Korbin Sims? Alright for bullying half backs I suppose.
He’s the Billy Baldwin of the Sims family. Even Ashton is better than him and that’s saying something.

Stats say last night he made 17 tackles, missed 7 and gave away 2 penalties. With an average gain of 6 metres (only 64 metres made in total). As a contrast, against Leeds Chris Satae made 35 tackles, missed 0 and made 201 metres. For the big money he is undoubtedly been paid, he is terrible. In fact for any amount of money he is pretty poor, but because he celebrates when the opposition knock on Rovers fans seem to think he's the best and most passionate prop around. Reality is a poor version of LMS. I chuckled when Rovers signed George King but while he isn't a world beater he goes about his business quietly and has actually looked a good signing for them.

To be fair not as terrible as Albert Vete. How the hell do they find a pair of shorts to fit him.

And to think Rovers fans were calling Satae and Sao overweight plodders.

I agree totally about the point you make,rovers have money and are about to buy their ground,and can afford to sign quality players e.g lachlan coote,shaun kenny-dowell,korbin sims and made a good bid for blake austin,who decided hull was too far away from his current base.You are also are correct that injuries may hamper rovers beating hull,

I should keep some of that money back Des, there was a chap on Radio Humberside this afternoon, saying a figure of £300,000 of unauthorised funds had been channeled from Hull College, and awarded to rovers as a grant towards your stadium , he seemed to think it was illegal, and further investigations are ongoing.

I will. He’s often in Morrison’s on Holderness Road. Buying fish sticks for Stephen.

Alec has someone to go to Waitrose for his shopping.

I saw a couple of Rovers fans with the same hairstyle as Korbin last week.
Thought it was in honour of their star forward. Then I remembered it was East Hull and it’s still 1980 there.

No, if we’d beaten Huddersfield and Leeds, plus beaten against Salford and Leigh in the games postponed due to Covid, we’d be on 23 points from 15 games. That would have put us joint third with Warrington on 76.67%.

All ifs, buts and maybes though. We’ve already lost those two games and both the Leigh and Salford home games have yet to here-scheduled. At least they’ll have to be our first two re-scheduled games.

But you’ve played 14 matches without the ones you mention

No positive news coming from FC these days. I know let’s post a load of irrelevancies about our neighbours. That will help me feel a bit better.
