I think one key thing from the fans' perspective is that it was good to watch, and not just when we were 40-odd points ahead, the attack looked very sharp early in the game. Like others, we came off buzzing from the simple fact of being completely entertained for the first time in god knows when.

It looks like the attacking style we were promised in the off-season has finally arrived, and that's great because most of us had given up on it ever happening.

Also, kudos to the club for installing a big screen that you can actually see from the South Stand.

Great rugby in both scores and defence. The cheers were as almost as good when down to 12 they tackled out a set as when a try was scored. A massive effort not to concede when down to 12 and it was penalty, penalty, scrum all going against us.
Showed the effort and will to win.

Agree 100%.
Great after the game in the pub where we all said how much we enjoyed it.
We seemed full of energy and the players gave it all throughout the 80 minutes.
Special mentions for Bullock & Partington for me but every player played well.

I thought Sam Powell played well, I’ve been one of his biggest critics but he’s seems to have pulled his socks up. Navarette seems to be running hard too as do the rest of the forwards but we will get mullered by the Saints front row next week if Flower and Clubb are out. We desperately need another 2 props ASAP.

It was a good all round performance and we needed to give someone a good hiding to boost confidence.

We were good but KR were bad, they never looked up for it all game. Who did impress me for KR was Josh Drinkwater, if we could sign him to play alongside Hastings we would be very dangerous.

I doubt we will go for drinkwater as he was available last season but left catalans for HKR

who says we werent in for him? he says he chose KR because of Tim Sheens. However, if KR are still scrapping for survival and dont show that are a team with a decent future, he could be tempted to move.

I think his wage demands ruled him out of a move to us. He was after marquee money and held out for it.

When it didn’t come he was left with not many options other than KR if he wanted to play top flight rugby.

Don't rate Drinkwater at all - below average player who wouldn't have improved us.

Besides I think Leuluai has been one of our best this year. Plus I don't think he's missed a game (if he has it will only be the odd one or two).

Drinkwater has had a 4 month purple patch with Catalans in his career. He’s struggled this year and the HKR fans have been on his case.

Rather stick with Leuluai, give Sammut the shirt or even throw Harry Smith in tbh.

what has Tommy said about 2020? He's due to go into the backroom for next season isnt he?
So long as Harry Smith is ready to step up next year and cover Hastings and Sammut - no need to hold him back

Wasn't impressed with Drinkwater at all. Tommy was way better.

I'd be very happy for Tommy to go round again. His kicking has always been awful but I love the rest of his game.
