Wow. Followed Hull for a long time but don't post much. But have to say seriously worried about a performance like that

I accept any team can have an off day but total lack of creativity in attack (did anyone make a break tonight?) and poor, poor defence. Plain stupid decisions by experienced players.

Totally anonymous display and can't use injuries as excuse this season

Don't know if the players believe their own hype but Jesus that was woeful against a poor team that we made look good

Afraid another long season coming again and not at all optimistic this season will be different to last 2

I think Agar, who I think is a very personable guy just isnt upto the job as coach. His motivational and tactical skills were evident today. As individuals the team has the experience and ability to do much better.

On the positive side has helped me decide whether I should keep Sky sports to watch the RL this season - will keep up on the Radio when I can.

And before anyone bleats about me not being there, I have followed FC for a very long time and live a long way way from home now. Family and finances dictate priorities and based on a passionless display like that it'll be some time before I attend again.

Sorry Hull, not good enough. Not by a long way

Quite how we let Broughton score 2 tries with defenders all over him I do not know. In fact I despair.

that was shocking defense. i dont care if your greg inglis. those 2 tries should not have been scored

Phil Gould once said.

"The way you play, reflects your Coach's personality"

Says it all.

Whats the bets Agar says we had a really good week of training and just need to convert it to game day!!!

He is making a very good team on paper very very average!!

I think the players thought all they had to do was get off the coach and turn up and watch salford capitulate,Agar had better get the team sorted out for good friday or Agar will feel the full wrath of the fans

Concur entirely with the OP. Poor is too positive a word to describe that display

Spot on!

Embarrassing, frustrating and seen it all before, tonight was really depressing

It was the sort of defending I've come to expect to see from Salford rather than other teams. Took me a couple of seconds to actually start celebrating the tries because I was unsure as to how you hadn't actually managed to stop him from scoring them both.

My thoughts entirely cazz

well he won't on friday as there won't be many hull fans there, the backlash will come on monday against warrington if we underperform again

Broughton must've thought it was his birthday the way he was allowed to stroll in for his tries. Discipline was also poor, so much cheap possession conceded from stupid penalties. Young Lyne will no doubt be a great player but totally out of his depth and not helped by those along side him out there tonight.

if only everyone had the guts that Hame showed tonight, yes he made a mistake or two but worked his guts out trying to get us going forwards

Really, he scored a good try but other than that I thought he was as ordinary as everyone else out there.

This might seem bizarre but I'm pleased at the replies to the OP. Why? Because too many times supporters want to paper over the cracks ans carry on the way we are/were & not criticise?

Let's just say that after the hundred and odd years I've been watching Hull, tonight's performace was inept to say the least.

World class players playing like e - its not good enough. I've been on here sticking up for the coaching stafff but not any more - Tonight we were e, no two ways about it. Disgusted - Salford are the worst team I have seen this season (Sorry,but IMO its true) and we were out played and out thought by a team that wanted it more.

Absolutely gutted.

Couldn't agree more, we were shocking right across the park, I am so dissapointed it's untrue. So far this season I have not mentioned the coach but I have to say after two years of watching the same performances and the week before reading the quotes of we wont be complacent, well its just getting a little too much.

We brought in World Class players now we need someone who is going to make them play like it, week in week out. Sorry richard I really do like you but your team sucked tonight for the 2nd time against opposition we should have beated easily.

If only he would learn to keep his cakehole shut.

And trying to pass the ball [ithrough[/i an opposition player?!

Not many posts pointing fingers at Reece Lyne but he was clearly not ready for Super League. Both the Broughton tries and the first Kirkpatrick try and the high kick dropped were down to him. Craig Hall should have played or Whiting on the wing with Hall in the centre. By playing a 17 year old you are telling the opposition we are over confident. Fitzgibbon was awful for the first time and Long is not leading. We are a mid table team at best and I believe we are a better team in bad conditions due to our big pack and lack of pace and creativity. How can we beat Saints, Huddersfield and Bradford and lose to Salford ? As much as I think Agar has assembled a pretty decent team capable of playing well something is amiss with tactics and motivation

i think that's another interesting point, last night was the best conditions we've played in this year, and it suited the opposition more than us.

Scary thought isn't it

Seemingly because they were capable of passing the ball with some speed and accuracy.
