After Albert Kelly won us the game at home, thoughts on the game at Salford.
It won't be easy, chance for them to win back to back games for the first time this season.
With our points difference being poor at least a draw is required.

we need a win. if we still aim to get in the top 8 we need beat Salford and win the Derby. Then hypothetically ( depending on Widnes ) we should be able to field a weakened team for Saints prior to the Cc semi. Any other outcome puts massive pressure on the squad till the end of the season.

I'm sure everybody at KR will realise this and Chester will expect to hit Salford hard and get the win. Salford however may have other ideas!

My thoughts exactly we can't go into the saints game needing a result it has to be over 1 way or another

If we win on Sunday, and you win the next two games, you still couldn't risk the last result, in case we beat Wigan on the last game (Although as it's on a Thursday you will know the result)

A win on Sunday will do for a start, it wont be plain sailing but at least this part of the season is getting interesting in our area.

Without wishing to sound too defeatist but it's a fact that has to be stated ...

SL (away)
Played 9
Lost 8
Won 1

Do we honestly expect a change in fortune?

If you believe in sods low no but if you truly believe YES it has to happen why not now

I've got a feeling in my water that Rovers will win this Sunday. For this to happen, we need:
- To stop gifting sides their first 2 tries, as we have in the last 2 games
- To tighten up around the ruck
- To protect the ball better inside our 20
- To turn up with a bit more desire, intensity, physicality and line speed
- To hope the weather on Sunday is dry

Rovers by more than 10 in the event of the above, Salford by more than 10 if not.

You'll win on sunday. salford in disarray without a coach

Change the record, pr1ck

Time to give an airing to the well worn forum trope of the exploding irony meter.

Yes, he's a one-note gormer, but as irritations go it really should be minor. You should try living with my effin Internet connection.

Anyway the AUP about insults, final reminder.

I would be quite annoyed if I was a Hull fan about playing before everybody else in the final round. It might not matter, but the way things look at the moment, it could easily.

Ha ha.

I come in peace JTP.

Salford are in disarray, yes, but suspect that the arrival of Aussie supremo Tim Sheens at training today to take charge of same and other rugby matters at the Red Devil's until the end of the season could just kick-start this bunch. Just as Brian Smith is doing at the Wildcats.

What might be a problem that undermines success is resentment and bad feeling caused by some players and staff allegedly not receiving wages on time, this according to their fans forum.

Scott Taylor is sulking as he has no spare pennies to splash out on his beloved extra pies.

Tim Sheen's has won everything in his career, Sunday will go to the wire.
