Hull FC and Warrington played out a nervy but close encounter which ultimately ended in a draw at the KCOM Stadium after both teams missed opportunities to win the game in golden point.
Here are my six talking points...
1) Drop it...
Where was the composure in golden point there? Blake Austin didn't get close with any of his attempts, I was amazed that Widdop or Ratchford didn't have a go.
2) Golden?
Golden point is rubbish. Bin it off.
3) Wingman
Jake Mamo came up with a great play today, scoring the try right at the end to rescue the game for Wire. He does have that moment of quality in his locker.
4) Unlucky thirteen
Matt Davis started at 13 today. I'm sure that it's just pulled out of a raffle who plays there each week.
5) Is anyone worried?
Another game, another terrible attacking structure. Wire are so solid in defence but never create anything.
6) A point gained
To be fair, Hull have started the season well so a draw maybe isn't a bad result.
