00:00yeah well good afternoon mike and we are privileged to be here aren't we i'm going to focus on two
00:04free scoring wingers joe burgher six in five to start 2026 but if we're talking strike rates
00:11this bloke is at 0.73 if you look you take as a standard one for a try every game
00:17through a long
00:18and illustrious career he has been a constant thorn in opposition sides the other end of the uh the
00:24park the other end of the career scale if you like is lewis martin he's still finding his way
00:2963 appearances in a black and white shirt 46 tries identical strike rate by the way much bigger
00:35sample size for joe burgess but keep your eyes on these two they can finish a try what an atmosphere
00:41here rivals round and they're just a sign the wind hulkinson rovers are kicking off straight into the
00:47teeth of what is a very strong wind here yeah it's going to be really significant i feel
00:53i think the start to this game is going to be hugely important
00:57here we go then rivals round underway and it's martin with the first carry and he's pushed back
01:03both teams coming off the back of wins last week hulkars best performance of the season
01:09hull have had back-to-back home wins against leeds and catalans well they've not won away since july
01:16last year hull fc as hill is well met there's no love lost between these two there could be some
01:25fireworks
01:26on the field here the first of a triple header
01:32saints wigan and bradford leeds to come up towards halfway hull and here's aiden caesar back in the
01:40lineup floats the kick downfield and there's broad bent waiting to catch it on the full he'll bring it
01:46back not a day for risky long passes in your own 20 today john no absolutely not and yeah you
01:52feel for
01:53these fullbacks because at different times during today both are going to be challenged just the
01:56weather is another mix paul fc going haunting harvey hill just sneaks a little high there and it's davis who
02:03bears the brunt of it i was going to say good first set you know good first 60 seconds by
02:07the visitors
02:08really direct over the advantage line but then just elapsing concentration over eager from harvey hill
02:17he's made a good start i think at hull been pretty good yeah real man yeah and kind of combative
02:23middle forward as well just what they needed yeah they're not kicking for tucks they're gonna run it
02:28this really is a strong wind in this first half that the red and whites are running into
02:34that's really significant as well mike they made a beeline there straight for aiden caesar recovering
02:39from a pec injury ahead of schedule we're here so no surprise at all to see them putting plenty of
02:45traffic this afternoon the halfbacks way game number 76 already bigger year than ever on sky sports with the
02:55rugby league all around the world lytton tackled here goes tom amon
03:03they're inside the 40. lewis waits to the left of lytton he gets it now he's going to send it
03:09high the
03:10wind will hold it up it's a tough one for the fullback to come and get ball batted back and
03:15it'll be
03:15collected by hull it's so difficult with or without the ball this wind yeah smart from borough as well i
03:21think
03:21he's anticipated that ball was going to get held up in the breeze there's an offload oh he's put down
03:27first error is a whole one well the offload was on but they couldn't take it in martin spills the
03:35ball
03:36let's do it it's almost an accidental coming together here i think harvey harvey hill has reacted to the
03:41robins just coming in and celebrating the ever not really having a go at lewis martin but everybody's on
03:46edge at the moment the first five minutes of this game offload by briscoe can't be hauled in by martin
03:53and the robins they really get around one another and celebrate the first error from hul fc
03:58that's unfortunate for the young man it's not a bad offload is it from brisco
04:05right first attacking chance for the robins they were explosive last week against st helens
04:12they were looking for more than the same look at that 249 meetings 124 going the way
04:20of the red and whites ball now here with lewis first real probing run from him
04:26design for mikey lewis as well we'll come to him in a moment but i reckon good early touches is
04:31a good
04:32indicator for robins fans yeah more taken in a big shot goes flying in there and now another penalty
04:40it's bubbling up nicely we haven't even hit four minutes yet
04:45ling is out this time you take an objection to suah so sue
04:51and then that lift of the leg as well there was another impact as well very very physical start
05:03here now is tom amon
05:0810 out interesting they didn't opt for the two there the robins they want more than that here
05:13now is may fires it wide quick hands but bad hands it's gone behind the outside backs and over the
05:19sidelines so hull's first test they come up good and willie peters won't be happy with that and look
05:26at the celebrations this has been a really big thing in the last few weeks for hull yeah absolutely it
05:30has
05:31and that's something something john cartwright's made a real point of and saying these guys are
05:35playing for one another tom brisco really really early decision to come in on mikey lewis
05:41and you'd actually think i think the error there is that is the robins left edge not deep enough not
05:45giving them enough time because that right edge of of hull fc as we've seen over the last couple
05:50of weeks particularly against the catland dragons last week they do have a tendency to wedge to try and put
05:55pressure on
05:57oh get it back oh another error john asiata well he'd have been bottom of your list for unforced errors
06:09and another chance for the robins our most unlikely source and they're inviting all kinds of pressure
06:14on themselves pulque are already opened the field up they're going to go left here yeah they're going
06:19back to that favored left hand side short pass sue carries strongly and we see the error again
06:28here now mincella finds broadbent turns it back for peder hiku he's well met lovely tackle from lingy
06:34south linton waits he's going to scoot he's looking for runners bachelor takes it forward caesar pushes him
06:42away from the line with help from davy linton broadbent finds may here now is lewis they've got it to
06:53gildar gildar cuts in the defense jams across and makes the tackle last one lewis is it high or a
07:01low
07:01kick he floats it towards the post it's there to be caught it's collected what a catch by linton
07:07or was he taken in the air he might have been and it's going to be a penalty for lfc
07:11right underneath
07:12their own pose that's a really committed effort we were stood pitch side weren't we earlier today
07:17and we were making a comment about just how big strong rangy athletic a player davy linton is
07:23jesus had to commit to that hasn't he right around the back of a number of players
07:27and collides with tom amon midair that's what the penalty's been given away for and a
07:32a very very welcome relieving penalty for hull fc
07:37jesus some player he's some player already davy linton you think well the passage of time and a bit
07:43more experience will offer him he has got all the physical attributes that is for sure he's only 22
07:49siata this time holds on takes it forward so nervy start for hull fc but no damage done on the
07:57scoreboard
07:57yet he'll find caesar here's bell he's been good last couple of weeks in those wins but he's well
08:03wrapped up here now is burrah short pass to linghi sao saw floats it here's bell bell steps his way
08:09over
08:10halfway and the robins eventually get their man
08:13all here now with hardacre takes the tackle last one burrah jumps in at dummy half caesar will float it
08:26it'll
08:26drift on the wind broadbent can catch it but he's well met great chase over on the far side
08:33and that's not a bad set from hull having had to defend their own line for a couple of sets
08:37yeah it was arta romano wasn't it who got on his bike john cartwright will be looking on and
08:44well until a couple of seconds ago would have been very pleased with what he's seen so far
08:48the defensively certainly and given a couple away of errors in possession but they defended off the back
08:54of it really well and this time discipline has cost them another penalty which mikey lewis squeezes into
09:01touch that wasn't his greatest kick there was it john cartwright looking for his first derby success
09:10as a black and whites coach oh he'd love for it to come today may to tom amon takes it
09:19forward
09:21just let him wait another opportunity for the robins they were scoring tries for fun last week
09:27ball works its way to hiku that's a good read good defensive shutdown by lewis martin
09:34was a clear ploy isn't it by hall to get up early on the edges and put pressure just deny
09:38them time if
09:39you do it right and you and you work as a defensive unit so not one man making a decision
09:44on his own but as a
09:45as a group you can solve a lot of problems here's may may tackles last one
09:51lytton will go to lewis right lewis on the run to points and broadbent's over first try he can afford
09:58an
09:58early celebration the robins break the deadlock on derby day all eyes on lewis and he slips a pass to
10:07broadbent and the robins lead by four that's fantastic stuff and you know what this is a
10:13set play where bird where broadbent starts from he completely disguises what's going on
10:20and mikey lewis takes the ball on an outline knowing full well that he's fullback he's going to be
10:25supported on the inside
10:30this is a fantastic set of play we picked up before the blade of ball have a look at number
10:3514 back in the
10:36middle of your screen here that's the try scorer look at the movement he makes off the back of this
10:42he's still the other side of the rook now look at the late movement that's a set play that is
10:47brilliant
10:48stuff from training ground to craven park and the robins score first it is brilliant set up play played
10:58for and got mikey lewis and jack broadbent working in tandem that's lovely to see really really well
11:07executed yeah brilliant play a lot of talk about jack broadbent's future interests yeah allegedly from
11:15hull willie peters delighted might be leaving at the end of the year but it still means everything
11:21to be in charge of this great club and lewis couldn't have asked for an easier opening than this
11:29he got the assist and he adds on another two points six points to nil and a pretty good opening
11:3510 minutes for the robins what a wonderful try it's just how it's constructed just the outline there
11:42really pulls players over you can see borough from the marker position
11:49who's had to cover across
11:53it's a brilliant finish
11:55i mean this will this will get pulled apart at half time by the boys over in wigan
11:59but it's that that is that that is a really well constructed try
12:07hardacre will restart there is our try scorer it's a high swirling kick it's going to bounce this is
12:13going to be a problem but may made that look so easy that could have gone spectacularly wrong there
12:18all here with litten gets it away to davis
12:31carried into contact another good strong run so asosu seems to get better with age at the moment
12:36he's so direct so again so confrontational challenges those middle players
12:42gildart couldn't hold on to it the referee's going to say there was a knock on either way
12:49it shapes up really well and then picked a really good line
12:53ollie gildart i think the pass just came in too hot from from hadley
13:01just too much weight on it isn't there there's nothing wrong with the line nothing wrong with the
13:05setup just hardly letting far too much mustard on the ball
13:11so an opportunity for hull fc to hit back hardacre will feed the scrum center field got two behind the
13:20scrum almost in a quarterback position see caesar and moore now they peel off to the right and caesar gets
13:29it short pass and now a chance and they're going to get a penalty here and something happened i'm not
13:36sure what's gone on here free off the ball yeah hit off the ball says uh liam moore
13:46lewis yeah it's lewis on caesar isn't it they're easy really easy penalties for referees to award aren't they
13:55the ball taken forward by joe bachelor back in the side after an injury
14:01a welcome returning for fc here's asiata finds caesar gets it away ball out wide to lynn fires it for
14:09martin nowhere to go head class broadbent put his body on the line he might have paid the price there
14:15as they're going to go into touch anyway but that was derby day in a nutshell two young players
14:21absolutely committed to the cause and it's the robins who've come up with a play well lewis martin
14:27decided he was going for the corner come what may and jack broadbent who three minutes ago finished a
14:33wonderful move at the other end of the field take a look at this second into the tackle and he
14:38needed
14:38every inch of him as well i think he's got one on the beak for his trouble as well it's
14:43an accidental
14:43clash of heads are coming together of winger and fullback and sometimes in this game you just got
14:50to put your body where it hurts look at the distance he covers as well broadbent great tempo to get
14:57across
14:57the other side of the field and to shut out lewis martin we identified him as a prolific try scorer
15:03but
15:03that kid has saved a certain score there well that is bravery and absolute extreme there oh now a penalty
15:12another yardage penalty given away by hull yeah they're stacking up aren't they for for hull fc already
15:19it's the third penalty conceded by the visiting team
15:23and all in positions where it just lets the the robins off the hook
15:32a few errors from hull fc early in the piece here
15:41there's tom amon oh good shot goes in there from bachelor did well
15:48lytton finds mincella here's broadbent again goes to ground busy isn't he busy number of touches already
15:54for broadbent here's may may will swing it back to mincella mincella will straighten things up he'll take it
16:02forward good carry from the captain for tackle
16:08lewis is going to send one high and it's a tester for moy the red white shirts are after him
16:14oh
16:15burgess there probably a good job he didn't make connection
16:19see his personal just rifled in over the top logo moy got small quick and avoided
16:26what could have been a very ugly connection burgess straight over the top probably spared his blushes logo
16:31boy there
16:33pending their own end once again another big shot goes in
16:39well the arms go up from from the black and whites who thought that was a shoulder charge but
16:43this is what i like about all of c they're really invested in their defense look at what they've
16:48restricted pull fc to 15 18 meters in a full set oh linky sa wasn't the intended uh recipient hard
16:56acre gets it away he's done well there that could have gone uh disastrously wrong very quickly burgess
17:03will collect it but hulk are on the back of those defensive efforts start first tackle on halfway and
17:08it's going to get better than that because they've got themselves a penalty
17:12uh penalty number four and they've all been in good territorial positions
17:21fall at hull fc that they've conceded they've given away or early on the tackle count or both
17:28lingy sao is the culprit this time and as a result they're going to spend the bulk of this set
17:34of six
17:35defending inside their own 20 meter area and that's not where you want to be against the side with the
17:40attacking prowess of pulque out well their win over leads and that first half performance over
17:46catalan last week were built on being disciplined doing the basics really really well they've given
17:51away too many errors they've coughed up some cheap ball they're inviting the robins in and the robins
17:57already scored one you can see the ball getting blown around in between passes here's may may now
18:02looking to get to an edge finds davis davis cuts in he's brought down strong challenge goes in but the
18:08robins again starting to show some shape here now the ball works its way across here now is lewis
18:14lewis ducks under one tackle he's tackled a couple of meters out they're knocking on the door again
18:22back to may gets it away to broadband they've got numbers out why can they get it to davis no
18:27the
18:27sliding defense does its job fifth tackle bachelor waits may he's going to put the kick in no it's a
18:36short pass a moan finds mincella ball on the ground bounces kindly big chance here gildar collects gildar
18:43brought down but not stops gets it down holly gildar has the second rubbish try and they lead by ten
18:52points to nil the bounce of the ball favored the red and whites and gildar does the rest
18:58well they've done so well haven't they the black and whites for five tackles and then on the last
19:04just a bit of eyes up football got the ball to some space found the overlap there's a really nice
19:10passing here as well from an unlikely source in joe burgess
19:15here's the strip that led to the the field position on the first tackle from lini south
19:22and then take a look at this short ball to a moan keeps the play going and then just into
19:27some space
19:27that pass there was a very very good reactionary pass then it's just brilliant footwork we know
19:33gildar is blessed with great balance and great footwork he's a classy center and throughout his
19:40career he has done this just change direction keeps his balance finds the try line and look what they turn
19:48into a fairly regulation situation they have an ability to find space and it's just that final
19:55pass is a nice one from burgess good step the try was being checked in the background as it always
20:01is
20:02and has been from the start this season the try has now been confirmed
20:07and inside 20 minutes inside the quarter mark of the game willie peters celebrates his side second try
20:15well you mentioned ollie gildar a classy center john he's now a fit center he's having a good run in
20:21the
20:21team and he's starting to really show the quality that shot him to prominence at wigan
20:28and he's now back to his best this is a tough kick for lewis 10 meters in from touch he's
20:33kicking into that
20:34wind going to allow for that here as he's shot well it's just going to curl around a little bit
20:41too late
20:4210 points to nil gildar's try opens up a bit of breathing space on derby day yeah look and it
20:49wasn't it wasn't trademark exquisite ball playing from hulk a.r but it was enough to find the chinks
20:56in that whole fc defense and there's a lesson there there's a lesson for the black and whites just need
21:01to dial it back from the kind of nine or ten that they're trying to play at the moment dial
21:06it back
21:07clean up your discipline do not spend more time than you need to with your back against your try
21:12line because the robins scruffy or not adlib or not are good enough to punish you they are here come
21:18the
21:18robins then from the restart so asso suit takes it forward just to start remember saints wigan to come
21:272 30 will be straight over to st helens once we're done here sky sports action then tonight the bulls

21:51two weeks the dragons take on to lose 555 sky sports plus and on sunday it's cas wigan cas wakefield
22:00sorry 255 on sunday afternoon what a weekend we've got for you and every bit of it live on sky
22:07sports
22:12it's important here john hull don't panic i mean it's 10 points they can get that in a matter of
22:17minutes but
22:17they don't want it to get any worse before it gets better no and you know and i don't think
22:21they will
22:21be panicking i think they that you know this is a smart enough intelligent enough group of men to
22:26understand that they've been architects of their own downfall for the opening 20 minutes they've just
22:29given they've just given given hookah far too much haven't they possession territory tackles space
22:36conor bailey into the action here now is caesar caesar strains up straight into the shoulder of tom amon
22:46hardacre will get the ball on the last he'll send it now this could be going out one bounce
22:51how is the bounce well it's no good completely misjudged the win there zach hardacre
22:58yeah i think he tried to get underneath the belly of the ball tried to put some torpedo on it
23:03he's just miscued it and as soon as it gets above 10 15 meters off the ground the wind takes
23:09this
23:09seven tackle set this is tackle one burgess good carry yeah good start here for the robins tries
23:17for broadbent and gildar rivals round
23:22he's here and it feels bigger and better than ever before ball now with broadbent good tackle from bell
23:33linton finds mincella mincella to may here they come lewis lewis into the line good tackle from romano
23:45to may it goes he's going to send it back to burgess burgess slipped through the first tackle
23:50he's 15 out here last tackle they're loading lewis and may short side that's where they're going no they
23:58come back here may need to find an offload he finds lewis lewis puts the brakes on and he's not
24:04going
24:04to get the ball away he'll defend it in the end pretty well there was a kick option for him
24:08there
24:08as well i think mincella had pointed and gone through he decided to to take the responsibility
24:14of the run himself but look i don't mind that i think i spent all last weekend with you talking
24:19about
24:19just how good mikey lewis is when he gets early involvements and he is a running half there's no doubt
24:23about that but boy there was a kick option there and they've compounded that well perceived misjudgment
24:30from lewis with a penalty conceded offside at the play the ball just keen weren't they to get up and
24:36in
24:36all fc's faces yeah we mentioned that conor bailey had come on and it is joe bachelor that went off
24:43so
24:43we would hope no injury there conor bailey who's started the last few games well you would ex you would
24:50expect a back row of bachelor's caliber we know he's got an engine on him it'd be interesting to
24:55know that that's that doesn't feel to me like to be a regulation change no coming back from a calf
25:00injury
25:02we'll uh try to find out a little bit more about that here is linghi sao all trying to hit
25:08back
25:12here now is caesar moves it to hard acre gildart did well defensively there
25:21here's hill hill sidestepping he had the pass on gets it away eventually to caesar ball over the top
25:28risky matt at linton did well got it away from davis here now is bell bell bouncing his way out
25:34of
25:34tackles up to the 20. a little bit better from hull a little bit more adventurous here's john asiata short
25:41pass linghi sao to within 12. burrow waits asiata wanted it doesn't get it caesar does rolls the kick in
25:50gets it back still the last one and hulk air will survive defensively yeah john carlright is there
25:58be wondering what might have been there was a call from the left hand side from john asiata who wanted
26:03something
26:04i don't think you uh you ignore aiden caesar first game back it may be but clearly that the
26:11guy who pulls the strings in this side when fit
26:16just just a word on ollie gildart a couple decisions he's made now defensively
26:21zach hardacre is a wonderful player a starting half starting standoff he is not and and i think
26:27gildart is realizing there that he might have the extra quarter of a second and i say that with all
26:32due
26:32respect to zach i mean i think the guy's a phenomenal player but i think gildart's been really
26:37smart there with some decisions he's made putting him under pressure here's joy whitbread
26:44lytton finds a moan hill hits him hard but fair fifth tackle lewis just outside the 40 will send it
26:54down
26:54field moy's got time under this one he'll collect it heads off infield he was looking for an outlet but
27:02he's going to be tackled on the 20. important here that hulk get a good set get back down the
27:16other end
27:25that's a great run really good run from sam lasoni oh he's gone down holding his head here
27:33told to get to his feet oh he's having a look at mincella now he's uh becoming acquainted with mincella
27:41i saw that he says and i know who you are he's giving it the big ones as well he's
27:46still going he is
27:47high kick hard a cuff his broadband did well got back underneath it well there he is lasoni on for
27:54hill
27:55and his first act
27:59leads to a a war of words yeah the first contact wasn't it was in the tackle from
28:05from elliot mincella and others this is the replay of it so he's barged through a couple of players left
28:11lit on the ground it's that from mincella that's second effort that's coming
28:18mincella coming across the side and just connected and you can see why he's upset can't you
28:23i'll tell you what had he stayed down there sam lasoni that would have been an interesting decision
28:29for the official last one here lytton gets it away lewis sends it long he's got the kick behind
28:37moore who has to return inside the 10 to get it he'll turn it back for brisco brisco finds martin
28:44who
28:44having put one down earlier i want to welcome that pass but he held on
28:50you know it's brisco it's a forward pass
28:53it's another unforced error from hull fc with ball in hand
28:59well it's it's just too loose isn't it too too messy
29:04i don't i don't have an issue with yeah i mean that's it's you know what that could have that
29:08could have been caught on the wind you know i mean it was a flat ball and maybe that's caught
29:14something
29:15hayden caesar he's not happy is he but once again just giving up possession far too easily
29:24hey yeah ellie mincella's a lucky boy you know we've seen that now a couple of times
29:28haven't when our replay monitors he's a lucky boy i think lasoni has done him a favor by getting up
29:34he pointed to his head didn't he but he got up yeah
29:39right a chance again presented to the robins are they going to be
29:44grateful recipients here is gildart 28 on the clock
29:54and it's tom amon he's made a good start to the game he carries it strongly again
30:02is there a third try in the off into going back to that left-hand side may short pass whitbread
30:07spilled it he was almost through the line boy collects it and hull survive
30:14yeah that's all they're doing at the moment isn't it surviving when you take a look at
30:18the error it's just well good contact isn't it from romano second man in
30:27here's liggy sal puts a shot looks the charge on whitbread and whitbread stays down yeah he's come
30:34off second best he's in trouble just take a look at the possession here i mean i think it tells
30:38him a
30:39really one-sided story and it's what we're seeing and he's getting tasty now it is sonny brought up
30:44for impact from the bench he's bringing it asiata oh now was well tackled off the ball he was it
30:52was
30:53more a polite cuddle than a big shot but it was contact off the ball and it's a penalty the
30:58referee
30:58should be stopping the game here there's that well one it's in danger of boiling over and jaywit bread
31:03is in all sorts of trouble tried to get back to his feet and he's now having to be assisted
31:08off the
31:09field and it was a huge contact wasn't it that sent jaywit bread flying
31:16well this is what led to the penalty there the contact on bell
31:21to be fair petahigo couldn't have been any more polite about it but this is the one
31:26oh got it both ways didn't he jaywit bread there the bang from sound and a bang from his teammate
31:32as
31:33he fell to the ground yeah and he looks he looked really unsteady on his feet got the wobbly boots
31:37on
31:38he'll go off and will be assessed under the head injury protocols
31:42so the robins forced into a an unplanned change hull fc with the penalty as you rightly said petahiko
31:52conceding has put them for once in the right area to feel with tackles in the bank samly sonny boy
31:57what an
31:57impact he's made since he's come on the field just a wrecking ball of a player well he's loitering
32:02off john asiata's shoulder he's used as a decoy here's laidlaw he takes it forward
32:10i'm here burra finds caesar short pass lasoni tackled well good legs tackle from bachelor
32:18here now goes laidlaw again he's never scored a try ever in his career he's five out burra little
32:27studder step bit of hesitation caesar rolls a kick looking for linton and the ball collected by davis
32:34and he's brave really brave dives back into the field of play he's done really well as davis but i'll
32:39tell
32:39you what i think that's a mistake by hull fc i think that every chance there of earning a repeat
32:45set and
32:47they're just not on the ball enough at the moment to visit us i think linton was looking around there
32:52expecting to see lewis martin with him and martin was just a yard or two behind the play there
32:57here's davis oh that looked high oh yes eventually he says aaron moore well losing count now john of
33:06these yardage penalties that hello see are conceding and you know what that's the key they're all in this
33:11area of field and it's look it's come up off the shoulder into the head it's a penalty only
33:15but i think by my reckoning that's the sixth penalty now conceded
33:21there is connor bailey former york player
33:27here now is luckily
33:30i see arter drags him to the ground linton short pass to a moan how good's he been in the
33:37opening
33:3831 minutes plays it now linton looking gets it away tyrone may here's hadley hadley cutting back
33:46tackle made by borough but linton's got room linton's got room lots of it oh he's lost it he's lost
33:54it
33:55just recently all kingston rovers starting to make a couple of errors in the red zone
34:00i think they've been tempted haven't they because it's really started to open around the middle of
34:04the park that fatigue setting in from those middle forwards who've got through an awful lot of defensive
34:08work and he's just unable to keep control of the ball geez he's a really really dangerous dummy half
34:14runner he's lit and explosive first five or six meters it causes all kinds of problems but it has
34:22been a half a rugby that has been dominated by mistakes and penalties hasn't it are you surprised
34:26hull have not made more use of the wind kicking out of their own half i mean they've tried the
34:31best
34:31haven't they but they've been put under pressure i mean you think you give credit to
34:34to all kr there that they've applied kick pressure we don't forget they've they've applied pressure
34:39to the point where linghi sao ended up with it in his own 20 on the last tackle as well
34:43so
34:45well that'll help
34:49penalty for hull fc tell you what i am surprised at given the amount we saw the possession statistics
34:56over two-thirds possession to the home side what i am surprised at is that it's only 10 nil
35:00and i think you can give the black and white some credit here they've they have bent and buckled but
35:06they haven't been breached on all but the the two occasions when the tries have been scored this is
35:11not this is not a whole fc side that he's getting blown away here no mention those wins against leeson
35:16certainly first half last week against the dragon second half a different story as tyro may puts a shot on
35:24lisoni
35:25and siata hard acre finds caesar nice shape gets it wide brisco brisco angling back angling through
35:32still going brisco rolling back the years tom brisco what a pass to moi
35:37moi dragged down 10 away and we've got another penalty that was sensational from tom brisco
35:44yeah scintillating passage of play and just again we talked about oliver gildar balancing possession
35:51look at the contact balance on on brisco they're not hanging around here
35:55well they're going laidlaw will lay the platform
35:59here now is cade cust six again cust gets it away to caesar his belly hopes up for bell what
36:08a tackle
36:09from bachelor looks wide open there for bell the door slammed in his face and they put it down
36:16but it's a penalty penalty hulk are offside so john cartwright's side get a reprieve
36:22this is right in front of the cohort of traveling fans in the corner of this ground
36:26who are to a man and woman on their feet roaring on their players on the field cade cust now
36:32will
36:33start this next set there's been a a couple of occasions when the robins have been split
36:40some really good individual efforts can they put something together as a team here's bell so close
36:45to a try and if they score next right back in the balance here on derby day here now is
36:53asiata asiata
36:55brought down lasoni went down off the ball there laidlaw's going to do well to hang on to that he
37:01might have lost it he has lost it he's been pinched by mincella oh the captain is a pickpocket
37:08that's a really important play because for once hull fc were looking really dangerous
37:16and now they get the opportunity through hard carries it's got to be said to clear the lines
37:20the robins but i'll tell you what elliot mincella who was
37:26controversially perhaps not penalized for a hit on sam lisoni earlier
37:30comes up with a really important play in the context of this half
37:36big passage of play to the break here is lewis oh that is not a good kick that's not even
37:43going to
37:43reach halfway collected by gildar gildar might slip away he's over the sideline ball's knocked on
37:50well that was a comedy of errors but it shows the strength of the wind when mikey lewis cannot kick
37:55it 10 yards downfield yeah and what it is doing you combine that with a bit of pressure and hull
38:02fc
38:02who've had some success and have gained a little bit of confidence in part down to efforts like this tom
38:07brisco
38:09streaking through the backfield and talk about contact balance and that offload to the supporting
38:14logan moi was pretty good too penalty off the back of that and now they here are again in full
38:20flight
38:20well lytton carries how they'd love a score before the break here
38:27laid law hangs on to this one
38:31mincella just picked his pocket a couple of moments ago john asiata finds caesar ball over the top chance
38:37brisco going for the corner he's in tom brisco scores brilliant try from brisco lovely ball over the top from
38:47caesar and the robins are sliced open brisco gives life to hull fc and john cartwright they're back within six
38:56do you know it's so impressive because brisco has done really well shown every bit of his experience
39:02to keep his shape to give caesar that option and you'll see on the on the wider replay just how
39:09detached he appears from the attacking line but he needed to be brisco
39:14to give caesar the out to give him the opportunity and you look at the distance he's had to travel
39:20there but it's burgess who's come flying in he waits till the last minute to step on the inside of
39:26broadbent rides the attempted tackle of jez lit on the inside oh boy we've seen him do that in a
39:34lead
39:34shirt and a hull shirt for many many years tom brisco and that is a really important score for the
39:40visitors
39:41and it franks the form of the last 10 minutes where they've crept and fought their way back into this
39:46game oh look at him celebrating as well that's outstanding i had been thinking you know that
39:54they could almost do with switching uh hardacre and caesar getting hardacre as your first receiver
40:00getting caesar as your as your ball player in a bit more space well caesar's just completely short
40:05circuit the entire lot by going straight over the top to brisco and hardacre add the extras the crowd
40:13behind him will tell us sends it on the way looks pretty good it is pretty good 10 points to
40:21six those
40:22lucky enough to have a ticket in black and white today they're on their feet their team really coming
40:28back into this and they come into the game on the back of a wonderful try from brisco look how
40:34wide
40:34he is look how detached he is and he needed to be exactly where he was the left edge for
40:41once for
40:41the robins has been caught short has been out fought by aiden caesar and brisco gets the robins back into
40:49the
40:50game i want it's a really timely score as well just in the lead up to half time certainly is
40:57still time for another
41:01first of a triple header on sky sports today from the super league
41:06st helen's wigan and bradford leads all to come across good friday as here goes moy
41:14moy's tackle will play it now here goes sean asiata gets the ball away finds lytton lytton bumps off
41:22hiku still going 20 out there's time for one last attacking chance hard acre surely gonna send it
41:31high it looks too deep it looks too deep and it is too deep and that just lets the pressure
41:38off right at
41:39the end of what's been a pulsating opening 40 minutes yeah and it just goes to further underline
41:44you know what hull fc are gonna have to face in this second half defensively and what hull
41:49kr have got to manage from an offensive kicking point of view and that is a
41:53a really significant breeze that is moving right to left as we look at our uh tv screens now
41:59be interested whether hull kr use that breeze more with their kicking game in the second half here's may
42:05could well be the last tackle of the half well they're going to throw it wide hiku gets it
42:10he runs at lytton the siren goes in the background what a first 40 minutes to kick off rivals round
42:19it all
42:19started rosy for the red and whites tries for broadbent and gildart gifted them a 10 point lead after
42:26some early ul heras but the introduction of sam lasoni just gave the black and whites a bit of impetus
42:33they're having a huddle as they leave the field here it's all to play for in the second half half
42:40time here at soul group craven park it's hulkinson rovers 10 hul fc 6. mark john thank you very much
42:48yes they led 10 nil hulkinson rovers after a very good start quite the opposite for a hull fc
42:53but the robins could just not get away from their arch rivals in this the 250th hull derby we will
43:01discuss what we've just seen in the company of sam tompkins and john wilkin after this broadbent and
43:07this from oliver gildart for hull kr but that all-important tom brisco try has hull fc right back
43:13in this all this fans and there's craig franklin former chief operating officer here looks nervous
43:22doesn't he he does he's got to do it with with the fans now
