I agree, still a player who doesn't really get mentioned at all can't have been "excellent".....even if the commentators are a bit clumsy.

why? the commentators were a joke. talking amongst themselves most of the time. it was mainly rovers they spoke about too, even when leeds had the ball

What do you call excellent though? The player scoring a try? Or a player providing links and non stop tackling? Are they not equally important to a team?

I am not saying others that went will agree with my opinion. But you have to accept that a radio summarisor misses off links in play, and does not name the tacklers doing the defence, unless it is a try saved or something. Unless this particular summarisor was somehow different to the rest.

Ward didn't make any major errors, nor did he do anything spectacular, that would suggest he's had an average performance, but given the fact I've stood there for 80 mins and noticed him possibly 3 times at most should tell you he was below average, ward wasn't the only one in my opinion that just rode the game so to speak but I'd prefer he doesn't get picked for widness next week, not when there's players again only in my option bring more to the table and bring more energy.

As a whole getting the win is a massive result considering how we went down, the last thing I expected when setting off to hull this morning was to concede 30 points, I also wasn't expecting to score 40 though, we look good with the ball but without it we were terrible in periods, hull made far too many breaks, I think they'll do very well this season if they get a lot of ball.

I listened to game on radio and heard cuthbertson mentioned alot making off loads too which bodes well i hope.can anyone at the game summaries his performance please

A bit how I see it. Whilst disappointing to concede 30 I think really the 30-40 scoreline says more about HKR's upcoming season than ours. They'll score points but they'll concede quite a few too.

How did cuthbertson get on?

Not to the level he looked in preseason. But did look a very good go to with ball, very unpredictable. Did appear to miss a couple of key tackles though.

Really we've got 13 new players so will gel over time and only improve. Leeds however are a team that knows each other really really well. Lets not forget Dixon dropped a ball over the line which should really have been a try, That would have gave us a 20pt lead which Leeds may not of recovered from. Also Kelly was brought back and given a penalty when he was odds on to score, On another day advantage is called and Rovers score again.

Errrrmmmm pretty sure he was about to get tackled when he realised there was no advantage

Minimum would have been a penalty and a sin binning. He'd just chipped ahead of the Leeds player despite him pulling him back by his shirt collar when he'd already kicked the ball ahead.

Never put a foot wrong.

Why not - depends whether his contribution is what commentators talk about i.e. Watkins or hard graft such as a top defender. If Ward made 30 tackles no misses - not saying that is the case - but doesn't hardly get a mention does that makes his contribution any less valid than a player who makes two breaks?

For what its worth I never heard JJB's named mentioned and the only Sinfield got mentioned was the interception try and the goal kicking does that mean both had poor games?

As I didn't attend so I take your comments at face value - letting 30 points is never good no matter who the opposition. It sounded like Hull KR ran out of steam, good job or Leeds would have struggled to get back in from so far behind.

I didn't hear JJB's name mentioned much or Peacock's actually, Sinfield's a bit more......but nobody is describing them as excellent now are they.

To be honest the commentary, whilst not amazing, wasn't nowhere near as bad as other efforts I've heard or anywhere near as poor as is being made out on here.
