Here is our resident FC expert on all things rugby. I'd say Grix has better handling skills than Shaul and better defensively but of course your chav has raw speed.From what iv seen Shaul spills his share of high balls but because he hasn't had to defend that much he gets a lot of attacking ball.Different role nowadays and we have 2 small fast fullbacks at KR in Moss and Quinlan.May be a luxury? Hardaker was the perfect blend of old style fullback and modern extra pivot but unfortunately he spunked his talent

Why you going on about Hull FC, I didn't mention them or Shaul?

Just like your chairman did in the HDM Q&A published yesterday, totally unprompted uncle Neil started waffling on about Hull FC

Cop out of an answer, hey ho!

We’ve got a huge front row rotation, athletic back row, two good organisers at Half Back and pace across the three quarters complimented by an experienced Full Back.

I also pointed out some of our major flaws so no suggestion that we are unbeatable. As for not matching us for size, that’s based on this game and who’s in HKRs squad right now, it’s not aimed at every RL team.

I’m not sure how else anyone could describe the Wakefield team other than how I did

Didn't Want any passing Wakey fan to think you were a Robin.You gave us the benefit of your view on Grix and I compared him to your FB. Wrap up warm tonight it's a miserable cold day.Just got in from bit of graft and it's bitter. Shower then beer for me so I will keep an eye on how you go against Hudds. Hudds getting 10 start and in this weather may be a decent punt? Done Mamo or Rankin 1st try.

Don't think Rovers season will ever start. lol

I wouldn't want them to think that either.



We should get the job done, but definitely worth a punt. Crap weather, perhaps one eye on the Aus trip, some players haven't had a run out in pre-season, you never really know what's going to happen in these early games.

Why is it a cop out and why the snide remark. I'll be delighted if you're right, my appraisal of our team is just a little more modest than yours. Can't anyone have an opinion that differs from yours. Jeez I thought I was an ar*e at times but you're something else.

Don't worry.At least you support the same team.We are infested with smug FC fans and weird FC fans pretending to be Rovers fans.Go figure?

his opening post was as if we should not bother turning up, and grand final awaits you, whilst wakey have made good progress over the last few years, including some very astute recruitment , theres still more work to do before you order your tins of brasso

Hey you were the one who made comment on my post fella, not the other way around.
Where did I suggest you can’t have an opinion, all I asked for was a bit of qualification but as is often the case you seem happy to criticise but can’t back it up. The remark wasn’t snide either, it’s right there for you to read and it was nothing more than a typographical shrug of the shoulders after you decided not to give a proper answer.

Nowerdays I post on RLFans about half a dozen times a month so when it comes to being an I don’t pass enough comments to qualify.

I’ll could take an educated guess on who’d be the between the two of us but let’s go to the VT and put it to the vote eh?

I didn’t really say that though did I, the only area I suggested that you can’t compete is on size in the front row. Sometimes the best way to beat a big pack is to go with a smaller faster pack that has players with good footwork and thats all I suggested.

Well an interesting first 2 game.Didnt expect leeds to win pre game but they deserved it.The new Warry half looked like a tubby hooker?Masila was quieter than iv ever seen him but on paper they look good.Thought the new coach had the look of Raymond off the old American sitcom? Thought/hoped Hull may lose but obviously not. Bad night on the betting
