Absolutely bob on. The players gave their all but it just didn't come off. If we had sneaked a win no one would be mentioning a lack of desire!

not really, rub of the green is just the same as saying if the ball bounced kindly we would he won! same thing!

Ok my point IF that's IF Monaghan catches it and scores, does that mean Hull then didn't want it more, and that our players DID?

People say Hull wanted it more, that's the statement i'm saying is rubbish, i'm not debating moments in the game.

Monaghan scoring means we tried and fought well.
Monaghan NOT scoring means we didn't try as hard and weren't hungry.

So that last second in the game decides the effort for the other 79 mins and 59 secs? NO!
It would have decided the result but certainly not the effort by either team.

I'm with Yed on this one

I get totally ####ed off with these "Americanisation" and "buzzquotes" coming into our sports

"THEY WANTED IT MORE" Try telling that to Adrian Morley and Gareth Carvell, who'll (more than likely, sorry any Salford and Bradford fans), who'll never walk out at Wembley again. Or Currie or Grix, who've never played there (yet).

We even have it from our "expert analysists" on the telly
Robbie Hunter Paul "Geez, the Hull guys are pumped for this one".....so our's weren't, eh?

NO, THE HULL PLAYERS DIDN'T WANT IT MORE
THE HULL PLAYERS WERE BETTER IN SCORING MORE POINTS, AND NOT MAKING MORE MISTAKES THAN US.

Putting it simply (and not taking too much away from Hull), we were masters of our own downfall. SIMPLE.

Dust yourselves down Wire.
When it's CC Final week, HAVE A WEEK OFF (we've not had many weeks off in the last few years). RELAX, DON'T OVERTRAIN.

We need a fully prepared squad for the play-offs.

I fully expect Mr Smith to have us fully prepared for a Grand Final. WE DON'T NEED A DAMP SQUIB END TO OUR SEASON.

You cant play this sport half d. You'll get found out or injured or both, it requires 100% commitment. We wanted it, you wanted it, we played better. Fantastic game and a great advert.

Absolutely on the nail
