Also met some very nice Wire fans in't boozer prior to the game.
We were much, much better defensively today, despite conceding six tries. Adam Walker is back to his best, Campese is a real proper general and the team looks really united. Kris Welham has rightly come in for severe criticism over the last couple of years but he was very good today, quality centre play gave Mantellato his tries. He unfortunately did still manage his trademark awful jump out of the line for one of the Wire scores, I didn't want to mention that but it has to be.
Boudebza also really impressed and with Horne again going well I can't see a way back in for Carlisle.
The game turned in the first half on Cockayne's terrible offload attempt that led to a try, Mantellato kicking the re start out on the full and another try.
We gave it a crack and it was an enjoyable game when I expected to get spanked.
Just a little mention for Larroyer, love this kid who seems to be really enjoying being at the club.

Good effort from your lads today. Nobody is going to go to Wire and have an easy game so full marks.

Yep we met some of your fans in the Bluebell and had a good natter good luck for the rest of the season.

Old school boozer that place. Popped in late last night and caught a live band rocking the place. However, if I ever hear [i"Hull is a $hithole, I wanna go home"[/i sung by Wire fans, I think my Irony-meter will explode.

Always got on well with KR fans in the past, a mutual hatred of FC is always a good starting point too.
