The combination should get Hull Kr moving forward again, but so called mid level teams only seem to be able to move forward up to a certain point, before they plateau and then start declining. Cas are a good example, they have been moving forward and building momentum the last few seasons since powel took over. They are pretty much at the plateau point, but instead of being able to kick on and for example break through and make a grand final appearance they'll tread water and eventually hit abit of a decline. It's incredibly hard for teams to make that breakthrough.

No pressure from the East Stand yesterday Jakey Boy just stunned silence in the first half as to how crap and half d we were. No speed and urgency all round. Couple this with seasoned professionals like Lunt, Campese, Mantellato and Donaldson playing like squidgy headed dicks. Chucking daft passes, needlessly forcing passes, gifting tries, making idiotic decisions, switching off at marker.

We upped the intensity and effort in the second half, the East Stand and the whole crowd appreciated it, got behind the team and nearly got them over the line. In the final analysis, we couldn't finish them off, despite opportunities.

We could repeat same next week. That's my worry. We are currently a team incapable of stringing a ruthless 80 minute performance together, home or away.

Did you notice two of your players (think Peacock and Cockayne, but not sure) put their hands of the ref yesterday after the drop goal?

No, I don't think anybody has mentioned it or tried to draw attention to it on any forum.

Wouldn't lose sleep over Salford mate.
Should be a walk in the park like you say.

ggive powell the cash some teams and coaches are privaliged to and im certain he would be up there in finals

got to agree KR fans this is a dead rubber for you Salford have gone they where terrible last week and they haven't really put Batley to the sword today either. I hope you win the super league would be a poorer place with you not in it and Salford up still, you deserve your place you support your team come rain or shine and travel in big numbers putting money in the pockets of all other clubs and creating a great atmosphere from a none bias point of view every neutral should be willing you to win and when you do the super league will breath a sigh of relief good luck and I mean that

We've been crap at home in front of the cameras. The only thing to take heart in is the fight baxk in the 2nd half against Hudds.

If the RFL take action against Peacock and Cockayne after we've already lost Greebwood, the dubious drop goal and woeful refereeing by Hicks in the 1st half especially, then I fear for us.

We have sleep walked into the mid 8s, coasted in some of the mid 8s game and the game when we could have ended it before the MPG we did nothing for 40 mins.

With all those facts in mind, I'm bricking it.

We've been crap at home full stop. 4 home wins all season. One of them was against Batley.

Yesterday was the 7th / 8th home game settled by 2 points or less. We've only managed to win 1 of them.

You rely on your halves to guide you home in tight games. Campese & Kelly have managed 1 home game together in 2017. Both went off injured.

Marsh can't run a game. Campese can't run. Kelly can't be trusted.

...I am also bricking it.

I can certainly understand I would be also if reversed, the biggest worry I can see for you is losing greenwood to injury if he is unavailable this week and peacock touching ref which a number of pics have been floating around on SM. he would be big loss as e is a leader and talker on the field something you need desperately, I still you will win even without these 2 players but it would make it closer I think

You lads seem very confident. Please, please under estimate us.

Salford back on form today (top eight material save for Marwan`s penalties) so please write us off. At last they looked up for it.

Michael Dobson is very much looking forward to the match. Josh Griffin Newly signed for Hull FC also.

Relax boys - thats what we want you to do. Salford absolutely nothing to lose now.

same to lose as us pal
but we are at home and should win same for you if you were at home 60/40 in rovers favour feel a bit for you lads as 6pt deduction is not supporters fault may the best team win with no controversy

I hope the management print this off in giant print and stick it on the dressing room wall, especially the bits about Dobson and Josh Griffin relishing returning to the Lightstream stadium.
It may at least go some way to blowing away any bits of complacency that they may harbour.
Above all i hope Webster and the players start to realize before Saturday that nothing short of a FULL 80 minute display will do, not twenty, not 40 or 60, but the full 80 minutes.
Above all, stop giving away cheap possession in your own 20 or 30 metre zone with ridiculous passes that are never on.

I'm failing to see anyone who is really confident its a one off match which I'm dreading

Any Rovers fan with their faculties intact are bricking it and fearing the worst, you won't find many complacent fans round here apart from a few doing a bit of fishing
