Spot on even I was tired just watching

I like Potter but no.

We shot ourselves in the foot tonight, as the tide started to turn we merely needed to stem the tide, kick well (which we didn't do all night and also gave Jeffries a complete carpet ride, giving him time and space to bisect our wingers and full back) and complete our sets.

After conceding a try at 24-14, our senior players have to, have to, stand up, steady the ship and grind it out. This is not the time for Champagne football, in the end, we allowed Bradford to get a massive roll on and cut us to bits.

Whitehead was fabulous for them, we made Jeffries look a player.

Without Galea our left side is terrible. Centre is the most difficult position to defend but come on Krissy, this isn't good enough. Unfortunately, Latus is not a Super League payer.

I agree. I said at the time, we came out blazing and got too cocky. We need to learn when to calm down and just keep the pressure on. I have just watched it back on Sky, and when we were good, we looked very dangerous. At the end of the day, there is no excuse for squandering the lead we had, but we have to give some credit to Bradford, they kept coming for us, when we thought we had the game won. After watching them grow in confidence on Sky the last few weeks, I knew they would be no easy beats; and so I did not get confident with our blistering start, it was the opposite, it worried me. IMO its the last twenty minutes of games that we need to work on, we need to learn to not lose focus and tough it out. I don't agree with some who say we haven't improved under Sandercock, I think we have, after all, he isn't the one out there losing concentration and making mistakes! When we are playing with focus, you can see the differences he has made.

Agree with pretty much all of that.

It was bound to happen at some point squire, give enough monkey's and all that...

All of that happened because of the way bradford were playing. Your kicking game was poor because you have only 1 kicker and bradford made sure he couldn't get a decent kick away. I agree rovers game went to pot but it wasn't just because rovers suddenly stopped playing

Wrong pal!!!! Sandercock has one of the worst "suggestive cogitations" (going up at the end of a sentence) ive ever come across, makes him sound simple.

There kick pressure was good, but we should have enough intelligence to drop a metre, our kicks were that terrible that losing a metre wouldn't have made a difference.

A worry for me (not a big one at this point, early days) is that things went wrong after twenty minutes of the first half, we scored against the run of play just before half time and should then have reorganised, one of two things then happened, either Sandercock couldn't adapt the game plan to counter Potter or the players are incapable of carrying that out. We had enough senior players on the park at all times and had enough flipping time behind the sticks ffs for someone, anyone to come up with the revolutionary game plan of playing out our sets and getting a decent kick in. That way, at 24-20 even, eight times out of ten we win that game.

You must be a newcomer to the game if thats what you think, because i can gurrantee that you most certainly have not been.
You obviously wern't around when there were only 900 at the Boulevard and still in div 2, i also dont remember you ever winning back to back titles or been one of only a small number of clubs ever to win the treble in a season.
As for Sandercock not been able to communicate with the press, you should take those ear muffs off along with with your blinkers.

To be fair, being an Aussie he's behind the eight ball from the off, he doesn't sound particularly inspiring to me but he needs at least eighteen months.

Before the season I felt that sneaking into the play offs would be a realistic aim, I still think that. Sandercock's job is to bring through home grown players and improve our young first team members which gets us on the way to self sufficiency.

Like Hull, too many rovers fans have an over inflated opinion of the quality of the squad the coach has to play with. At least our coach isn't constantly referring to it in the press though

supported hull Fc for 36yrs i don't travel away but havn't missed many home games and in my time never had a crowd of 900 defo in low thousands around 2500-3000 in lean times but never had 900 when ive been there
