win was worth the diversion on the way home well done all come on you ull!

So we dont produce youngsters eh!!!!
I think the ones that played last night have proved we have kids with plenty of potential.
Perhaps if we gave odd ones a chance now and then they may develop instead of putting them in as a last resort but what the hell do we supporters know.

really looking forward to the Leeds game on Friday, after last nights game confidence must be high in the squad.

An interesting comment and makes me remember a conversation I had before the Wigan under 19's game with a senior member of our Coaching staff who unofficially lamented the demise of our Under 19's and the new Academy stuff. His comment was that Wigan and Leeds have had around 8 years at the level we are at to hone their operation while we have had just two years at Bishop Burton. He said there are already signs of some great talent emerging, as good as we have produced for years (his words not mine) but its too early to judge the set up now. I know that our youngsters are supposedly ring fenced for 5 years or so but I get his point and we had some fine young players on show last night the for me the new system simply hasn't been given the chance!

Great result last night. Well done FC and Radford. Lets hope Naughton keeps his place now as he deserves it

On a side note how can HDM give lineham the same rating as Watts and higher than Abdull and paea ?

Them players ratings are a bit daft. If Hull/Rovers win all the players just get 7s and 8s. If they lose its 5s and 6s.

When Rovers won the semi I seem to think quite a few players got 10s. While there may have been more pressure on that game, we have seen much better individual performances throughout the season only get marked as 8s.

Just something to fill the page with.

I think the ratings are about right, I'd drop Sa to a 5 and Lineham to a 7.

That's more like it Dave.

Great win, is this the first time in our history, I wonder, that we've won twice in a season at St Helens?

This is all we can ask of the team in the remaining games, to go out and compete. We won't make the 4, we all know that, but as long as they give it a go and don't simply put their feet up then there can't be too many complaints on here (well not too many, this is Fc after all)

I never said we didn't need Pryce, I said I would have preferred to give Adbul a chance if you had bothered to read properly, and I have said since some months back that Pryce has performed better than I expected.
I thought I said Howarth was a wasted signing (which proved correct) but in any case we had ample cover in all the positions Naughton played so my poitnt was valid!
At the time of signing Naughton we had effectively three first team wingers (Lineham, Talanoa, Micheals), we also had Lancaster, who knew that Lineham was going to be sold and Talanoa/Micheals have to cover Sa and Yeaman in the centres. We also had Logan and with Shaul & Rankin scrapping for the FB role there was no place for Naughton hence his 7 games all season.
It's all well and good saying stuff in hindsight but who was to know that both Yeaman and Sa would have such poor seasons, clearly the coach didn't because why retain/play them at almost every opportunity until it was too late.
I'm sure you are 100% correct in everything you say but I wouldn't want to trawl through all the random total bollox that you mostly spout to check so well done to you.

Really?

He shoots, he scores!

Its like shelling peas!!

Quite. Bumpy is a very large fish in a very small barrel.

Still nicely done though.

He'll be back spouting more bollox before we know it.
His inflated opinion of himself makes it an absolute certainty.
Probably composing another masterpiece of a petition as I type.

Petition lol I forgot that one ha ha

Way too easy. .your reaction kind of proves my point.

BOOM!!

Someone's bumpy pants are ablaze

well done stalker, pretty sad & funny you think so much of me to trawl through my posts so thanks for the reminder, as I said some months back I was wrong about Pryce.
Luckily I'm not a sheeple and am able to form an opinion without the need of approval unlike yourself and others on here, I was right about Naughton in that we didn't need him when we signed him nor Howarth. I'm not wrong about Radford holding us back either, the last two seasons have shown conclusively we have gone backwards from where we were under Gentle but you and others can't just accept it even though we have a superior squad on paper and another couple more years of the youth developing.
It is like shelling peas aint it


And Staffs, have you signed my petition yet, you seem awfully interested in it, there's nothing untrue about anything I said but keep beleiving we will break into the big time with Radford at the helm

You sir are so consumed about the 'turnip' failing, that it pervades nearly every post you care to enlighten us with. even to the detriment of the team you allegedly support.
You've gone as far as openly admitting it.
Now stop being delusional, give yourself a shake down. man up, and we can all start playing nicely again.

Good job given that your petition was so badly supported. Wasn't is under 1% of our average gate? That's less than the opposition to Kim Jong-un.

I think hulls away form as been fairly good all season.win or lose we have been competitive in every game.wakefield was poor admittedly but.even the top 3 have had their poor games away.our home form however has been a different kettle of fish.the only 2 real hammerings we have had were at home.even the victories haven't been convincing..

Having watched this game back, thought Watts, Westerman and Mini were absolutely excellent. To win games like that missing the likes of Ellis and Pryce and down on interchanges you need your big guns to deliver. They definitely did.
