Correct, we have relied on our forwards and tonight it has caught up with us. Our lack of pace in the backs is worrying.

Bad 80 in all areas for the lad but if he scores the winner next week it'll all be forgotten.

Plenty of others were absent tonight, in particular Flanagan.

Don't agree at all mate. We didn't get demolished in the forwards. Territory in the first half was ridiculously in our favour. We gifted them their points.

We made a lot of uncharacteristic errors tonight. Our set completion was woeful. But our pack didn't get demolished at all.

We have plenty of pace in the backs. What we don't have is halves who bring them into play.

I don't think the pack did well enough given the size advantage and their complete lack of a bench. But it did do enough for a normal side to win the game. We just cannot do anything from inside the 10, they look lost. So far this season we've been lucky, teams have made mistakes and shot out of the line and we've strolled over several times. That didn't happen tonight. You defend your line well against Saints and you win, it's as simple as that.

If Luke Walsh is fit, he should play next week, the sooner the better. Burns needs him and can then go back to his natural game.

Demolished? Nah, I thought Rovers did well to stay in the game in the first half, the Saints forwards were gaining territory with ease, however, the halves and the backs looked like they couldn't create anything. Yes, Rovers were committed but Saints really were toothless in attack.

Other than Walmsley and Mose in his 2nd spell, none of that pack could break thru a paper bag. We busted up down the middle 3/4 times also.

I was little OTT using demolished to be fair. I think we should have really hurt them down the middle considering they have more or less all the props out.

After all, it's the best pack ever to play super league isn't it ?

I definitely expected better mate I'd agree with that.

Very poor across the board tonight.

Spot on.

Thing is our forwards are work manlike and gain ground (which they did constantly) we dont have a Sam Burgess etc.. who will make constantly make breaks and be a threat. Our forwards did there job imo. The backs need to go.

If Burns doesn't Fire we look poor in attack. We Defo need walsh back ASAP.
