| Quote craig hkr="craig hkr"Not unlike your semi v them last season? The thing that buoyed me a bit was just how dissapointed the players looked at full time. They knew that game was winnable.Lots of good things from that performance and a good weeks training can see us improve again next game.You could and have spun it to take all the negatives and do your normal hatchet job on KR but I saw enough positives to suggest we will be ok?Saying that if we stink v les Cats then maybe hard to keep PMA?'"
Positives from that? I'll have a go, they certainly worked hard, Mulhern put in a huge shift & has improved a lot, Atkin looks a big improvement on Marsh, kicking game was pretty good. I'm struggling for much more than that.
For a team to have so much possession in the oppositions half and repeat sets, to only score two tries, that's pretty poor. Carney got no decent ball all game, Shaw took his try very well but again got very limited service, Quinlan is probably your biggest threat but didn't get much opportunity.
Your two centres are garbage and the oppositions left hand channel is going to have a field day against Blair & McGuire, absolutely dreadful defensively. Also, what did Masoe do, about 7 minutes? You need much more out of him.
I had Rovers +16 anyway, so happy days.

| Quote mean_machine="mean_machine"The conditions dictated that we could not really spread the ball last night though, you wasn't going to get free flowing rugby from either team.
As for Moss at fullback, the kid can't pass. We play with quinlan joining the line as a playmaker so playing moss means a switch of tactics - why would we do that when massive improvements in performance with that team - I think it will be same 17 if everyone is fit. Potentially salter on bench because he could of come on at centre and been a bit stronger defensively then blair was.'"
I know the conditions last night dictated the game. What I meant was in the final 20 we didn't spread it out wide, so gave the Leeds defence little to stretch them or think about. At the beginning of the 2nd half, when we had some pressure there was at least twice were on the right from where I was stood there was an overlap at the play the ball but we just drove it up the middle. This would be fine, if we were offloading. But we weren't.
In my opinion Moss is just a better FB. He's quicker, better under the high ball. And at least try searching that defence thing. I understand the pivot thing you point out, but personally would rather it was at LF than FB. As for him not being able to pass, neither can 70 % of our team.
Granted in summer it might be different, but it's hard to see on the evidence of last year and this year so far.
I think you're right that it will be the same 17 next week, weather it's the right 17 is opinion.

| Edited. Sorry TF, but I just find this ‘joke’ too witless, dull and needy. As a one off I’d let it go, but efforts to develop it into a recurring theme isn’t a good idea from any sensible perspective.
Cheers, MR.

Totally agree.. most of them are like a boil on your arris, unpleasant and full of poison.. would love it if most of them were removed. They serve no purpose except to be an irritation and a pain..Can,t seem to remember them on here when the "faithful," yea right, were calling for Radford out..wonder why?

If your ever feeling a bit bored and in need of a laugh just look back at Tarquins melt down. That will never get old or tired

FC fans having a pop a Rovers and visa versa has been going on for decades, if you can't handle it, don't go on the internet. You could try and discuss the points I made, rather than playing the victim and crying about some nasty FC fans.
Also, posters haven't left because of some FC fans commenting, forums are just outdated now. When this place was thriving, Twitter & Facebook weren't around, plus the moderation is pretty poor now in terms of clamping down on idiots & facilitating debate (generally, that's not a slight on MR).

I don't post on here much, but have got to agree. The funniest thing on here. At least Tarquin is now out of rehab, must have been a while though.

Quite why you feel any KR fan wants to read your view on our team is beyond me? As iv said before you are very clever at twisting things to suit your agenda. I frequent 3 forums sports related and there is truth in what you say about other outlets for social media but this page has become unreadable between simple FC dick waving posts and the insidious fake news you spew so eloquently. Take your opinions on our club and shove em up yer arris

Jewitt was top notch, played the whole of the first half. Agree with Atkin though MOM.
