You must have missed those booming up and unders, and his superb field kicking gaining much more meters than any other place kicker we have, giving us countless opportunities which we squandered deep in rovers territory, also his attacking kicking game across their line, a couple of matches into his season, after a real nasty fracture of his leg/ankle.

and if that's your overpaid near starting 13 you would have been better playing your reserves ,

you've had your day in the sun, you better get back to worrying if there will be another derby next year,

A few observations on last night just to get them off my chest.
A dramatic occasion being a Derby and in that weather but probably one of the poorest quality games of rugby I can remember seeing. If I see another game where all the tries are so scrambled and scrappy I will lose interest.
We were poor and Rovers slightly less so, so the best team won.
He was not the reason we lost but Hewer was poor. I do not watch Rovers so do not know anything about about Jewitt but what a cheap thug. At least a couple of late, off the ball tackles which along with the crusher tackle on Griffin and Tickle's charge in to Taylor's back when he was held should be reviewed by the disciplinary committee. If not then a few fellow professionals should give Tickle a good talking to down a dark alley because that was simply dangerous. I like Tickle from his time at Hull but that was poor. When Hewer called Scruton over for his second high tackle he seemed to give him a one word telling off - comical.
Wet slippery conditions so for god's sake why don't players carry the ball in two hands? Our ball control was pathetic and probably cost us the game. We made good yards and in the first half at least barely finished a set.
Our creativity in attack in the absence of Kelly and Connor is non existent. This is not a criticism of Sneyd who does a different job.
I would be happier with Crooks and Hall in our squad than some of the youngsters we have persisted with who I do not think will make the grade - not as regular first teamers but good back up squad members.
We are on a poor run but I am glad I am not a Leeds fan.
How does an 80 minute game last 2 hrs and 10 minutes?
The roof leaks above my seat in the West Stand!

So will Adam Pearson, after all, you’ve made a loss this year or are on to if I’m not mistaken?

So true, he must be loving it, God rest his rlfans soul.

I don't pretend to know if we are or not, last nights gate wont do us any harm,

… £500k for the aussie trip, allegedly.

I would like to see him and Atkin together behind a big Rovers pack in the coming years.

Been barking up that tree for a while, especially when Shaul was playing absolutely shiiiite first half of the season. Can't see him ever being dropped tbh.

The Tickle hit on Taylor was really cheap. Nothing illegal about it of course, but I still dont like to players flying in on a defenceless player like that, especially in the back. Pretty cowardly and potentially dangerous. When you consider some of the really cheap penalties that are awarded for marginal high tackles, maybe they should be penalised aswell.

Connor is our best player (imo) and we need to get him in the team. Shaul is the weak link out of the positions Connor can play. People are crying out for some pace out wide. The obvious answer is Connor at 1 and Shaul at 5 isn't it?
