We were in the away end, the worst place ever to watch a game from. There was a freezing gale blowing down the pitch towards us, yet Rovers never used it in the first half. Surely the tactic should have been, especially early on, kick deep and try to force the error.

Tactics??? What are they?

Even as the game was getting away from us we never changed our one man rugby, no offloads, no off the cuff risks, nothing changed at all.

We took loads of risks in defence, they all came off and Wigan scored fifteen trys.

Trouble is Ginge, that you're supposed to offload to your teammates, not the opposition. The good news for you is you have to go to their ground. The bad news for us is we have still to play them twice.

He will have expected the youngsters to rise to the occasion ? I don't think he expected the display he got. He has five days to sort it out, lets see how he gets on with the task, I would not get rid of him as I think he is the right man for Rovers & he is still learning his trade. Anyway who would replace him ? dont say Kear or Noble.

So we're now the club to have most recently broken our worst result record. But until yesterday ours seems to have been one of the more venerable ones, shared between 1956 and 1991, both at Halifax, coincidentally. Most clubs are too sensible to list theirs, but those SL clubs for which I could find one:
Cas 2006, Hull 2005, Salford 2000, Saints 1909, Warrington 1996, Widnes 2012.
Wigan's seems to have been their 75-0 reverse at saints in 2005 and Hudds can't have had too many worse than the 86-6 Leeds did them by in 1999.
So while there is no getting away from what it is, most clubs have had their worst day in fairly modern times.

Edit, most conceded for Bradford is 1931, but the margin was greater against Hull last year. Hudds lost by 82 in '88. London 6-82 in 2011. Wakefield in 1995, against Cas just for added salt in the wound.

I don't get your point. Naturally most blow out scores will be relatively recent due to the introduction of the 4 point try in the 80's (can't remember exactly when). I bet none of the above thrashings were on their own park in front of their own paying customers.

Besides, I don't care about other sides past failings, I'm concerned about the flippant way in which our coaching & playing staff approached & executed a SL fixture. All concerned should be ashamed of themselves. Even the Wigan fans were short changed yesterday. They travelled 2 hrs+ for a training session.

Far too much has been read into some of our results this season, particularly beating a shocking Hull side and the victory over half of Warrington's reserves. Widnes showed how easy that can be done.

My point, such as it is, is that talking about it in the context of our entire history is to be expected but summer rugby and 4 point tries makes comparison difficult. And I'm trying to rationalise away the plopness of it all, and you're not helping!

Whatever it is in relative terms, and despite some mitigating factors, it is a thoroughly embarrassing scoreline on its own terms, I acknowledge.

If somebody had offered 4pts from six before the 3 games in eight days we would have taken it whatever combination...unfortunately did,nt see that coming on monday. Expected a defeat but not capitulation, worst performance ive seen from a rovers team since my first game in 1967. The legends at the KC on friday would have put up a better show than that. Stayed to the bitter end, but embarrassed to be a rovers supporter at the moment. icon_evil.gif icon_evil.gif icon_evil.gif icon_evil.gif icon_evil.gif icon_evil.gif
