Probably could've used them today

Hardaker's had a decent game in his favoured fullback position.

Is it time to admit that that Hardraker might be a good signing, played really well today and the last few games.

At good as Carlos, but cheaper, more robust, non quota and kicks goals.

Big John had some nice touches too in that 2nd spell. All 4 trys scored when he was on the field too.

maybe for you
26 nil

Hull KR quite simply the best team in SL. Brilliant performance both attack and defence. Its hot here in a terrible stadium but worth the uncomfortable seats to witness a Rovers master class.

Season not over yet but what did I say? The rugby league know ( alls) on here said rovers didn't have a good side and would achieve nothing and oh look.......... Only wigan can stop them now and that's this year, next year they'll be even better.

But it gives us optimism in a way. I watched them lose to us two years ago in Newcastle when we was coached by Hodgson and was absolutely dire yet still won so it shows how far you can come in two years with the right investment, management and forward planning

I enjoy watching a Wigan masterclass when the games really matter and you get your $ handed on a plate.So,your sat in Leeds watching your team go top and you decide to post on a fc forum…you are on sad bin dipper

Keep dreaming kiddo

Problem is Seb its not optimism we need its quality players and whats coming in falls far short of that.
Little point in keep saying lets wait until recruitment is finished because its highly unlikey the club have the ability to bring in the 3/4 quality players we need to even make us competitive next season.

So much angst. You're team are doing really well. Get the chip off your shoulder and focus on your upcoming grand final success!

Lewis adding to the list of biting spitting complaints made this season.
Now their fans causing trouble as reported my Matt Shaw.
Sorry to offend the resident dobbins on here but
They’ve no class and will fall at the final hurdle yet again.

matt shaw did not say who was causing the trouble , were you there. you wanted the the posts down yesterday after your drubbing by the part timers

Rovers are a top 4/5 team now, they are well coached, have very good players in either position and have been able to name a near full strength team in every game this year, that could be luck or they have the worlds best condition/physio team, probably a bit of both. Yesterday there were full strength I think, not one injury and I sure (may be wrong ) they have had a maximum of 3 players out for all games, it's a bit like Leigh for the majority of the season last year.

Yesterday Catalans had Tomkins, Johnstone, Abdul, McIlorum, Simms and McMeeken out (maybe a couple of others too), Wigan and Saints similar right now.

Are Rovers a good side, 100%, are they the real deal, not yet, they have to back this up with a major trophy, won't get a better chance than this season IMO, as other teams like Saints and certainly Catalans will be stronger next year. Do they have the mentally that Wigan have to peak and win those pressure games. Injuries still make have a big part to play in their season yet.

If they win the GF, we all have to accept and apologise (including myself) that they are the real deal, that remains to be seen. As Seb says, they do give hope that teams can do from the bottom to the top in a short time, they have been buildig slowly with good domestic signings, improvements in coaching and very good use of quota spots, we need to follow this model, but have another advantage of a productive line coming through, that Rovers didn't have 4 years ago.

It's up to Myler and co to get that right.

I'd just accept it now, I have done. LLS is theirs to lose as you say they are injury free and I think they are playing within themselves. This is not "Rovers fandom" - if this were any other team we'd be delighted at someone breaking the 3 club stranglehold on the title, so may as well be grown-up and magnanimous about what they achieve.

I'm completely at a loss about what FC do next. Without a new owner, significant investment and complete cultural reset we'll remain a bottom 2 club.

Looking at the fixture list, I think Wigan win the LLS.

Agree about Hull, was really positive when Myler and the rumored investment came in, recruitment started positivity including new coach, but since then, not a lot to get exited about.
