How the hell did Taylor get mom.

Thought Lovegrove looked good as well as Green. Pea and Mika looked unfit. Your defence in the first half was impressive especially the fringes.

Who does the dude with the Afro think he is ? Looked like he wanted a fight every time he got tackled.

Was impressed with first half, Clinton was like a diff player mika and paea were solid Taylor was fab as ever, murrell put in sum Gud hits Josh hodgson was Gud in the pack, webbo solid as ever we missed dobbo and welham, also very impressed with james green and heil but the stand out for me was the chuckle brothers on the touchlines from me to you.... Can see bright things at KR this season, also the support from the Wigan fans was great.

I can't remember Taylor doing much at all. Knocked out a few drives then came off.

I thought you looked a little lost in attack, I know it's per season and Dobson wasn't playing but still.

Agree about the Wigan support although the same song for 80 mins was a tad annoying.

We did in the second half when the youngsters were brought on there was a bit of good rugby in the first half, i dont really take much notice of friendlies its to blow the cobwebs of and see were players are at, and at least your fans sing niot many other fans do, they sang from been outside the gates right through, how do u think luaki will go for you, as u cud tell he not a favourite of rovers fans.

I support Hull.

Hame looked to have lost a lot of weight, he looked decent in attack but like at Hull his D let's him down. He didn't look in a good way when he came off with an injury.

oh right did u go to the game and was he injured didnt know

Seen as none of the pre season games get any coverage what was the final score and attendance please?

Yeah I was there.

Yeah it looked like a shoulder injury. Be interesting to see how he goes.

22 - 6 to Wigan. Iirc 4000ish.

Ta
Not bad for all pay on a cold day

Oh dear what a shame to be honest can't understand y Wigan got him he did naff all for fc

The word in the 10-5 (Ooh get me) was that Dobbo is recovering from the bug that Hall's just got rid of, Dobbo and Clinton were sat behind us in the second half, both looked OK.

Few points;
Saw Sam Tomkins, Asked for my lighter back, He's a nice lad actually, didn't have my lighter though.
It was good to see the defensive line moving up rather than stood square, waiting.
A few good set-plays appeared and nearly came off a few times.
Welham commented pre-kickoff about how much harder training was, "No disrespect to Morgs, but..." were his words.
Wigan were great at covering up the ball in the tackle, or we were poor at getting an arm free. We did seem to be trying more, though.
Mickey Paea doesn't take a backward step, great to watch him, I think he left everything on the field.
Clinton was a different player.
HKR's rent-a-cop stewards seemed to be after doing their usual "let's throw someone out".
Good turnout from the Wigan 'lot' for a friendly at the end of a frosty M62.

Good to be back, UTR.

Itsure was a strange one.

It'll be interesting to see if a decent coach will get the best out of Ethel.
For Rovers I thought Paea, Mika, Clinton, Taylor and Withers looked promising in the forwards. Webbo and Hall in the backs.
Fair play to the Wigan fans who turned out in better numbers for a friendly than teams such as Huddersfield are liable to bring for their league fixture.
