Probably haven't learned anything new today. We can score points for fun & switch off just as quickly, but we knew that already. Thought we showed some real aggression in the 1st half. Gareth Hock is the best pantomime villain in Super League Outside of the West Stand is suddenly looking smart.

Today showed that when we get a fair share of the ball we have some real quality on our edges and can hurt teams.

However, the second-half showed that the team lack composure and patience but I think that goes with the territory when you have such a young side like us. Though maybe the multiple confrontations with Gareth Hock in the second-half meant the game was always going to get a bit scrappy.

Con Mika ignited the team with his murderous tackling and Paterson was different class but everyone played well.

Just hope Paterson doesn't cop a ban for his late challenge on Briscoe because I feel we can start to build some momentum if we get a bit of continuity.

You appear to have jumped the gun. What odds are available now?

1st half, Rovers showed some much needed aggression in defence and Widnes didn't look up for it. We couldn't work out if we had become world beaters overnight, or the wheels had all fallen off over in Cheshire.

The second half showed it was more likely the latter. Still lots of work for Mr Sandercock one suspects. The RH side still looks vulnerable but Paterson did a great job down the other side.

I read somewhere that "Rovers will regret letting Shannon McDonnell leave". All I can say after seeing Eden's debut is, Shannon who? We may not have class all across the park, but as long as Eden is fit, we have a genuine class full back.

So sandy is suddenly a great coach again and rovers are going to rip up SL? Can't wait for widnes to play at the KC so we can get as excited

I thought Caro was fantastic today. Yes, hes still got a long way to go but in terms of raw talent the kids fantastic. Thought he was graet at the end when he got taken out, he just got straight back up & lamped him.
Still plenty of room for improvement, but it feels good to get that first win of the season.

Did you actually read anything that I posted or are you just over here for the fishing?

So, had we lost it would affect the odds,



But because we won it wont?

Bet your bookie loves you all the way to his yacht.

One victory, at home, over a team who had zero points will not have a greatly effected the odds.
As stated, defeat at the bottom team in SL next week and you're 8/1 odds before todays success, will, I surmise, be roughly the same.

Comprende?

So now next weeks inevitable thrashing will see our odds stay around 8-1, whereas you were earlier encouraging us all to lump on before the prices are slashed?

I would need a PhD in Psychology to ever "comprende" such a case as you.

You won't get as excited cos u only drew with saints and they are poop as widnes only just got beat by them what does that make FC

Just fill your boots whilst you can Stanley.
There's no malice involved here, I'm just trying to make us all a few bucks.
I'd hate to come on here further down the track this season and have to state, 'I told you so'.

tell you what seen as im a betting man i will have a bet with you WIZEB i will give you 20/1 and will give hull kr minus 6 points in the final league position?

I know your winding them up but its a pointless bet if you was serious, its like quoting odds for any team outside of wire, saints, leeds, and wigan to win the grand final it will never happen.

you honestly think Hull kr are the worst team in the league?
