Cryptic Craig at it again.

just watched the highlights on kr tv, and never noticed at the game how bad the decision to award the sharks first try was ,scored by the smurf , shocking decision , quinlan hits paeas arm trying to stop him grounding the ball and flies out loose carry or what. even paea shakes his head , and the obstruction was as bad as the sharks suffered at leeds ,shocking descisions continue in this and every game , the what goes round comes round bit wears thin when it costs teams points replies to -- sourgrapes.co.uk

You'll feel better after a good night's sleep.

You scored a try from a play the ball that was knocked on,and then the final pass been a mile forward. Minns was literally stood in front of Carney when he passed it.

Bugger,didn`t know we were a one man team.

To win with just 12 players shows that it was the best performance by any away side at your place this season.

6 successive derby defeats, losing after being 20 points up and now still getting beat despite having 73 minutes against 12 men. FC certainly have you in their pocket.

you do now

We will see,will be interesting to see how long Watts manages to stay on the field. Don`t get me wrong,great player, but too much of a loose cannon. Only time will tell if you are right.

like shauls pass to the dustman you mean. just thought id mention it on one post ,didn't mean it turning into a ten page thread like other teams do

Just watched it. Talanoa receives a blatant forward pass..ref gives it, Peae loses it, Houghton follows the drop..VR gives it, Quinlan scores..VR disallows it due to "apparant"obstruction that really never was, Shaw touches down..ref disallows it for a forward pass..funny how Talanoas wasn't forward...No wonder we get p****d off!
I am biased, I admit it, but watch it yourself and decide!
All we ask is a fair go.

The obstruction rule is just rubbish. For what it's worth, I would have given Quinlan's try. He runs through a different hole to where Lane was defending.
BUT, it's not the video ref, it's the rule that is the problem. At the time Quinlan receives the ball, Blair makes contact with Lane, and this happens directly in the path between Lane and Quinlan. By the rules of the game, this is obstruction.
I do think it was a harsh decision but by the rules of the game it was the correct one. The obstruction rule is just rubbish (As we found out against Leeds a few weeks ago but I bet no Rovers fans complained about that).

Not watched it back yet but thought 2 or 3 of there tries were dubious and couldn't see much wrong with our 2 disallowed scores?But in reality if you can't beat 12 it's irrelevant. I didn't want to see Blair in the half's but it looks the right call now? Marsh can cover half FB and at a push centre but excels in none of those.Lee was shocking.Salters misses on Tumorvave were the pivotal moments.How did they find space out wide with a man down? And we couldn't convert an overlap if Dot Cotton was defending.So much wrong today and could so easily have been different.Will be interesting how Sheens responds to that sack of bilge?

no they never, but it dosent make it right needs some looking at as it costs teams points as you found out happening to regularly to various teams

Defence today was shocking. They controlled the pace of the game each half getting long breaks regularly by just f@cking about. Fair play its what you should do but the officials should stop the more blatant time wasting. The game today was run by the video ref which was shocking. The official was a joke for both teams.
Marsh was an abomination who hid. Lee is what we ecpected....sh@te. Shocking last play options, poor kicking and abominable defending lost us the game. Well done to the 12 that won it.

Yeah agreed. As it stands it's just a huge cop out for a defending team. If they move towards adummy runner and let themselves get knocked over (Ablett is very well trained at this) you can guarantee it's gonna get pulled for obstruction. Even if, like today, the attacker goes through a completely different hole.
The rule is just a mess at the moment and it needs to be really looked at.

LOL, the average bump it up the middle team,with just 12 players seemed to find plenty of space in the corners on three occasions and when they couldn’t find it Carlos ripped you out a new one and sent the full back in.

The obstruction rule is complete rubbish given that RL is supposed to be a collision sport. The only saving grace is that it’s consistently applied (but only when the sky cameras are there).

With regards the first try of the game, at half time it was shown that the rovers players elbow clearly makes contact with the ball and hence it as play on.

Rovers biggest issue today was their last tackle play. The kicking was woeful. You had the possession and territory but were not good enough to use it.

Hull took their chances. With 13 men on the field, Hull win by 24+

Average poop, like the majority of SL, enjoy your cup final win, your lot certainly don’t sing and cheer like they did today if they beat any other team. But don’t forget to tell me it’s our cup final in the way out.

It was 7 months ago but yeah I am still enjoying it.

Enjoyed both of them,thanks all the same.

Hull may well be in decline, one of the reasons is Hull normally sign up any decent Rovers players, but this season....

I loved our Cup final wins!

2016



2017





OK. It's your Cup final.

IF Hull are average, just how bad, in your opinion are rovers then?

Cup finals.... great days out. I have seen Hull in six cup finals in the SL era, seen the, win three of these. Remind us how many cup finals rovers have bee next in, or more accurately how many points they have scored in those.? Sorry, pointless question, literally.

I'm finding it a bit embarrassing and cringy fans slagging Hull off when they've just beaten us with 12 men we have to except there way ahead of us at this time a bit like when we came up the first time but things change it will take a couple of seasons to get back on par with them yesterday's defeat was harder to take than the 20pt lead we blew because with a bit of composure and game management we should have won comfortably but in the end we looked like the team with 12 men

We are crap right now, end of. If that’s enough to give F.C. fans that arrogance that they’re the best team on the planet again having beat us, then good for them.
