Great game that could have gone either way. Both teams should be proud.

AS an aside does anyone know why Nigel Woods and Wayne Bennet were sat together watching the game from the stand at Trailfinders today?

Brisbane Broncos are over for the World Club Challenge. Either that or Wayne needs to ensure he knows how the Welsh and Scots players play.

I'm assuming Wood is Bennett's boss as the England coach. So if he is in UK you would expect him to 'report in'.

Spoke with Nigel Wood after the game. He was wearing a Sky Sports beanie, and I suggested this game was an example of why Shy should be showing the Championship

The penalty call on Kear for trying to milk a penalty was great - wish more refs would do that. However, a lot of high tackles from KR went unpunished, while ours did! This is not good; when player welfare is rightly an important issue, players shouldn't expect to have their heads taken off with impunity simply because the referee doesn't like teams from the south

What did he say to that?
I mean there was more entertainment out there today than will be seen in the entire 6 nations!

On todays form Hull KR, will not be bouncing back to Super League at the end of this season.

Good job we've got 21 more rounds to sort it out then isn't it.

He said he was trying! I do appreciate it's difficult.

If you feel there's a lot of improvement in the squad, I reckon you have a good shot. A really fast-paced game. Lunt is simply a class above

And that tells us everything. He has been moved out of SL club after SL club and finally found his level.

Andover boy, we were obviously watching different games, and you are suggesting that the ref today had something against coming south! Interesting thought, not sure what you Base that on. From where I was stood neither team were putting in any high shots. Agree with you on the trying to milk a penalty call. I do think the clampdown on moving off the mark is prioritising the wrong thing. As for 50/50 calls the double movement try was a 50/50 that went our way, the goal line drop out or 20 Mtrs re start from the ball that Dixon tried to batt dead in ball was a 50/50 call that many a touch judge might have gone the other way.
Our disallowed try called as fwd was a 50/50 that went against us. 50/50 are exactly that, how does a ref react to a 50/50 trust me it's nothing to do with any bias, if a call has to go one way or another reaction and attitude of the players can effect that.
Don't forget as well the 3 officials work as a team, the ref is a Wigan lad, one touchy lives in lindon

Outstanding players today, purtill for us lunt for KR. As expected we saw two very good teams today both playing open and exciting rugby. Pace was fast, for both teams go into rest of games like that few teams will keep up. Had we taken the 3 missed chances in the first half the game was ours, had we given away less penalties the game was ours. On the back of today I think we will have a good season.
Good to see so many in the ground, shame it was not broncos fans filling the stand. Great to see so many travelling fans from East Yorkshire

Errr no he hasn't

What a bitter statement, he gets into any match day 17 in this country and you don't have to see him play every week to know that.
