Wakey : Sun Mar 10, 2019 5:02 pm  

Didn't see that win coming? Pack fronted up on a heavy pitch versus the biggest pack in SL. Just a huge difference in defensive attitude from last few week and bear in mind Greenwood off for 50ish min McGuire sin bin and 7 or 8 injured plus Tomkins banned. We are quick to moan when we lose but that effort today was immense and every player played their rock's off. Old fashioned RL but it's the 2 points that matter. Wakey are no mugs, but we are a better side than we've shown so far

What a great performance,masoe,garbutt,lawler,atkins when he came on quickened it up,maguire with the winner,but for me two of our new signings linnett and drinkwater were brilliant.great win and a pleasant journey home.Hope greenwood isnt as serious as it looked,and wish jewitt would stop giving dumb penalties.

Well done on the 2 points, was a poor poor game as a spectator but the weather was always going to play a part.

Re: Wakey : Sun Mar 10, 2019 5:32 pm  

A poor poor game as a fan if you lose it? Win it and it's all about the 2 points. No one could say it was a tryfest but it was captivating and exciting in conditions harking back to winter rugby. Tough hard slog. On paper Wakey massive pack should have had advantage throw in injuries sin bin and recent form of both sides I can't fault The Rovers today. Amazing how every KR win is due to being the better of 2 poor teams on the day?

Very Important win this early on looking how the table stands.

Re: Wakey : Sun Mar 10, 2019 5:42 pm  

No a poor game in conditions that made the speed of the game almost laughable at times. Not taking anything away from KR so don’t jump down my throat.

Re: Wakey : Sun Mar 10, 2019 5:44 pm  

Sets up next week's games lovely with both Catalans and Wakey wanting to bounce back. Just hope we get good news on Greenwoods leg injury

Having a similar discussion on VT. Yes it wasn't free flowing like both teams can be but by same token there was still much to enjoy in an attritional match. Good luck to Wakey next week and onwards.

Thought Lawler and Linnet were excellent in defence ground out a good win thought with the wind Wakefield were going to win it by a couple of scores second half

Gotta be a big confidence boost to the team to keep Wakey tryless, i know the conditions made it hard but its still a great effort all the same
