Tim quoted as saying Atkin will start against Leeds. Right call for me.

You may well be proved correct, my point is that the young lad needs to be given the chance to fail & the chance to put it right. We just have no place in todays game for talent to be nurtured. One bad game & your career is over now.

Jack Walker at Leeds is what you’d class as young and looks every bit a first team regular. Matty Marsh is what, 23? And he looks a very average reserve, how long can he go on clinging on to the ‘youngster tag’?

I’d like to see Quinlan in the half’s and maybe moss at full back

Maybe if we do not get who they are after they might try him

Every chance you could give Salford a decent run for the wooden spoon after tonight's valiant efforts.
Comfortable for the Champions without getting out of second gear.

An early message from dingbat central I see...

second gear lol, there didn't get out of first,leeds where awful have never known a team drop the ball or knock on as much, the match was there for the taking,

That's how I saw it mate.
Leeds dropped the ball a hundred times and still won comfortable.

Can't fault the effort.
But the lack of pace, and persistent running back around the ruck, coupled with a no offloads policy. Means we're going to struggle in attack. Especially as we don't want to spread it out wide.
Think we need Moss at FB to give us something different.
Next week (a game I can't get to) is the important one.

There was some encouragement, buy a lot we need to improve on.

Agreed, Kr didn't look too bad though so may may win one or two matches.

Uncle Tim has just confirmed they are still unbeaten.

Plenty of effort but poor with the ball and sheens got his interchanges wrong and fatigue of your front rowers cost you late in the first half when you were in charge of teh game.

mose masoe is a waste of a shirt but good to see tommy lee as one of your best players

Well done rovers, keep playing like that and you will be in super league in 2019. Wouldn't say best side lost, but game effort

A huge positive for Hull KR compared to last week is Atkins looks like he could be the partner McGuire needs, the lad played well I thought. Leeds were awful though apart from a couple of 5/10 minute spells, especially compared to the previous week and were there for the taking IMO. But like Leeds, you have to really put them away or they'll just manage to do enough.

I thought Hull KR, considering the rain held onto the ball more and managed to get through some sets which were an improvement over last week and put real pressure on an undisciplined Leeds team at times but just couldn't keep it going for the full 80 and a couple of those Leeds tries from Keinhorst I think Sheens would expect better.

Who knows if Leeds had one eye on the plane journey and the Storm but at least it was a game you were in it to win it.

I also liked the kicks offs you lot were doing, perfect for the conditions on that pitch and as was said on comms I bet we see more teams do the same when the conditions suit.
