..

your proball'y right.but not bad is it..top of the league (until sunday)..for one of the worst saints teams in history..the other lot must be even more dire then!..

Think you may have been on the Jack Daniels when you thought that FC will win 2 games in the super 7s (and FC).

They'll win more than rovers will in the super 8's though

Stats from last night make interesting reading. burke and walker both made less carries than mose masoe and the only forward with carries into double figures was mccarthy. Well done to puletua though who was the only player in your team not to miss a tackle

Absolutely dead right. The quality of the league as a whole has diminished over the years. Is there one player in that starting line up last night that would of got in to, say, the saints team of 2006. Probably not i'd say.

Even if we had a full team out we would not have won we do not have props big enough when they brought on the big guy we were beat and had no chance we need big props that will have a go

Not necessarily

Walmsley probably would have got a bench spot. The problem with HKR is stability, they always seem to change half the team on an annual basis, most of the successful teams only bring about 2 or 3 players in, you also always seem to have a purple patch in the season, have a few injuries exposing your strength in depth, once you go beyond your 17 then consistency free falls.
Best of luck for next week.

Completely agree about stability

I will give you a name TRAVIS BURNS we brought him in & he left (not rovers choice) ripped us to pieces last night. Blake Green to Wigan, Scott Taylor brought him to the first team & left for Wigan, Beaumont left for saints & the list goes on, Chester can't be blamed if we have to rebuild time & time again, We can't just pluck big props from thin air they just arn't there. We have the makings of a team that will compete with just a few minor adjustments & a bit of luck with injuies. I for one am happier this year with some of the rugby we have seen than te last 4/5 years. We are not the only team this year that has taken a beating & tere will be a few more handed out befor the end of the season.

Last nights prop quartet were easily big enough for Super League. Its fight, aggression, motivation & technique they lacked (apart from TP).
