Our usual slow and poor start already done the damage.
We are just too lightweight and needed to be smarter from the start. In fairness we practically gifted Rovers their early scores due to our continual poor starts as if we just aren’t ready.

We’ve done well to stem the tide and get back in to the game but needed to get a score.

I know we have it tough and Trueman doesn’t have much to play behind but for a player on marquee money he really has got to start delivering something. It’s times like this you need your marquee players to step up and he just isn’t doing it.

I’m also not sure we are any worse in and around ruck/ptb than Rovers but seem to be getting pinged more along with offside calls.

Wish someone would just flatten Minchella and Lewis don’t expect anything else from Minchella as that’s all he’s got but Lewis has talent and does t need to be such a grub

Well that's grim, thanks for that.....

Showing why we need a massive change of players next year. I'm not gonna blame one player as there's a lot need moving on. . Unfortunately today showing where we are. At least showed a bit of grit the last 20. But Rovers have gears to move up if needed. Painful to watch but good crowd here considering

It’s really low level ability
Yep higher level enthusiasm but that does not win matches alone

You need complete discipline and we don’t have that or ability

Just error after error

What’s our completion rate ?

Thankfully we have a new coach who surely can make us 50% fitter and add an extra 5kg to every player !!

We play to win not for the biff

Completion is higher than theirs. 85%.

Errors and discipline poor, but it was their fast first 20 mins which did the damage. Since then it’s been an even game.

Unfortunately it’s showing again that we have about 1/3 or our salary cap not even playing, relying on teenagers in key positions, and only have 3/7 quota players.

Only pub teams take heart from having
a bit of a biff and scuffle when losing.
Professional teams analyse their completion rates and where they need to get better in the game and quick !!

Where have we changed tactics in the game ?

Grix’s stamp is on this team and I’ll
Be happy when he moves on

Problem with calling Lewis a grub when they play for Hull FC they are great a la Connor

I think in fairness the majority said similar about Connor when he played for us and that it affected his game

We have one quality forward,no halfbacks and two poor centres
Rovers are in second gear but still have too much power in the forwards and of course much more pace
