Season review
[edit]On 13 February, Hull began their Super League campaign with a 16–12 away win at Wakefield Trinity[1] before suffering a 38–6 loss to St Helens.[2] An inconsistent first half of the season ensued with a win over Salford Red Devils[3] and loss at Castleford Tigers[4] followed by a run of three wins which included a Challenge Cup victory over Sheffield Eagles.[5][6][7] A run of three losses followed, beginning with a golden point 19–18 loss to Wigan Warriors in the league,[8] a quarter-final cup defeat to Huddersfield Giants[9] and a visit to local rivals Hull Kingston Rovers,[10] but this was countered by three more wins in late April.[11] Hull had a poor second half of the season, failing to win during June and with only two wins in July; a 34–28 win against Hull KR at the Magic Weekend,[12] and 30–6 win over Toulouse Olympique.[13] In August, Hull had a run of four defeats before again facing Toulouse to record a 28–12 win[14] and then ended their season with a 36–4 loss to Hull KR.[15]
