Had the fortune/misfortune of attending today as a R & W due to lad playing for skirlaugh and taking part in the pre game stuff, which was excellently organised by the way.

Thought that was one that got away for Hull, wire were pretty terrible but hull just didn’t have the game management to turn pressure into points. It was panic stations galore once you got down to wire end and no sustained period of controlled pressure. Probably doesn’t help having dwyer on for so long

Shame about trueman, hope he recovers well. He wasn’t in the game before that though. Clifford clearly a very good player, but he can’t try and solve every problem. I think the lack of a 3rd pivot out of fullback makes it too predictable

I’d be happy to be getting rid of Savelio, one flashy thing a game doesn’t make up for his lack of effort. thought the props did alright most of the game and made yards. Satae will be a big miss won’t he.

Not one of the best games I’ve seen this season and wire will be happy for the points but don’t see them troubling the top 3 come play off time either. Some work to do in recruitment for you guys and the Clifford replacement is big isn’t it

Ref wasn’t as awful as made out, but he made an absolute clanger in second half were it was offloaded to shaul and he pulled his hands away and ball hit his legs, then Kendall blows for a knock on. Terrible decision, rest was probably what you come to expect from Kendall, just pedantic

Good post that, some fellow Rovers posters could learn alot.

Before the game when I saw the teams I has Leeds at home last season vibes, thought they might beat us 30 plus points, they are a good side with some very good players and a massive pack, they bring on Kasiano and we have Brown or Gardiner.

Luckily we have some extra resolve this year. Important now we finish the season with some positivity, still got 3 winnable games.

Just depends on bodies, hopefully Sao, Houghton and Hoy back next week.

Seems like Wigan away was our GF last week
Wire had lost 7 in the spin and must have been there for the taking
Wigan are a tough team and we pushed them so close yet lose to a team , at the KC, who are very poor mentally

For me it’s a type of gallant defeat we’ve become used to

That was as much a MUST WIN as we’ve had and we failed miserably against a side that could have easily
rolled over if put under constant pressure

Oh well

Jam tomorrow

Gareth Ellis also suffered with it in a game v kr a few years ago

Shocking news about trueman,hope the lad recovers asap,it just shows how injuries affect teams.Leigh only have a small squad,but seem to have picked from the the same 18 every week,luck of the draw. I guess,nothing you can do about it,but I do think hull and rovers seem to have drawn the short straw the last few seasons.

Can't believe how well Leigh have kept there squad fit, seems there main players haven't missed a game this year.

Thibk Warrington will make the 6, good squad on paper and very heathly, wouldn't if Powell had stayed, but seemed to have improved since he was sackeded.

Rovers amd Salford to battle out for 6th.

Can't see anything but a Wigan vs Saunts GF.

They've done very well. But honestly it could come back to bite them now. They looked so fatigued on Friday from having to play their players week in week out. They don't have the luxury to rotate the squad as much as other teams, and a lack of injuries has kept them playing every week (makes it even more of a miracle they've done so wee on the injury front).
Really hope they find a bit of energy again from somewhere as I'd like to see them mount a serious challenge come the playoffs.

Just heard Dwyer is not going to Wire.

No !!! We insist you take him !!!
