00:00with the fans now hasn't he uh left the club last week tremendous servant here at craven park and
00:06he's toughing it out with everyone else in the stand right we're about to get underway then
00:10zach hardacre and hull will get his underway look at this kick this is going to be dealt with and
00:16it's knocked on error right from the kickoff and hardacre's kick causing all sorts of problems and
00:22look again at the reaction from the whole fc players a bit of a poor start there for the
00:27robins yeah significantly all the momentum was with all fc at the back end of that half and then
00:32the half time hooter goes and john asiata gathers his troops around him and lays down the riot act
00:38and then they started as they mean to go on they forced an error it was a really difficult kick
00:43it
00:43drew the fullback forward as a fullback if you've got to cover ground and you've got to keep your
00:48eyes on the ball that's it it does put doubt in your mind i know it wasn't by design but
00:53it's what
00:53the wind has done and an early opportunity here for the black and whites yeah it is ball now works
00:59its way across hardacre will find caesar oh taken off his feet by hicku
01:09here's lytton the black and whites hoping to level up here
01:16five away and a big chance asiata remember hull going into the teeth of this strong wind balls come
01:25free and an error from john asiata well that was two really good defensive contributions first of all
01:32hicku shutting down caesar and then elliot mincella coming in third man heavy heavy on asiata and dislodged the
01:41ball yeah this is a a couple of those defensive contributions it's just mincella over the top
01:46and there's an arm in there isn't it there is an arm in there from hadley yeah
01:54would have been interesting
02:00all right there are a piece to start off the second half let's crack on with it from here
02:11here's lewis will send it high way back moy collects it on the full he'll head infield he's
02:18quick across the ground but he can't get past bachelor who makes the tackle
02:28carl lawton into the action back after his ban he's on for jez lytton
02:34here's davy lytton another strong carry from him
02:42here's asiata asiata over halfway
02:51caesar finds lasoni who gets rid of lewis lewis will come back and have another go
02:57four of them involved and eventually succumbs
03:04sonny heavily involved caesar kicks high the wind will hold it up broadbent's gonna do well to get to
03:11that that's a brilliant catch brave so brave for exactly the same reason that i just said
03:17you know a fullback has to has to come forward to a ball with a chasing a kick chase on
03:22that is really
03:24brave really committed from broadbent and it's just on his fingertips isn't it under all sorts of
03:30pressure from james bell you mentioned he's coming forward the ball there was going away from him as
03:35well he's done well he's had a game so far hasn't he broadbent he's been involved in everything good
03:40the robins have done both sides of the ball here is hadley finds luckily
03:47he's going to be tackled
03:54here now is lewis just stepped out of the 40 end over end kick oh boy he makes that look
04:00comfortable
04:01brings it back tough day for the fullbacks they're both doing well now there's a counter romano
04:07trying to get the big fend on burgess but good work from hull i like it like it not afraid
04:13to play
04:14confidence in one another
04:22burgess hardacre takes the meters on offer hits them up towards halfway
04:29cussed finds john asiata finds caesar now they've got numbers now they get it away to lytton
04:35martin was screaming for it boy gets it and he's tackled instantly good defense from the robins
04:45fancies another run he's upended and tackled last one all here now to caesar he's just going to
04:52stand it up he's going to invite broadbent to collect this as well ball
04:57batted back but i think eventually knocked on by lewis martin and that will be the handover
05:02yeah a couple of arms reached out for possession there and yeah you're right handover and again
05:09it's you know it's it's putting the fullback in an awkward position this time it does come off the
05:13back of martin before it goes into the fullback davis now first carry and hull fc have done a good
05:19job
05:19they're opening four or five minutes this half one thing is notable they have been a lot cleaner in
05:24terms of discipline haven't they they have well you mentioned as they were in a huddle at the end
05:29of the first half john asiata was getting stuck into his side wasn't he well i mean you know the
05:35fight
05:35probably the theme would have been listen we're four points adrift and we've been awful
05:38and now they forced a mistake look at the black and white celebrate again in as one
05:46geez we've got a game bubbling on here yeah hadley with the error
05:51oh now they are going to challenge this for the first time today we head up to the video referee
06:02it's kate coast isn't it who's i think the initial contact has dislodged but it's what happens after that
06:14okay we have a captain's challenge all kr they're challenging the ruling of a knock-on
06:18so keep going on this angle so there's two players there's more than one player in the tackle
06:24it's a report that ball do you have any other angles that you can show me please
06:30okay so hadley in possession
06:35so cust wraps the arm there and the ball appears to come loose do you have any other angles just
06:42to
06:42confirm he does go to the ball initially but then changes to the arm he's allowed to wrap the ball
06:53yeah and then he wraps the arm just go back to the uh previous angle please
06:59okay slow on this slow on this so you see he wraps the ball there
07:02the ball's still in handley's possession slow slow slow
07:07he then changes to wrapping the arm there's no clear intent to steal
07:17keep going keep going keep going
07:21and then the ball just comes out as part of the mechanics of the tackle
07:25thank you i've made my decision
07:28well liam rush has had a look at that it looked like it it came out fairly and and that's
07:34eventually what liam rush has decided as well yeah no correct decision
07:40and the robins burn their challenge fairly early on in this second half hadley
07:47was responsible for keeping possession the black and white's defense that have done enough and
07:54liam rush said you can leverage an arm you can't leverage the ball
07:58saw willie peters at 10 nil they had a couple of forays into the 20 they didn't get to the
08:03end of
08:04the set sir robbins and you wonder that inability to get the third try
08:09is it going to bite them on the back side because here come hull looking to level up the match
08:13hard
08:13acre is dumped into the ground here
08:18they're 25 away lasoni looking to try and break through it's the whole fan you can hear singing
08:27here on derby day got the drop sees but hangs on
08:36slow to his feet hopefully okay they can't oh hamstring that is a problem
08:43that is a problem john asiata is gone down this could be calamitous for the black and whites
08:50laid law trying they're a man down here and john asiata instantly felt the hamstring that's been such
08:56a problem for him caesar finds lynn lynn over the top for lewis martin did he get it down lewis
09:03martin
09:05they're gonna have a look on field the try is giving it will of course be checked but what a
09:11pass from
09:12linton and lewis martin hangs on to it it's all about the grounding but that is bad bad news for
09:21the black and whites john asiata being helped off the field yeah a try for the black and whites but
09:26at what cost and it was in reaching for the ball and i wonder whether it's the hamstring or even
09:31the
09:31calf you know it's just to look like a really awkward dive but the part the pass from davy linton
09:38was
09:38special wasn't it basketball over the top they had the right edge winger coming in in davis
09:44and he's gone over the top to lewis martin who we know is prolific
09:5147 tries if that is awarded in 64 appearances and john cartwright well he's happy with the try
09:59but he'll be very very quickly trying to get a word from the bench on the sideline to see what
10:05his man like and i'll tell you from our position he is not moving freely at all
10:11so this hasn't been confirmed yet has it no it's all the ground in here is there a is there
10:16a movement
10:17here is there a movement oh i'll tell you what
10:24and do you know what if if it is then look at the man in the frame the fullback number
10:29four
10:29number 14 jack broadbent just gets enough
10:38to make him nervous to make him nervous as he got his fingers on it there
11:05right this is going upstairs it didn't look great did it let's find out what liam rush makes of this
11:11one
11:31okay i've cleared everything up to this point just need to look at the ground and if we go frame
11:34by
11:35frame on here please frame by frame keep going keep going slow slow
11:44okay the ball's down at that point but is there separation if we go to camera one please
11:52i've already checked camera right and you can't see the ball because of the referee's boots
11:57slow slow slow slow slow one more frame
12:05okay the ball's down there and is this separation between the ball and the hand do you have anything
12:10from the handheld possibly
12:16okay we'll go back go back a couple of frames on this okay now go forward forward and
12:24pause there see if they've got any other angles
12:34okay slow oh there we go so so go the frame before please so the ball's in his hand there
12:40but it's not on the ground
12:41if you go the next frame the ball's on the ground and there is separation there between the hand and
12:46the ball
12:48well thank you i've made my decision
12:53wow it didn't look like he got it down cleanly but john wells is that picture there sufficient evidence
13:00to overturn an on-field decision of trying well that's exactly what i'm thinking i don't think it's definitive is
13:05it
13:09wow this is a big big decision and it's going to wear the red and whites now that is an
13:18absolutely
13:18catastrophic 30 seconds for hull john cartwright looks on the grounding of the try was contentious
13:26what is not in doubt is an injury to john asiata here we see the replay again just had a
13:33bit of a
13:33wobble there didn't at the end but asiata when he juggled that ball gets up from the back of his
13:39hamstring and he could not even walk off the field he had to be helped off the field they are
13:44losing now
13:45their their key attacking component now and and it's been their key link man
13:50since his return to to first grade football and from a from a hamstring injury and yet it's not just
13:56for
13:57for the rest of today's game it's what the next six weeks now looks like for all fc
14:00he's that important for them but that is a key moment as he said a key minute in this game
14:06for
14:06now and for the next month for the record would you have given that try or overruled it i don't
14:13well if you put him on the spot i don't think there was sufficient there from the angles we saw
14:17to overrule an on the field decision of try but you know i wouldn't be a referee for a gold
14:23pig mark so
14:25how big's the pig ball here with may it's such a tough job we know that we are here to
14:32ask the
14:33questions here's broad bent is that the reprieve that whole kr needed here it goes may short side
14:41gonna roll the kick in they're trying to get through balls on the ground boy brave to win a day
14:46for the
14:46fullbacks and boy this time comes up with a good to hold hasn't it just because you know in all
14:51that
14:51we did mention broadbent's arm at the last minute on lewis martin and then at the other end of the
14:57field
14:57logan more he's had to clean up an awful lot hasn't he and all his work has been under pressure
15:01i think he's shown up really well as he did last week and they have to find another way now
15:07mark
15:07aren't they because they're missing that natural middle forward acting as a as a link player a real good
15:14passer of all is asiata they're gonna have to adjust now and modify on the flight they are indeed this
15:20the first of a triple header across sky sports today and we will be next at st helens as they
15:29take on the wigan warriors that will be live after us next you can see the team news going across
15:36the
15:37bottom of the screen now jackson hastings does play there was big doubt about him but he is in the
15:44starting lineup and for wigan look at that jfield is back on derby day jfield back for wigan that's
15:52the big news hastings starts for saints field starts for wigan you can follow it all live on sky
15:59sports as soon as we're done here as the ball now works its way across to hadley hadley gets it
16:06away
16:06to may may finds hicku hicku with a stick with a little step but can't get the pass away and
16:13the
16:13tackle made now here now is may fires it to tom amon great goal line defense brilliant goal line stand
16:21from
16:21the black and white that's a really good tackle took a number of all fc players harvey hill was involved
16:26samly sonny was involved and it needed every kilogram i think of both of them to stop tom amon
16:32but this is a tough set now this will be a really tough exit set for the black and whites
16:38it's the
16:38one thing i think they do like you know there's not an awful lot of punch coming out of backfield
16:43these are skilled outside backs there is nobody there who can punch 10 15 meters post contact
16:51this is going to dry up there already midway through the set
16:55here is romano
16:59so good for hull here's hill back into the action takes them up to the 40
17:06three in the tackle stands his ground oh now there's a bit of afters there no
17:11be allowed to play it and he gets it away here to hardacre just had to wait to collect low
17:16kick
17:17straight to broadbent advantage hill kingston rovers as he brings it over the 40.
17:23you see the playing field starting to tilt now i think they've done a really good job the robins the
17:27last couple of sets because the half started really positively for all fc
17:32there is no question the momentum of this game has shifted inside that 60 second period asiata gone
17:41louis martin tried denied all now works its way mincella finds tom amon he's tackled 30 out
17:52from the line lawton finds may turns it back hiku short pass broadbent he wanted to get it back to
17:59hiku he couldn't he reversed out that one quickly didn't he did when he looked what was waiting for him
18:05here now is may may he's got lewis lewis he's got hiku hiku's got gildar might not need him dumps
18:12it
18:12on the ground and once again moyes there and it's a penalty for a high shot on moyes and logan
18:18moyes
18:20doing his finest at the back here for hull and it's just just they've just managed to keep it off
18:28the
18:28boil haven't they so far it's half the temperature is right up there and davy litton in the background is
18:34just imploring his fans to get engaged in the battle as well
18:40there was a chance there wasn't there yeah it's logan moye look he's down low but he is caught high
18:46by mikey lewis that's fair enough you know it's very you know it is difficult for for mikey at this
18:53point because both are going down low to secure a ball gives him a little slap across the chops and
19:01the
19:02black and whites get again the unenviable task of working it out of their own 20 30 meter area
19:11sam lisoni trying to drag the black and whites
19:15back level hard acre finds bailey taken off his feet did well to hang on to that
19:26here now is caesar looking to get to the edge finds litten who gets his head through the tackle again
19:32but
19:33no chance of an offload this time told to get to his feet which he does here's cade cust
19:39red carded in the derby fixture last good friday ball now works his way to bailey finds romano romano
19:47tries to fend off gildart but lewis is there to smother the danger brisco
19:54caesar has to backtrack sends it high broadbent and burgess will deal with it burgess collects it and
20:01it goes straight to ground
20:0513 and a half gone second half as we were at half time
20:15here's broadbent again
20:21lewis wants to run himself but gets nowhere interesting to know jez litten at the moment
20:29lawton takes what's on offer
20:33being a bit of a one-out set that for
20:36the robins
20:38what have they got at the end of it here now is lewis
20:42floats it burgess after moy boy beats him to it burgess gets him as soon as he hit the ground
20:49the
20:49winger was all over the fullback yeah moys position has been really good though you know
20:53he's found first team opportunities really limited and i think he's acquitted himself really well
20:57i was wondering how long before linghi saw was back out on the field you know because
21:01they were lacking a bit of puns jeslet and just cooling his heels
21:04he will be reintroduced i'm fairly certain of that
21:07yeah here's hardacre spots a little gap behind the rook and he takes that and more hardacre
21:1420 meter carry gets the black and whites on the front foot cust wants it quickly robbins player down
21:20in the rook here now goes hill hill slicing his way forward gets the bumpers up on lewis tackle made
21:2730
21:28out quick play of the ball hardacre will find caesar caesar goes high that's gonna come straight down here
21:35who's gonna collect it it's gathered banded back hills put the kick in oh they're off sides
21:41whole offside at the kick caesar's having real trouble isn't he getting any real
21:46purchase on these kicks the wind is causing all sorts of trouble
21:49yeah it is but they were good five meters in front of the kick and there is jez lytton now
21:55back onto the
21:56field so lawton has done his spell yeah offside it was from the kick conor bailey in front lewis punches
22:04it into touch and you're starting hookers back out there now jez lytton that'll really increase the
22:09the tempo around the rook
22:13all with so aso sue offload that was touched it's going to be another set ball works its way to
22:20bachelor bachelor will straighten things up
22:24lytton straight into it finds so aso sue
22:29sue pounds it forward next try crucial here rivals round what a start saints wigan leads bradford all to come
22:39on a bumper friday maybe the biggest ever good friday
22:44on sky sports and we'll be with you every step of the way ball now with may may straightens up
22:51goes
22:51through may need support lin's there off the bench to score jeslin opens up a two score lead for the
23:00robins
23:01and now they're all at it oh there's a big scrap on now temperatures boiling over lin was here after
23:10he got the ball down and the fans reacted the players reacted it's tarvey down hole it's red and white
23:17and
23:18black and white and they're all getting involved well that touch paper i think was late wasn't it you're
23:23right it was romano was trying to chase down jezz lytton as he went in to score but that should
23:30not and
23:30this should not detract from what was a wonderfully brilliant piece of play from tyro may who just
23:37completely unpicked the black and white's defense he stepped straight through the middle of that
23:43defensive line and then jezz lytton in his first touch of the ball since being reintroduced
23:49has scored underneath the sticks i've got the try on field if you want to review it when i give
23:56it
24:04so the try awarded on field
24:14well animals got a bit to sort out here you feel and they may be calling on a couple of
24:18players but
24:19first of all let's celebrate what was a wonderful try brilliant piece of individual play from tyro may
24:25we know he does this so well ghosts between two fired tired forward players and then jezz lytton just
24:32explodes at the middle and it was lewis martin it was lewis martin who came in
24:38and robin's players have taken offense to that mikey lewis i think first on the scene but that is
24:44brilliant that's lovely terrific stuff from tyro may lewis in and then
24:51yeah i'm not sure there was an awful lot in it was there from lewis martin he was trying his
24:55best to
24:56get there with fairness there's no reaction from lytton is there no but it's lewis who comes firing in
25:03after but take a look i mean that is just that is outstanding stuff from tyro may he's picked out
25:09two tired middle forwards in lingisau and james bell and split them in two yeah look i don't think
25:17there's an awful lot i guess has he gone with his knee that and i think that's what whole car
25:23feel
25:26look let's take another look at that first of all i think that's that's just outstanding from may
25:31lytton and then let's have a look he's just not got there in time i'm not sure i'm not sure
25:36there's
25:36much in that at all well therefore does that warrant the reaction that follows no but look you know
25:43we know this is a a derby it's the whole derby everybody is right on the edge but mikey lewis
25:49we know what he plays like anyway he plays very very close to the edge emotionally anyway well he's
25:55got to cool himself down and kick this goal should do this for 10 point lead 16 points to six
26:02i think
26:02we'll see harren moore have a word with the two teams on halfway here final pass to lytton
26:12leighton puffs out the cheeks and scores a really significant try but because of this
26:21there will be consequences now there is a talking to by aaron moore let's listen to what he's going to
26:27say we've got incidental contact and then we've gone from giving a try yeah and then we've got
26:31players from both sides coming in now gents we've had a really good derby game so far yeah we don't
26:36want to spoil it behind by having that again we know we're going to place it down if we have
26:39that
26:40you speak to your boys okay well done aaron moore great try great bit of skill from tyrone mate yeah
26:49100 and we know he's got that in him look at mikey lewis he just straight makes a b-line
26:54doesn't he for
26:55lewis martin and then very quickly you can see it escalates hard acre and then they all start piling
27:00in short kickoff well did it go 10 it went 10 in the air yes it didn't go 10 on
27:06the field but it
27:06went 10 in the air so they get it back and significantly that's all it has to do it has
27:10to break the plane doesn't it doesn't have to be there when the ball touches the ground again
27:15well hull fc that look they don't need to score this set but they need to be the next side
27:20to post
27:21points and zach hardacre as he is now in possession needs to be right in the thick of things
27:27here's kate cust so the short restart works here's hill finds caesar ball wide chance now for linton
27:35linton gets it away to martin davis was backpedaling and his teammates came across to help him out and
27:41make the tackle linton fires the ball to caesar no asiar to remember i think he's got a hamstring
27:48problem here's kate cust cust gets it away to bell bell looks to his left nothing doing comes back to
27:54the
27:54right stands and takes the tackle 10 meters out last one cust to hill needs to find a pass needs
28:04to
28:04find a pass last tackle gets it away sal gets it away now to cust gets it wide kicking behind
28:12davis
28:12collects it but he'll collect him good kick because kate cust was not the intended recipient of that ball
28:20second phase stuff handed it handed it in a an enviable position by lingistow and manufactures
28:27something that he's going to give the black and whites a repeat set this is the ball that very
28:33clearly breaks that 10 meter play and then he's blown back he actually catches his own kick does sakar
28:40he does what a great position there from uh aaron moore was stood right on the 10 meter line wasn't
28:45he so he
28:46could see whether that had gone the 10. great refereeing there and here comes lingi sao
28:53drives it in well it's still in the balance isn't it we've got a quarter of our opening game to
29:01go
29:01saints wigan bradford leads all to come
29:06laidlaw with a good run cust in at dummy half gets it away now to hard acre he will find
29:14caesar
29:14caesar oh what a shot of bell what a shot from hiku again not the first time today caesar fires
29:23it wide
29:24risky pass collected by bailey trying to get the arms free can desperate defense from the robins
29:31as hull up to post points here's hill again
29:37fifth tackle they're coming short again here's caesar caesar rolls the kick in picked up by lewis
29:44lewis was hit high and the robins will get a penalty to relieve the pressure all right there's more verbals
29:51going on here now between aiden caesar and mikey lewis i think mikey put himself in exactly the right place
29:56some really good defensive work from the robins none more so than this absolute belter from hiku
30:06on james bell that's top draw that is top drop stuff he's that's a couple of bell ringers he's done
30:13this afternoon then mikey lewis he just cleans up really nicely he's just colored high by archer romano
30:22all right is that everything this game it has there's hiku no way through hiku so far
30:31lewis was in the right place to sweep up the kick and the robins have it back still only the
30:37one
30:38school second half here now mincella ball off the ground finds linton linton has got linghi
30:43south turning his back here's may's dropped it he's dropped it well he was trying to play there
30:49tyrone may and he's come up with an error once again he'll celebrate the mistake from their opponent
30:54yeah it's something they maybe maybe would have challenged had they had the option
31:00caesar's army's in there and there's enough in there to
31:05i don't think
31:09right i'm not sure why the clock challenge all i see a challenge in the ruling of one-on-one
31:13and a knock-on from them taking the balls just lost by tyrone may
31:27so hull have challenged this i thought the decision went tall well let's find out okay the decision on
31:35field is it's a one-on-one steal and then a knock-on by caesar so we'll just review this
31:39now
31:39go back please go back go back
31:44okay go slow here okay so when caesar's hand comes away may's still in possession
31:51and he then drops the ball forward which constitutes a knock-on thank you i've made my decision well
31:57then aiden caesar right well aiden caesar's seen what we've seen then hasn't he yeah it was a okay i'll
32:02knock on
32:07the challenge will be successful one look was all it needed and hull are going to get it back now
32:14they've got to start taking advantage of this whole kr wastefulness with ball in hand yeah they have i
32:21think you know okay i've shown him at times in moments in this third quarter that just what they're
32:28capable of some brilliance from tyrone may in setting up jez lytton's try but there have been some mistakes and
32:35some errors that have crept into this game and you know if all fc are good enough
32:39they could do with taking advantage sooner rather than later because the clock is starting to become
32:43an issue yeah so with 17 remaining here derby day rivals round underway
32:49one of bailey takes it forward if hull can score now we're in for a grandstand finish
32:57miss hill plays to caesar short to bell bell carries again he's hit 15 out
33:07lytton will shake off hiku steps away but may's got him and hiku will wrap him up on the 10.
33:15needs a bit of brilliance from hull who's going to provide it short pass caesar surely tackled without
33:21the ball there wasn't he yes he was mincella had hold of him before he could get there
33:29and jack brown thought he was off to the races he's called back i don't know there could be any
33:34complaints about that one no it was it was a planned run around play yeah and you can see a
33:39shirt pull very
33:40clearly there from elliot mincella so a penalty and another set of six but they've got to sort
33:49themselves out here structurally of hull fc forward goes lingy sao time ticking down you would think
33:57they'd want to just just play to the right and then open this field up for a shot but they're
34:00going
34:00now on and they're going back to the middle through james bell i think this needs to be early ball
34:05to
34:05davy lytton i think that was their best chance the center field now they're going short to hill hill
34:13can't wrestle the ball free so he's going to be tackled 10 out robbins at the moment defending that
34:19pretty easily now they will go to that edge here's caesar ball to lytton but as falling as he took
34:25it
34:25nowhere through there maybe they may kick towards the other side caesar will swing it away to hardacre
34:33hardacre looking to get to an edge gets the ball away romano but he's run behind briscoe he's got
34:38to go down referee's told him to go down he does in the end last one it's just not quite
34:43happening
34:43is it without asiata in the middle short pass they're going to run it bailey runs a kick through
34:48it bounced off a whole kr player but it wasn't played at and that will be a turnover and really
34:55john can't right side and look they're missing some key men they lost asiata in play it's starting the show
35:01now
35:01yeah it is yeah because it was a set that lacked ideas and tomo judged to have not played at
35:08the ball
35:08so this will be robin's possession there is john asiata so he is on the bench but he's not going
35:15to be
35:15taking any further part in this game well he missed a lot of last season the early part of this
35:20season
35:20and now he's injured again problems mounting still to come saints wigan 2 30 sky sports action tonight
35:29we're back at oddsall bradford unbeaten on their super league return at home they take on the old enemy
35:33lead 755 sky sports plus tomorrow the titans take on the broncos at 9 30 lovely offload there from the
35:40robins also hunters field against york 255 on sky sports plus and then we're off to france for the
35:48dragons and to lose oh what a kick that is not quite a 40 20 i think it was just
35:54short of the red line
35:55but it was a heck of an effort from lytton yeah it was and i think it's really smart play
36:00as well because
36:01they're just dictating which end of the field they're playing at the robins don't need to score anymore they
36:06in front two scores clear so they will dictate where and when they will uh play the remainder of this
36:14game smart stuff from the dummy half
36:19time now the enemy as well as the scoreboard of hull fc who've been brave but needs a little bit
36:26more than
36:33that
36:34tackled on his own 30. they've had territory hall but they haven't been able to turn it into points
36:43it's the one try for jez lytton in the second half all now works its way to lingi sao
36:56caesar finds bell
37:02gets a late offload to lytton what can lytton make of that gets past hiku can he find a pass
37:08he does
37:09dumps it on the ground that's well picked up by sarif he held onto that great work from the big
37:14man
37:16last one it's a little bit off the cuff at the moment hardacre sends it downfield the wind not
37:24quite as prominent broadbent collects it on his line and he'll bring it forward up to the 10.
37:31he's been everywhere as broadbent hasn't he this afternoon and once again davis
37:37he's more than willing to do the hard stuff
37:41there's gildar good carry from him not the second try in that first half
37:49all right it's a full set where they're just the backs are giving the forwards a breather here
37:53like you said john they don't need to win the game again do they it's just simple rugby now yeah
37:59you watch to get this this will get punched into a corner as well now
38:01oh set restart burra gives away on the last tackle here's brown the former whole man finds an offload
38:10to lytton lytton finds may may finds hiku hiku finds davis davis to the races great cover tackle
38:17great tackle lytton but it's another set here and they're already inside the 20 here's hiku
38:26hiku trying to straighten up will take the player of the ball 10 out
38:31this could be the derby day spoils in the next set lytton finds lewis lewis scampering angling across
38:40looking for a runner ball was knocked down tip back another set they're going to get another go here's
38:45tom amon amon hull on the ropes now and the robins about to land the knockout blow
38:55amon told to get to his feet lytton's gonna probe looking to pinch one tackle the meter or so out
39:02lewis wanting the ball gildart in a dummy half gildart will get it away short to brown brown tries to
39:12punch his way through lewis to the left that's where they're going now here's may may uses the decoy finds
39:22gildart gildart gildart flicks into burgess joe burgess celebrates the red red robins go bob bob bob in
39:33along derby day delight for willie peters and whole kingston rovers mikey lewis waves to the black and
39:42whites it's time to go home he says the robins are going to win on good friday it's a brilliant
39:49play we've
39:50seen it so many times from the robins it's the short set of play back to burgess and he needs
39:57no space
39:58and no time and he now goes seven tries in six appearances the shape is there but i'll tell you
40:06what just how quickly they fall into that shape is another thing all together gildarts dancing feet
40:13do enough to attract art romano just to suck him in and the ball out the back is a sweet
40:19one the
40:20finish is even better he's got no more than a postage stamp to work with and burgess as he has
40:26done to
40:26his long and illustrious career just scores tries the man just scores tries it's another brilliant finish
40:37and that's directed at all sc fans really peters celebrates because i think he realizes
40:45very much as you said mark that that could well be the knockout blow this afternoon
40:51go back up the other end lewis martin the number five didn't get the ball down but at the other
40:57end
40:57burgess does and now a kick a very tough kick from lewis but the lead is at 14 it's a
41:07three score lead already
41:11well let's see have been brave
41:15but bravery only gets you so far and the quality is all been with all kings and rovers
41:23can lewis slip over another two here no he can't and it's it's not just that it's not just where
41:32burgess scores it's how they get there just look at them here falling into shape look at where gildart is
41:37here mikey lewis is organizing his troops how quickly they fall into that shape and then bang they're
41:44straight at the defense that is the result of hours and hours and hours on a training field every man
41:50knowing the job exactly where they need to be and then executing off the back of it
41:53superb finish once again by burgess but just goes to show you the work and the detail in setting up
42:00shape like that is just as important yeah we get underway the not so short restart is collected by
42:07burgess and he was touched in the air another penalty another about pushing and shoving young harvey
42:13hill getting involved zach hardacre steps in and says let's settle it down every second counts now for
42:21hull
42:27burgess eyes on the ball up early committed and it was it was a half committed attempt wasn't it from
42:33logan boy
42:35and harvey hill he's very quickly ejected backwards out of that melee by a number of full chaos players
42:43it's been just the right side of wrong hasn't it this afternoon i don't think it's really kind of
42:48kicked off in any any major way the referee has handled it very very well and the players generally
42:55speaking have handled it well yeah here's hadley former hall man he'll enjoy this one
43:0387 appearances in the black and white but he's a red and white now and he's a history making red
43:09and white as
43:09well part of their treble winning season their world club challenge win
43:17now the robin's going to post more points to wrap things up in style
43:21amon tackle 25 out lit waits at dummy half
43:31lawton gets it away to may may uses the decoy finds gildar gildar inside the 10
43:39tackled on the 10. burgess waits to play it rovers now in command
43:47ball back to brown he's tackled just short lewis wants it short side may what they've got numbers
43:53they're going to the left here here the ball to gildar gildar going for the double tackle the meter out
43:59yeah well managed this time by romano and just saw enough of oliver gildar grab hold
44:06and shut him out but i mean this looks now like it is going to be a performance you know
44:13what at times
44:14has been reminiscent of what we saw the last couple of weeks from all fc gritty determined ultimately
44:20though balls on the ground here john balls on the ground and this is exactly this is my point now
44:25that's a forced error but you know what it's still an error and there's been 11 of them now from
44:31all fc
44:32but it's not just the volume it's where they've been conceded on the field so the other side the ball
44:38they've heard in terms of discipline and conceded a lot of penalties and let hulk air off the hook at
44:44various times and i know he's been hit hard here but that still goes down as a lost ball
44:51on the wrong end look we've got to mention it hulk fc will price harvey baron jake arthur
44:58hermann sasa jake cartwright use of aiden all missing brad fash missing they are down on troops
45:04they've lost john asiata the man there on your screen that is going to be a hammer blow for john
45:08cartwright
45:09they're doing it tough look they they've given everything you can't fault the effort
45:14all the commitment they've made a couple of key errors granted but the quality has been red and
45:18white rather than black absolutely yeah and this is what we're saying and i don't think hulk are
45:22really hit the gears the levels that they've got and take a look at that the next five games for
45:27hul fc
45:28it doesn't get any better does it they have a week off don't they and then they're into
45:32st helens before they travel to castleford and then host to lose you know there's no gimmies these
45:39days in in super league is key isn't it castlewood to lose and bradford three games they will be
45:44expected to win well look i mean they would be expected to win on paper but if the way we're
45:48carrying on here now arthur amana the latest person to succumb to injury they're going to be running out
45:54of bodies very quickly they are well still waits for his first derby win john cartwright
46:03when it rains it pours and for the black and whites they can't buy a break at the moment
46:09and a chance now for the robins to add to the misery
46:17scrum 10 out and attacking options everywhere you look yeah
46:25this incident apparently has gone on report the uh tackle here jack brown over the top is it
46:32well i think it's a hadley around the legs
46:36that look it's on report they'll have a look at it they'll do what they need to do with it
46:39we'll leave that with them nothing for now hopefully romano is okay
46:45and here now a chance for may finds lewis gets it to davis good tackle james bell it was
46:55they're looking at the mechanics of that hadley tackle apparently that's what's being questioned
47:00or poor pass poor pass from the wing and they'll be disappointed with that and a chance for the robins
47:07to
47:07put more points on the board has come to nothing
47:11and that's i think if there'd be one criticism from willie peters is you know particularly after
47:17last week where i thought they played exceptionally well albeit against an understrength saint side
47:22i don't think they've quite hit the heights now now these derbies always come with an extra layer
47:27of emotional baggage that you've kind of got to carry around with you as a player
47:31we'll probably see more of that this afternoon in the the wigan saints derby
47:36but you know most of these players now have been exposed to this frequently enough
47:44look at this defensively they've not given an inch and do you go back to that lewis martin not
47:50grounding the ball over the line they've not really threatened to score after that have they
47:55that was it was a key that was the key 60 seconds of the game you called it at the
47:59time mark and you're
47:59bang right the lost asiata and that had a try turned over on uh rivideo review oh balls on the
48:07ground
48:07chance here for burgess burgess down the touchline had support inside him he's chucked it forward
48:14it's gone a mile forward and another chance comes up empty
48:20now look you don't blame me the side i mean you you've got to you've got to try and play
48:24from
48:24whole fc point of view and burgess won't care i mean he plays this kind of way anyway doesn't he
48:31goes for the corner he's getting shut down by hardacre you know tries the attempted pass back
48:36on the inside and this game now will will wind down to its conclusion which will be a another
48:43victory for the robins over the black and whites the six that's a winning rung that's going to be
48:48extended to six now yeah it is not lost here since july last year and leads leads them twice didn't
48:58they last year they're the only team to beat them here they were and this win for hulk air will
49:05lift them
49:09above the black and whites
49:13yep
49:19well now works its way forward with sam lasoni hits it away here's moy
49:30last few minutes of the opening game of rivals round and hull are beaten they've given it everything they had
49:40but it wasn't enough today
49:44last one here burrow will get it away to caesar caesar will kick downfield davis will collect
49:53brings it on and over the 30
49:57and sonny misses the tackle big gear goes around craven park
50:02they led 10 nil early on and although hull got back into it at 10-6 they missed that big
50:08chance to
50:09level up the match when martin couldn't ground it correctly in goal
50:16tries for litten and burgess second half
50:18i mean it'll be red and white delight once again here as gildart will carry infield
50:31lawton finds tyro may short pass to hiku
50:36they would like one more
50:39ball works its way to lewis
50:42broadbent into the line broadbent has got support with him burgess
50:46burgess for the corner he's in
50:49a double for the flying burgess
50:53game center match all kings and rovers
50:56the champions are back on the rise
51:00and burgess with another double secures the two points
51:06and the robins continue to dominate the black and whites when it comes to derby day collisions
51:15just another day at the office for joe burgess
51:22as he flies in at the corner lovely work again down that left-hand side
51:32may with a pass that found lewis broadbent through the line
51:38and he gives it to burgess who acrobatically is over in the corner his second of the second half
51:48and it will be another win for hulkingston rovers
51:54over their old enemy broadbent who's had a fine game
52:01draws his man and puts burgess over eighth super league try the season for burgess
52:09and hulk air
52:11they've got back-to-back big home wins
52:15to see them rise up the table
52:24mikey lewis with a tough kick this one from out here a few minutes ago
52:29sends this one and that one too goes wide of the target
52:3524 points to six then in favour of the red and whites
52:44burgess late double
52:47ensures a seventh successive derby win for hulkingston rovers
52:54great finish standard flying finish now for players like burgess
53:01short restart
53:04collected dropped went backwards
53:08oh i think we'll get the ball back they'll get one chance
53:12with a couple of seconds left but no great enthusiasm to pack down the scrum here the job
53:18is done and there's going to be an almighty roar around these parts
53:23it may well be the last time willie peters takes on hull here at soul group craven park but it
53:31smiles all round
53:34as the siren goes and it's home delight once again
53:40the three signals that will be it it is the robins who win again for willie peters
53:49well there's a long way to go in this season as the robins look to defend all the titles they've
53:55won over the last 12 months jack broadbeck was outstanding he got the games opening try gildar
54:01with the second tom briscoe's fine effort gave hull fc hope but they couldn't crucially get a second
54:09try when little went over to extend the lead to 10. it was joe burgess with a couple of late
54:16tries
54:17that put the icing on the cake it's game one of three on a bumper good friday rivals round day
54:25of
54:25action and it smiles for the red and whites they've seen off the black and whites once again
54:30it ends here whole kings and rovers 24 hull fc six mark john thank you very much yes an odd
54:38win and two
54:39competition points means whole kings and rovers jump over their arch rivals hull fc on the betfred
54:45super league table that's now whole kings and rovers sitting in six they push bradford out of the
54:51playoff places and hull dropped down into ninth spot so explain this to me john wilkin and sam tomkins
54:59as the champions you get off to a very big start to the season shock losses to york and to
55:04the catalan
55:05dragons then your coach announces that he's leaving at the end of the year and you string back
