Why oh why does it always take us to concede a try before we wake up!. By the sounds of it. There might of been some paint stripping in the sheds after the match.

Sheffield currently doing us a massive favour...

Just seen the tries, Greenwood wants a kick up the for his attempt on Sammut at the start of the 2nd half.

Sheens has lots to work on.

He'll be embarrassed by that, I'm sure. He was quiet last week, and was limping for a while - I wonder if he was fully fit today. On his day he's one of our best forwards, but if he's not right we do have other options now.

At the other end of the scale, credit to Quinlan for preventing a try from one of London's props with a one on one tackle.

Well you've had you're toughest away game for the season ( unless you draw an SL team in the CC!) , turned out in great numbers again. Really thought you'd stuff us in the 2nd half, pleased to have been proven wrong- was an entertaining afternoon.
Hope all got home ok, see you at CP for OUR toughest away game!

I've just seen it, Stan. Makes some of Dixon's efforts whilst in a Rovers shirt look positively text book.

On the Dumberside commentary, it sounded like Greenwood's performance today set the benchmark for a poor display. It sounded like he was a penalty machine too.

I reckon he'll play next week, but he's one more bad performance from being dropped imo.

Thanks to all who came down today. Enjoyed your company. Room for improvement in both sides I reckon - hope we can both rattle some cages in the middle 8s.

Just seen the full game on Hull KR.TV. That was an ugly win against a very spirited and dogged London side, with some skilful players.

Lowlights - our defensive line speed, our flappy tackling and initial collisions, our goal line defence again, our execution in the final 20 and our overall kicking game again. Worst player - easily James Greenwood. Poor in every facet. He looked totally off the pace all game. Scruton's offload leading to the Purcell kick through for the Dixon try was pure insanity.

Highlights - our spine, particularly our halves, our intensity on some sets yielding positive results, our willingness to take on the line and the skill of Quinlan and Heffernan. Best players - Mitch Clark, followed by Abdull, Quinlan, Ellis, Heffernan and Shaw.

Lots to work on before we go to Rochdale.

not seen the game yet, but from what you say, and the reports I've read, the spine seems to be playing at a different level to the support players.
If that's the case, lots to do on the training pitch this week.

Watched it Hull KRTV. Whereas Bradford were pretty good considering the turmoil there, London were just pretty good I thought. Tbh the main difference between the sides at half time was that Rovers just took their chances better. When they pulled it back to 12-16 that was a fair reflection to that point.
Rovers stepped up a gear, briefly, but then switched off a little perhaps and tbf London responded well. Nice to see us give away a penalty on the penultimate play so we could get the defensive line set! The most painful lessons are those you remember best, and there's some reassurance that ultimately the comeback fell short and we held on.

Individually Greenwood was disappointing, but he was definitely testing his knee at some stoppages in play. Needs resting or, as Pickering says another one of those and somebody else deserves a shot. Blair was almost Trappist quiet, without doing owt wrong. A positive in the backrow was Lawler who looks bigger and hopefully better in 2017. The spine (vertebrae?) were all pretty decent.
We weren't great, but London weren't at all bad either.
