maybe if you play under strength teams you should only get 1 point for a win then

True and true.



Hard to believe that the three playmakers (Bosc, Bird, and Mogg) and the Australian international Ryles would not have made a huge difference, including to the outcome.

I think you mean "hard to swallow" rather than "hard to believe".

They only come on here when they win and even such a brilliant, breathtaking, well earned victory against Salford has seen little of their massive way support frequent this board

Long may it last.

Had Hull KR been without Michael Dobson, Paul Cooke, Jacob Webster, Michael Vella, Benjamin Galea and Clinton Newton, would it have been "hard to believe" that it would not affect the outcome?

So what, do we ask the RFL to postpone all games until each club has a 100% fit squad or do we gat on with the job and go out and beat who we are facing, which is what we did. We are second on MERIT, it might or might not last, but at the moment we are playing good quality rugby and winning regularly.

Who the hell is Jacob Webster? Did I miss a new signing?

1) Yes they were under strength,, no one can deny that. However they have still got some good results recently, you could argue better ones then when their missing players were included. Teams tent to pull together in adversity ask Wakey (but not HUll fc)

2)Put it this way we had Walker, Cockayne, fozzard and Lovegrove (that is four, in case you can't count) missing, who WOULD have all made the team.

3)Are those sour grapes giving you tummy ache yet?

i agree with fozzard and lovegrove the way they have been playing but surely on form at the minute welham is ahead of walker and briscoe is ahead of cockayne
