Fri 19th Apr: SL: St Helens v Hull FC KO 20:00 (Sky/SuperLeague+)

Please stick to discussing the match in question and do not accuse match officials of being biased or corrupt or you run the risk of being immediately banned from the forum.

Big bounce back win for the Red V

St Helens by a fair bit.

Saints by the bucket load 

Bookies giving us a 30+ start. Very generous given that we've only won by that margin twice since September 2022.

Think we'll win but won't be a blowout.

With Myler the Messiah at the helm the World is our oyster.

Be afraid Saints' fans, be very afraid...

Having said that, an adaptation of this scoreboard may be useful tonight :

Saints win by 22

Saints by 20.

Saints 12 up already

24-0. 

Commendable effort by probably the youngest Hull side I've ever seen and who have spent almost the entire first half defending.

Logan Moy outstanding.

Why are people posting score updates on a message board, are you aware the rest of the internet/TV coverage exists?

Why can't we get consistency from refs?

Ball clearly punched out on st's line..lost ball

Same on our line...stolen!

Even some of the pens/six agains i just can't see what we did wrong in the tackle.

It's so frustrating.

Logan Moy gets hit in the air while attempting to catch the ball but no penalty?

I thought that was both challenging for the ball.

Shouldn't Gardiner be sent off for that???

Just seen the final score.

Ouch.

I didn't mean that much. What is happening to Hull FC?

Looked like men against boys and when you consider the young kids littering the Hull team then that's why. Very pleased with their efforts tonight, some much more experienced Hull teams have been on the end of worse defeats. The penalty count must have ended up about 9-1 in favour of Saints and the first six again awarded to Hull was in the last ten minutes when the score was 52-0 so they were really up against it.

I just hope that the kids don't lose heart and keep turning up for each other, there is some real talent there.

I don't have Internet access at present and there's no terrestrial TV signal, either. 

I do feel sorry for the FC fans that made the long journey they are proper fans and perhaps a little crazy for making the trip. They are the worst side i have seen at Saints this season….after Saints. Next Thursday will be a different game, will wellens go back to the grind we’ll have to wait and see.
