The planning application was rescinded due to Health and safety reasons. The residents of East Hull who have used bouncy castles in the past landed on their heads causing severe brain damage a la HullKR21.

It's funny how excited some Rovers fans are getting after a couple of decent wins. We are a work in progress, there is plenty to be positive about, but realistically I don't think we will be able to mount a true challenge until next season, maybe even the season after that once Smith has the squad he wants and has had time to really instill the culture and the ideas he wants.

And yet, despite my tempered expectations, I'm still pretty certain we will finish above Rovers when all is said and done. They've got some good players, but a fair few plodders too, and they have no squad depth. When we are into May/June and the injuries are racking up and the games are coming thick and fast they will drop like a stone.

Think HullKR21 has been sniffing too many Lambrini screw caps

It wouldn't surprise me if Hullkr21 and Thetalentboy were the same person, both trying there hardest to wind you lot up.

I thought we did quite well making metres on Friday , Especially coming away from our own line .

I thought Vete had moved on !!

SL is, in my often-stated opinion, a stale ‘product’. You don’t need Tarquin’s barometer, just look at the table for any of the previous seasons and you’d likely have a pretty good guide to the year ahead. It is extraordinarily hard to get excited about mounting a true challenge this side of ecological catastrophe and the end of modern civilization.

That said, it is at least refreshing in the narrower context of Hull KR to have coaches talking both retrospectively and prospectively about winning games. It has been some time (2017 season in the Championship, aside). We’ve been so flaming diffident. In fairness to previous coaches they’ve not had the stability or resources (I’m not buying all this richest club nonsense, btw… we’ve got some high calibre people on board but I’ve seen little meaningful indication, so far, that we’re now rich, never mind richest) that we seem to have now.

I think we look pretty good for depth this year, and it is the first time since Morgan that it feels like we haven’t had to choose between having a little bit of quality and a little bit of depth.

Wouldn't be certain about finishing above anyone apart from wakey and leigh

Close league this season could easily finish anywhere from 4th to 9th

Not convinced our defence is good enough for us to challenge still leaking alot of soft tries

Funny how people disagreed with what I said but most of what I say is spot on

Said Connor is over rated for ages.... everyone suddenly says similar when he left

Said Houghton is very limited and not good enough...guess what alot of fans now saying it

Also said mcintosh shouldn't play and Mitch should .....and yep people saying that aswell

How long is McIntosh's contract ?

Think he was signed on a 3 year

Your a tool who doesn't explain anything ever

Your clearly Just one of the muppets who can't have no wrong and throw sweets to the players last 3 years at end of a tonking

Instead of saying how it is

Met Justin Morgan in the Rovers 10-5 bar after the Rovers v Catalan match on a Sunday afternoon in June 2010 after attending the Hull v Saints match the previous Friday evening. Had a lovely chat with him as I had watched him playing in the NRL for many years including his GF loss with the Warriors in 2002 against the Roosters in their only appearance in a GF.
The man of the match for the Roosters that day was Craig Fitzgibbon who captained Hull in their win against Saints a couple of days previously - details of which I posted today on another Hull thread! Evidently the two were good friends.

Surprised Morgan has not had a men's head coaching role since his 50 plus match winning rate at Hull KR.
