Everybody had a pretty good game.

Everybody around me was nodding approvingly whenever Connor Ogilvie was anywhere near the ball.

Regan Poole was inch perfect.

Our full-backs had a great game, both defending and going forward.

And in midfield, there's nothing left to be said about Marlon Pack.

And Adams, they are fantastic in front of the back four and going forward as well.

Pack encourages Adams to go forward more than he does.

And when Adams goes forward, he wins so many 50-50s.

He wins some 60-40s.

He's the 40.

You wouldn't want to be tussling with him.

I spoke to somebody at the game who said that he'd had a chat with Adams and what a lovely bloke he is, but how he is not in any way intimidating off the pitch.

He is soft spoken and not as big as he looks on the pitch.

That's what this person's main point was, because he does look like a unit.

And we'll come back to units again because Hull had a number of units.

Again, they were a big side.

They had plenty of skill.

Not as much as us, actually.

Their best department was their fullbacks.

We had Blair on the right and we had Ali on the left.
