No one can be that depressed? Jesus your champions and that was your 1st loss.
You have too many injuries. Though we had 2 fit props tonight against your giant pack. Our coach had a good game plan and moved you about and avoided front on contact as much as possible.
Masoe couldn't run when he was taken off exhausted.
Welcome to Burn's world....all about him. All the energy skill and bravery. No brain.
Campese is a far better player and person. Burns will annoy your squad.
Kelly is fantastic.
More Saddened! They are like an Hull fc fan in a Saints shirt.'"
I quite like Hull. I think they will smash you next week.

| Hull KR are quite spectactular in the same breath we are amateurish, if you look at it with a glass half full look, I've never seen a team break from defence to attack in devastating fashion as tonight, there isn't another team in SL who break/score tries look ourselves.
Yet, there isn't another team in SL who defend so poorly at times, and/or make horrendous mistakes, Dixon knock on from a bomb, the 'defence' for Makinson's try.
However, these are glaring errors, which can easily be fixed with a bit of game management and know how. If we invested in 1 or 2 good forwards, am I that biased into suggesting Rovers are the real deal?
Looking at Saints, I've never seen anyone else in the comp make the likes of Walmsley and LMS look scared in every hit-up. James Green and Adam Walker were brilliant, if anyone really dares to suggest Green's shoulder was a sending off then we might aswell pack up now as the sport would be going the same way as Wendyball.
This is the first thread i've come onto tonight, but no-ones mentioned the 2 hideous forward passes that nearly took away an unbelievably entertaining, albeit weird, game. Guys, we have RL 'officials' that miss American Football esque passes that can cost games, jobs, the interest of a neutral fan, (imagine watching RL for the first time tonight, for 73mins you'd be glued..only to think it was farcical in the last few mins) the difference between promotion and relegation etc etc.
And FWIW, Saints v Wigan next week, even though they are hardly firing, is a shoe-in for a Wigan win. Stranger things have happened though..

| We let our determination slip, forgot the basics and made a ton of errors. Hull KR scraped home by the skin of their teeth.
I can't recall too many matches in which the opposition were more dangerous INVITING us to ATTACK THEM.
It's understandable some are a bit frustrated. It is embarrassing losing to Hull KR.

You spend a lot of time with a red face then. Don't beat us too often do you.
Did we beat you twice or three times last season?

47035_1386433761.gif We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

| Wow I thought it was just other clubs that go off the deep end after a loss.
That loss tonight is just that a loss. We lose there every year. Nothing special about it. We've lost there with very good backs in the side like Gidley.
It's a close league so lets just take the loss and move on.

It would help if perhaps the forwards were coached to offload the ball on occasion, providing that someone would be there to accept a pass. Regardless of two stupid errors by our halfbacks, our hopes of winning went when Roby retired. Without him there is no direction.

I'm not to confident next week. Sure we might get better of them in the pack but our attack is well off at moment. We been riding our luck and last night it ran out.

Im not confident either, with possibly Roby, Walsh, Burns, Lomax and Percival all out its no doubt our attack is a little toothless. They're all our strike players.
If Burns does have a facial fracture and Roby's concussion rules shim out, we're knackered

| Talk about knee jerk. This time yesterday it was just a case of how many we'd beat Wigan by. Today thanks to 2 freakish intercept tries and Wigan beating a Wakefield squad struggling to get 17 fit bodies on the pitch and the doom and gloom begins.
We were poor yes, but hardly disgraceful. Let's put it down as a one off and get fully behind the lads next week!!

I think we should create a "Gary Wheeler of the Message Board" award, the slightest crack in performance and the knee jerk goes into overdrive.
We do have 2 consistent performers and are way out in front at the moment for this award.

| Quote: Saddened! "We didn't deserve a thing from that. Burns's pass was 5m forward and Wilkin's was pretty debatable too.
Where do you start tonight? You start by saying Hull KR are shocking. Defensively woeful, their wingers and fullback can't deal with any bombs and their back row and centres could tackle a bowl of Weetabix. They didn't even have a pack on the field tonight, Green was about their only forward and he spent the game charging round committing fouls.
The backs tonight were shocking. I've never seen a half back showing as bad in years, and that's saying something given how we've set for half backs. Neither of them did anything good tonight and they gave that game away with some incredibly naive, stupid, lazy ball play. Saints got the ball into their 10 repeatedly and didn't threaten the line once in that position. It was just a lazy, scripted swing one way or the other with a lazy pass to the first player. Burns's defending is also a massive concern, he can smash second rowers but he drops off other players and just doesn't read anything properly. He's cost us several tries already this season. Swift shouldn't be playing for us for a long time, not until he's proven he can play in the youth team for an extended period. Turner/Jones/Dawson did nothing wrong, but nothing right either.
The pack didn't do enough either. They had a clear advantage and didn't capitalise on it. WTF was Cunningham playing at with his use of Mose? With his size against that pack from Hull KR, he should have been doing 60 minutes, not 8 in the first and 8 in the second. Every time he got the ball in the second half he got 15 metres plus, why not have him crashing onto the ball near their line? We were always going to lose our unbeaten record, I had thought it may be next week however. Tonight was unacceptable, the kind of performance that can ruin a side's confidence. If we'd gone in tonight and played it all through the middle and been more professional and clinical near their line early on and we'd have walked it tonight by 20 plus.'"
I can't work out if this whole post is bitter or idiotic?
To come on here and slate our team shows how much rl knowledge you have our whole team have a shed load of rugby league pedigry and it was always going to take 6-7 games for us to start to gel

Anyone would think you were a sore loser.
Did you notice the blatent shoulder charge to the face that did not even get a yellow???
We can all pick out bad ref decisions.
The first one not to at least bin the player has just as big an effect as not calling 2 forwards.
There are a few headless chickens on here, but the Sad one is generally like this frequently.
