| Didn't see that win coming? Pack fronted up on a heavy pitch versus the biggest pack in SL. Just a huge difference in defensive attitude from last few week and bear in mind Greenwood off for 50ish min McGuire sin bin and 7 or 8 injured plus Tomkins banned. We are quick to moan when we lose but that effort today was immense and every player played their rock's off. Old fashioned RL but it's the 2 points that matter. Wakey are no mugs, but we are a better side than we've shown so far

| What a great performance,masoe,garbutt,lawler,atkins when he came on quickened it up,maguire with the winner,but for me two of our new signings linnett and drinkwater were brilliant.great win and a pleasant journey home.Hope greenwood isnt as serious as it looked,and wish jewitt would stop giving dumb penalties.

| Well done on the 2 points, was a poor poor game as a spectator but the weather was always going to play a part.

| A poor poor game as a fan if you lose it? Win it and it's all about the 2 points. No one could say it was a tryfest but it was captivating and exciting in conditions harking back to winter rugby. Tough hard slog. On paper Wakey massive pack should have had advantage throw in injuries sin bin and recent form of both sides I can't fault The Rovers today. Amazing how every KR win is due to being the better of 2 poor teams on the day?

| No a poor game in conditions that made the speed of the game almost laughable at times. Not taking anything away from KR so don’t jump down my throat.

| Sets up next week's games lovely with both Catalans and Wakey wanting to bounce back. Just hope we get good news on Greenwoods leg injury

Having a similar discussion on VT. Yes it wasn't free flowing like both teams can be but by same token there was still much to enjoy in an attritional match. Good luck to Wakey next week and onwards.

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|
| Thought Lawler and Linnet were excellent in defence ground out a good win thought with the wind Wakefield were going to win it by a couple of scores second half

| Gotta be a big confidence boost to the team to keep Wakey tryless, i know the conditions made it hard but its still a great effort all the same

| The wind is always difficult at BV as it swirls so much in all directions.
Could tell it was going to be an arm wrestle once Craig Hall kicked the first goal of the day.
Defences well on top and very difficult for either side to make many yards in attack.
Always felt that one error would win it otherwise golden point beckoned.
Thought that you just about shaded it.

Agree with all of that. Not seen the stats yet but felt like Wakey had more chances and the first 20 of 2nd half we seemed permanently in defence?But didn't cave in like feared.Really did well keeping Pauli and Fifita at bay.It then became end to end and we came out on top. A stand alone game due to conditions that both teams would feel aggrieved at losing.

To be fair we sacked our last coach after losing to them.

And Chester too IIRC ?, but cannot be certain.
It wasnt a pretty game to watch in those conditions, and it always looked like any kind of try would win it. Could have gone either way really, but your guys were good value winners against what i thought was a very negative Wakefield side.
