for once again coming over and applauding the FC fans. He gets the kitchen sink thrown at him by the faithful yet always acknowledges us both at Headingley and the KC. It doesn't go unnoticed Tom 👍

Never complain about getting old. Don't fear it, embrace it, because it's an honour denied to many 😢 RIP Kelli, thoughts to Danny, the boys and all family and friends 🤍
We are devastated to learn of the passing of Kelli Washbrook over the weekend - Kelli bravely fought a terminal brain tumour for nine months.
Our thoughts are with Danny, the Washbrook family, and all of Kelli's loved ones at this desperately sad time.
Rest In Peace, Kelli 🤍
Rugby league summed up in one photo. First thing I did at full time last night was to go to my Cas bestie and celebrate their win with her. I'd have been gutted to lose Cas away games so with nothing to play for, I'm over the moon we played our part in their survival!
Think those sueing the RFL need to sit and listen to Tony Bellew and his attitude with regards to his possible brain issues in the future. He has full acceptance that it was his choice to box and be in that situation, such a refreshing and mature attitude to have 👏🏻

To all my RL loving friends, and even if you aren't, turn on BBC 2 and watch the opening game for our
@EnglandWhRL
team. You won't regret, I promise! 🏈🏴🇦🇺
Jeez, the amount of melts on here moaning because we have to pay the huge amount of a fiver to watch an away cup game that in normal circumstances would cost up to 5 times that to watch, plus fuel, food, drink etc etc. Makes my friggin head hurt 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Josh Griffin has been charged with a Grade F offense for 'questioning the integrity of the referee' in Saturday's fixture against St Helens.
The RFL's Match Review Panel have referred the offence to a tribunal.
Danny Houghton will always be an FC legend, but chuff me, how much quicker is our attack when he's not playing?? Time for the next generation to come through I think
What can I say,

I'm interested to know where the right to appeal a failed appeal has come from tbh. I work in HR and if you lose your appeal that's it, end of process! It's ridiculous!!

Fantastic weight loss, well done!! It's amazing what you can achieve when you put your mind to it, I started losing weight in 2015 and have discovered a love of running. 47 years old and I'm the fittest I've ever been in my life.
We have just spent the best part of half an hour chatting to
@AndrewVossy
and if it hadn't have been so late, we'd still be there now. What a fabulous man, I'm feeling very very lucky this evening. 🐐
So, this Wheelchair Rugby League, bit of alright innit!! I fell in love with this game a few years ago and shout about it from the rooftops every chance I get. I beg everyone out there to get down to a live game, because it's phenomenal being part of the crowd!!
I've seen a lot of derogatory comments from FC fans about this, and I really don't get it. Rovers now have a commodity which they can use to gain valuable revenue, and they're their own bosses. Personally, I'd bloody kill to own our own ground and not be beholden to an SMC!
Jerry could've walked into any side whilst in his prime and won major trophies. Instead, he remained loyal to Huddersfield for 16 years and this is how he is repaid. Absolutely bloody shocking 🤬

The amount of Hull fans thinking Sutty is hard done to for this is astounding. He runs straight into him where he could've easily have avoided him. It was reckless and considering the situation we're in currently, bloody stupid!!
Genuinely gutted about this, I hope those players are bloody ashamed of themselves. Thank you Lee, I've criticised and applauded you in equal measure over the last 7 years, but you will always be the coach that brought us the holy grail and for that I'll be forever grateful 🏆🏆
@M_Shaw1
How about accepting that what Knowles did was a grubby, shitty thing and be honest enough to accept it on the chin and move on? To appeal it in the first place basically said that they condone his actions when it's very clear that it was a nasty thing to do. That's the issue!
I used to love Powell but he's turned into a reet whinging twat. We also played on Thursday. We also lost players including Shaul and Kelly. Put some faith in your young lads so you can rest first teamers, then you might not look out on your feet after 20 minutes.
Am I the only Hull fan who still sings "

Still smiling. Yes we've had a shit season but I'm FC 'til I die and I'll be freezing my breaticles off in February! Have to say though, no idea how many will join me because I've never known apathy like it. 🖤🤍
So bloody proud of those young lads tonight. What a shame that the shocking decision resulting in Nu Brown's red card is going to be the talking point.
I think it's absolutely abhorrent that

Just FYI, this has nothing to do with beliefs. It has everything to do with homophobia.
There are millions of people practicing their religion who are not homophobic.
Prejudice is prejudice and using religion, political beliefs or anything else to justify it is not ok.
So bloody proud of those

@AaronBower
I'm sorry Aaron but there has been a massive clusterfuck with the pricing for group games. These are the prices at the MKM for NZ v Jamaica. £55 for behind the sticks is absolutely bloody ridiculous. Tonight's attendance was not an isolated incident I'm afraid.
Another working RL season done. We're both so lucky to work within this great game of ours and to get the opportunities we do. Here's to the

Left OT at full time and were surrounded by Wigan fans. I'm sorry, but if Hull ever win the Grand Final, and yes, I know that's a dream right now, but if we ever do, it's going to take a crow bar to get me out of that place just like it did at Wembley in '16. I just don't get it!
I know I shouldn't, but I really love this guy! His passion for everything rugby league is so infectious and those Tonga games will remain very much the highlights of the sporting part of our holiday ❤️❤️

I'll tell you what I am letting sink in, the fact that you think it's acceptable to call a drink after a date rape drug. This isn't about being a snowflake, this about being aware of the wider world and the affect Rohypnol has had on lives in a very negative way. Shocking.
Rovers have more pride and passion in their little fingers than we have in our whole bodies. Good luck selling season passes

I think all Hull fans need to remember that when we didn't think Josh was coming back after the close season we were gutted. Whatever has happened, has happened, but I'll still be grateful for some great performances last season and wish Josh all the best in the future 🖤🤍🖤🤍

People are programmed to hate the referee, and especially Kendall, but do you know what, we've played some really dumb rugby today and have never actually been in the game. Take the 🖤🤍 glasses off boo boys, we've got a long way before we can compete anywhere near the top six.

There's been a lot of shit thrown at Cas this afternoon, but at the end of the day, they've done everything they can to ensure their Wembley team stay Covid free and that there's no disruption to the Final next week. All teams field weaker sides before a final, it's nothing new!
Why are people too friggin' stupid to realise that tonight's game between Wigan and Leeds was scheduled 2 months before the World Cup groups were even drawn. The RFL didn't deliberately clash the games, it was simply one of those things so get a fecking grip!!!! 🙈🙈🙈
I love this shirt! It's not either of the main shirts and will be worn only a few times so seriously, what is the point of all the moaning?? There's enough to worry about right now without griping about something that is simply a bit of bright fun in these dark days!
Not a bad knock out for the

lift the coveted Challenge Cup at Wembley yet we've been lucky enough to see it twice in 12 months. For that I will be forever grateful to those boys that will always be worshipped amongst the faithful 🖤
@AndreSavelio
I said at the time that you have absolutely no reason to lie about something so big, I just hope the RFL deal with this swiftly and that more importantly, you're okay 🖤🤍
I really really hope that this World Cup has ended the days of the wheelchair finals being played infront of a couple of hundred fans. I've loved this fabulous version of our game for years and hopefully next season the CC and GF will be sell outs, regardless of the finalists!!

I don't expect to win every game, but I do expect the team to give their all for the badge. Today we got both and it's about bloody time. Davy Litten was outstanding and Jake gave us the direction much missed over the last couple of weeks. Time for a rest before playing Wigan 🍻

Initial contact with ball and chest??? His arm never sees the ball and chest because the ball's in his other bloody arm!!! No wonder fans have had enough 🤬
So pleased for John Kear, the Challenge Cup King 🤴🤴🤴
A very magnanimous speech from Jordan Lilley 👍🏻
Finally, the losing speech by Agar looks bloody familiar doesn't it!! 😂
Whilst the 2 points are important, the most important thing I've witnessed this afternoon was the pride in the shirt. The effort was outstanding and we desperately need to keep that up going into next week's game against a team that recently has pummelled us on a regular basis!!
Gutted to hear of the passing of

Zak Hardaker proclaims himself to be Super League's best full-back after stunning start to the season.
This is what's wrong with the game. People are so quick to focus on one side of the coin instead of focussing on the 31,555 fans that are there. A Super League record and fantastic crowd. Well done

Wellens not rotating his squad messed up big time, they looked knackered. Tony said from the get go that he was going to rest a few and it did absolute wonders for us. How good is it seeing us playing as a team and not a bunch of individuals, regardless of who's on the pitch!🖤🤍
Our problem is we're missing a tough game. We've had an easy ride all the way through and it shows massively today. This is the kind of game Sneyd excels in, massive boo-boo leaving him out IMO
