Quote: craig hkr "Cheers. We are hoping Hauraki does what Tickle did and exceed expectation.Think most Rovers fans think we have been bit small overall in the pack and also a little too nice as a team since Newton ran the pack. Hauraki should/could be what we need as long as daft penalties are cut out? Lannon ,Jewitt, Thompson(maybe)Hauraki plus likes of Tomkins Greenwood and Masoe and Mulhern and it looks far more formidable imo. Kav Clarkson Donno were 100% types,particularly Donno but no room for sentiments and a problem that has been obvious since Morgan left is finally being sorted it seems'"
I thought Sandercock sorted our pack out and under him in his last season, we had on paper a big pack with the likes of Taylor, Weyman, Poore and Walker in the front row along with Costigan in the back row. The problem we had was that we never replaced Dobson and had to put up with Kris Keating and Travis Burns. We seemed to have no problem rolling down the field but couldn't score when we got to the oppositions line and of course our defense was poor.
