Game done now, rovers are irrelevant. It’s now all about looking to sneak into the top 6. Think we play Cas x2, Hudds x2, wakey. If we win those games and a 4 pointer against Leeds we’ll be there or there abouts.

Sadly I think a genuine backrower is what will prevent us from hitting the target.

Which I make them the underdogs. Lewis is a magic player with so much talent but needs to mature into a pro. Their try today was because of that kids quality. Maybe this newcomer can advance him. He'started to go off the rails this season.


Have to agree the kid has talent but he seems more intent trying to wind opposing players snd fans up than letting his ability do the talking.
His attitude certainly needs some attention as he is fast becoming a grub than anything else. He copped a likely HIA due to his over exuberance throwing his back to try a milk a penalty towards then end. He cost Rovers valuable possession with poor temperament today him throwing himself on the floor after playing the ball a classic example.

Be a shame if his talent ends up being wasted because of his immaturity & discipline.






I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

He does the odd decent thing, but it’s far outweighed by the negatives.

Also think the Willie Peters affect is kicking in. He’s just another untried assistant, same as we’ve been lumbered with previously, and he’s not in the same league as the previous incumbent who laid some good foundations.
I think on Pure ability then Lewis is the best threat in the competition. Such a talent. He's certainly shown signs this season that he's not applying himself correctly. At the moment we look good in the halves but I wouldn't turn my nose up at having a player with his ability in our team. I do worry for him personally m that he's not progressing this season as he should be. I'd take his talent over Williams or the young Wigan half back Smith to question an Aussie defence.

It really doesn't matter how you win there as long as you do and put one over the games richest Club, yes a lot went wrong but the effort and wanting could not be faulted. For me I'm disappointed with Tumavavie, perhaps it's the skipper duties weighing too heavily but although he still puts in 100% he loses too much ball and makes some bad reads too. However has there been a better performance by Danny Houghton and as always in a Derby he gave his all but his new freer roll seems to be suiting him down to the grown and he's making a fool of all those who were calling for his head earlier in the season. However on a personal note it's a sad reflection that as the final hooter went all I could think was thank goodness at least it will be quiet on our board this week.

No mean feat to not only beat the top dogs but to nill them for 75 minutes especially when according to one of their supporters none of our first choice XVII would get in theirs.

It was more than 6, they get confused after they run out of fingers.

Remember when Keith said all Rovers halfbacks were better than Clifford, not only is he better than any of their halfbacks, he is also better than any of their fullbacks.

Imagine the abuse Hoy would have taken on social media if he misses that tackle of Swift like Walker did.

Just on Houghton's assist for Swift. He looks a different player under Smith.
