Catalans Dragons 31-16 Hull FC

 The Dragons have won the McNamara derby with a nervy win over plucky Hull FC over the weekend. 

After defeat at St Helens, this one was important to win ahead of a trip to bogey side Warrington. 

Despite throwing an interception, Sam Tomkins was instrumental in our finishing the game strongly. 

With a reduced pre-season involving less contact being highlighted as a possible cause of fitness dropping off during the season, its so far so good for the conditioners and coaching team. 

The over-riding image of the match will be of Dad Steve consoling son Ben after the final hooter.
