What I would be most worried about is the amount of times Rovers concede 30+. Rovers can score points but this poor defence issue is there for all to see and yet week in week out nothing changes. Is it fitness, self belief, coaching?
Maybe it's to early to talk about must win games? However it is going to do nothing for confidence if Rovers loose at Salford, and confidence looks low already. Saints and Bradford fill 6th and 7th spot at the moment, the Bulls are looking better and better with each game, who else can you see Rovers catching out of the 8? Its a big, big game against Salford, loose and the pressure will be on the coach and surely that brings more pressure to the players on the pitch which wont help.

Quote: pmarrow "I think Rovers biggest problem is there fitness, they looked like a championship team in the last 20 minutes on Friday. We forced a drop out and all the Hull players had taken position and the Rovers players we're blowing and finding it hard to pick themselves back up to defend a set of 6. I think even when we had the game won we had moved to set a scrum before Rovers had even formed it. Admittedly I have not seen Rovers on a regular basis this season so am unsure as to whether this was due to a game plan enforced by Hull or Rovers are just not fit enough. Maybe doing too much in training ?'"


Our fitness or lack of, isn't why we're where we are, or indeed why you frepped us. You're doing us a favour suggesting it's as simple as that. Our 2nd half performances have been nothing short of rubbish for most of the season. Hell, this even pre dates Sandy. But, just like Sandy - I don't have any reason for this.

You're right tho' - even when the difference was 8 pts (? I forget) - you formed two scrums in your own 20 before we did.
This spoke volumes about our enthusiasm and why (apart from being skill frepped) we came up a long way short.

One thing I noticed about KR when I have seen them on the TV ect is that you seem to get into promising postions and then drop the ball and give posession away.

I think it mainly is a fitness thing, your right it pre dates CS because I dont think we was that fit under Morgan for the last couple of years he was in charge. Fitness wise we are not in the same league as the top 5 clubs.

Couldn't understand why you didn't go for a short kick off when we scored our 3rd and 4th tries (and 5th and 6th)

You were doing fine scoring from your own 20, we did not want to make it easy for you icon_wink.gif

Regards the fitness, I have said before on both forums in the last couple of years that we were following a similar pattern to when Mallinson was at hull and got shot down. The irony is I felt we looked fitter than last year but our inexperience at times is giving daft penalties away then we seem to sulk for 10-15 mins and as a result ship 18 points.

I still believe that we will be ok and our defence in the middle is better than last year, its out wide were we are struggling, mainly down to poor reads.
