We have certainly the biggest squad Hull KR have ever had in their entire history...(please feel free to check)..., this extremely over blown squad is full of SL players, in fact nearly 84% of them have played SL, and yet we have endured an absolute season of boredom and lacklustre performances..,
Mr Sheens, who co-incidentally oversaw the Australian team lose 2 four nations tournaments and is in possession of a 50% win record over his career despite having had every advantage possible, chooses to play as many props as anyone can fit into 17 players, 6 today in a loss to the admittedly world class Halifax championship side and to play safety first rugby even against teams made up entirely of players who only train every other Monday...
It has been like watching paint dry the entire season...for all his faults Justin Morgan would have had his team winning with panache by 80...
Either RL or Rovers are/is on a perennial down-slope never to exit or Sheens (and Hudgell/Crossland...the Larvin excitable/psychometric testing gurus,/Kris Keating signing/Scott Murrell disposing genius titbrains ) are wizards...discuss...

Back then 'New' Craven Park was so bleak that opposition players would retire rather than have to come back. Well that's what Phil Clarke says and he's a TV expert. Why oh why are Sheens & Hudgell ignoring this highly sucessful strategy of freezing the b*loocks off the opposition the place is like a holiday camp nowadays.
We'd barely calmed down from the excitement of the York game when that was followed up with a real points fest Hull KR 6 Fev 4, we needed our abacuses for that one. No really we did, the electronic scoreboard was still frozen in time from when it broke down just as we went into administration for 3 years.
And another thing. Floodlights what's the point of them? We got by perfectly well with candles stuck onto the pylons we brought with us from Holderness Road. Okay so it was a bit dark towards the corners.
Nobody complained when someone blew them out and the Leigh game had to be abandoned when we were losing.'"
Well said and did we not get beat by 2-0 one time and a 1-1 draw or am I getting that old now I make things up what I think I so  |

How does relativity come into it when you said most boring ever, lets see how the next 8 or 9 weeks goes then we can evaluate whether or not its been a success or a disaster |
