Great performance by the lads today. To be fair Hull never really offered anything, but our execution was superb. I predicted that Sims was going to be huge for us, and from today's showing I (for once) could be right. Super Ben looks like he's got his appetite back after a quiet season last year, Clarke showed flashes of brilliance and Gaz O'Brian was outstanding. Kev Penny's try in the first half was a thing of beauty, straight from a Hull kick off, fielded by O'Brian who put a superbly timed ball out to Penny, who did a 80 metre dash to line. Things are looking promising chaps.

Westwood was a penalty machine in the first half.

Gave a few away, but Bentham was poor IMHO, too nit picky when it came to pulling us up. BTW, how cool was that shirt from Today, so much better than our home and away for this year.

2 friendly games without conceding a point..fair to say not the greatest of opponents but keeping clean sheets is very impressive no matter what level or who you play...lets hope this continues this season..

For obvious reason Bridgey quire rightly got MOM. But Bridgey aside who would you have given the MOM to.
All played well but for me Richie Myler deserved it, his kicking was good as was his distribution & his tacking was 1st class

Yes liked that shirt a lot.

no offence, but stop calling them hull, its rovers lol

Thought we were brilliant, ref was so shocking. Hull kr didn't trouble us at all. Westwood did Ok just too slow getting off the tackle. Sims, clark, Myler and O'brien were class and hill was his usual self and penny didn't really put a foot wrong

Toulouse would've been a better match up today. Thought Hull KR would be a team to watch this year but on this showing they've got a long way to go. Result was never in danger. Clark went well on his debut, Penny impressed me apart from flying out of his line once and missing the man completely. Credit to the Toulouse and Hull KR fans who made the journey and made a decent amount of noise. I certainly wouldn't have bothered going all the way to Hull for a friendly, and I'm assuming there was some sort of junior club trip with Toulouse as there was a superb turnout from the frogs.

Ok, so it's a preseason game and we can't read too much into it but our halfbacks today were outstanding including a great kicking game from both of them. The pack were all good and a great credit to Anthony England who backed up from 60 minutes or so v Toulouse to play another 20 in the second game. Also, I suspect Kev Penny may have nailed a starting spot v Salford. excellent in attack and defence and made great yards with almost every drive as well as two scorching tries.

The season hasn't even kicked off yet and I'm already bored of the ref bashing. Offside!

Wasn't bothered with the offsides today just a very weak ref who would give pens because the opposition asked for one

Agree with these posts.

Think only Penny in our current squad could have scored those tries.
But from memory think he ran out of the line ( & missed any attacker ) more than once.

Definafely ahead of Ormsby in the ranking, who got run over by his opponent, acceptable if we were playing AUS / NZ - but Tolouse come on !.
Ormsby never beat a man in the 60 mins I saw.

Big Roy - hits hard but is just too old / slow ?

Felt for Russell. Accidental knock to face & obviously in discomfort again ~ 4 months on !
All caused by Widnes cheap stot T***er who could of pulled out.

I watched the second half of the Toulouse game and Ormsby was poor for me, shot out of the line a few times and just got bulldozed by Minga who was a beast tbf.
I was disappointed with KR as I expected a much tougher game, Campese was anonymous, the forwards left a lot to be desired and the hooker was useless. I dont think Sio touched the ball as far as I could make out and Dixon was probably their best player and all he did was defend.

Still wasn't a penalty though...

The one thing I would say about Penny is, although I'd like to see him in against Salford and Hull it probably isn't a very good idea to put him in v St. George. He has improved but there are still defensive frailties and we'd be better off bringing Bridgey back in for then if he's fit.
