Moxi 1 quote " I'm not saying we'll go up, but I do believe we'll top the regular season without getting out of second gear. Sadly, the season starts come the 8s. "

A couple of injuries and your second gear will not be good enough.
Is your 'high horse called 'over confidence', as many of those have fallen when trying to jump too many fences within the course of a season.
I am not saying (but praying) Fax will win.
And as the saying goes "be careful of what you wish for"

I feel bad for Hull KR fans because their team got promoted the right way and their club grew slowly and earned their place in SL. Getting relegated could be a disaster for them as the bottom end of SL has strengthened and I just cant see Hull KR getting back in there and then year on year they will get weaker as the money dries up. Then you need the people with deep pockets.

Salford trio Wood,Bibby and Lannon are drafted in.Ambler,Worrincy and Johnston dropped.Ben made two many mistakes,Robb was caught asleep last week to be fair.

Always had respect for HKR and I posted similar thoughts about the problems that are ahead in being able to get out of the Championship.
What Leigh did was a fantastic achievement so it's possible.
There is talk of a return to some kind of revamped licensing and promotion and relegation if the club earns it on the field and ticks the boxes of the field again so maybe they could do it that way.

New proposed, Emperors new clothes, whatever it may be I'm sure it will once again be swayed towards the current incumbents, KR went down and Leigh are now eating at the top table, do you think they will want anything made easier for another club to be promoted?

If it comes down to 1 up 1 down and whoever tops the Championship ticks all the criteria boxes which HKR do then they will go up regardless.

The only box to tick should be coming top of the table. Owt else is just balls!

That rule will only be invoked if and when either Toronto or Toulouse top the table. If we are to get back I reckon it'll be the hard way.

Had a strange season so far. Bulls were underdone, London looked light but we allowed Rochdale to give us a game. The rest have been light years away. I'm expecting, fax and fev to be bigger challenges which is what we need. No way a foregone conclusion tomorrow

Facts are facts. The RFL would like Toulouse and Toronto in $uper£eagu€ along with Catalans and maybe a US team - who knows? So that leaves 8 UK teams. You can't see Leeds, Wigan, Saints disappearing from the top flight. So that leaves 5 places. Your Widneses, Salfords, Rervers, Shuddersfields, Leighs, Trinities, Cas Vegases and the like will be looking over their shoulders. Fax, Sheffield and Fev just have a few games against ex-$uper£eagu€ sides to which to look forward.

THe "rule" as you call it is definitely on the table and the reason why is because Wigan and other "big" clubs are saying their crowds are down because of the middle 8 structure and we all know the RFL like to keep the big boys happy.
Either of the two T's aren't exactly going to pack em in and the crowds will be down even more contradicting the reason for the change in the first place.

In any case all clubs including HKR in a 1 up 1 down scenario will simply have to beat off the competition including the the two T's, you ask for a sterner challenge in games so if it comes then you have your wish and Rovers will either be good enough or not.

Even if it means it was done by using DR and DR stays forever.

Big well done and good effort today against our KR side, I say it again if you play like that and cut out silly mistakes U can make the top 4 end of season. We looked lacking of direction at times made far too many errors good luck for rest of season thanks for good following

Special mention for Will Sharp. He might beat himself up over those errors (i hope he doesn't) but he had a great game today.

Feel like we might be seeing signs of the player we know he can be now he's had a run of games in a stable position

He was really dangerous, but unfortunately came up with two catestrophic errors which playing at Full Back you just can't do.

Us (Rover's) have suffered this for years.

Really looking forward to coming over to The Shay, beautiful ground. I was last there for Italy's game in the World Cup, Three Pigeons is always the destination of choice.
