When does your start?

youve had a couple of good seasons after decades in the wilderness and suddenly your kings of the hill

Justin Morgan has done the right thing left a sinking Ship!!

the thing is when you have a sugar daddy they can always leave which huddersfield will find out next year nothing lasts forever so enjoy it while it lasts

Of all the nonsense spouted on the thread, this takes the biscuit.

First of all, Morgan never 'left' but was effectively sacked.

Was it the right decision? Time will tell, but Craig Sandercock has created an excellent impression in a short space of time and you would struggle to find a Hull KR fan who doesn't think this is the strongest squad the club have had in Super League, particularly after last weekend's resounding friendly win vs Hull FC.

The likes of Shannon McDonnell, Lincoln Withers and the brilliant Mickey Paea are clearly a huge step up on ageing stalwarts like Shaun Briscoe, Ben Fisher and Mick Vella.

David Hodgson is more reliable than the erratic Peter Fox, while the exciting Con Mika looks a more than adequate replacement for Clint Newton who was largely disappointing last year.

Throw in a completely rejuvenated duo of Joel Clinton and Craig Hall, a fit-again Micheal Dobson and the ever-burgeoning talent of youngsters Josh Hodgson, Jordan Cox, Liam Watts and the outstanding Scott Taylor, and Rovers should improve significantly this year, even without the damaging losses of Blake Green and Ben Galea.

Hull Netural i have got you down for a challenge cup Semi at least and finnishing round about 8th maybe 7th,but things wont happen overnight thats all i am saying.

Mark the OP does this on every super league team and he is not usually far off the money on his assesment of most super league teams!!

always answer a question with a question or ignore the question or if in doubt just say youve spent miles over your cap just hidden it well thats why your better than us

Are you including the 3 that you've signed from other clubs who have been around for some time (players that you didn't develop at all)? As I presume that the 11 overseas players haven't been brought in to sit in the stand, if you include those 3 as well it only leaves you room for 3 more. Not quite half the side if my maths are right. HKR will do what they always do, a relatively bright first few games, then they'll fall back and finish off another mediocre season in about 9th place.

I think 7th or 8th is a fair assesment given the devastating loss of Blake Green, but there is absolutely no way they Rovers will be scrapping it out in 11th or 12 place as the OP suggested.

What is already evident is that there is an entirely different culture at the club.

Rovers developed a soft underbelly in the last two seasons under Morgan but with a bigger, more robust pack and better competition for places, that won't be the case this year.

Never ceases to amaze me that every season fans of the 'smaller' teams start getting insulted when they are predicted to worse than they expect. They all seem to think that they will be the 'surprise package' of the new season, and justifying this by the fact they have signed a few players. What always seems to be forgotten is the fact nearly every other team strengthens too, not everyone can make the top 8. It's not as bad in this thread but it annoys me when fans act outraged if their team who year on year struggles to make an impact is predicted to do the same the next year.

What is with the Rovers fans on this thread? of all the teams we've reviewed its the Dull KR fans who are throwing girly tantrums...

Interesting. How has the culture change become evident?

Un-beaten in Super league under the new coach - evidence enough I'd say.
