When Rovers' are on top, they have enough to score points e.g. against Crusaders and Quins however when they're up against it the forwards don't get the team up the pitch well enough. It can also be suggested that Dobson and the team in generals long kicking game is poor. Has Morgan improved your team from last year? IMO no. Cook is poor, Ratu is poor. I think you definitely needed another forward however you also needed something other than Dobson in attack too so getting rid of Cooke maybe wasn't a great idea.

Us real fans don't look over our shoulder at our neighbours and do whatever we can to get one over on them. We look at the bigger picture. And this is the reason why Rovers are and will forever be considered a small club. Because their fans and board would rather get one over on Hull FC above anything else.
Quite sad, really!
SPOT ON!

Saints were good but:
Upto Pryce knocking the ball out of Cockaynes hands which resulted in them getting another set of 6 and scoring you were right in that game. I thought you were murdered by the ref. The Cockayne sin bin im not sure on. Judging by the knobs in the commentary box he had to go but i really didnt think there was that much in it. Fisher was daft as you had been warned so he should have made sure he kept them down but on the other hand some of the tackles from Saints were no different from what you were getting pinged for.
Dont get me wrong i dont think you would have won but the scoreline was definately not a reflection of your team at the moment.

Well if it's that obvious why didn't your coach sort it out in the off season? He's getting paid god knows how much and he's brought in poor players.

you bring players in who you think will do a good job for you, not because there poor players, we know now that Cook isnt very good and that Ratu hasnt done anything either, but Morgan must have thought they could do a job when he signed them.

Well ofcourse he did, but do you think his transfer policy was correct? Adding players who weren't really proven super league players?

Were Saints not impacted by injuries at all tonight or did they play 6 players 20 or younger for the fun of it?
They're hardly pivotal players either. Sure they'll tighten up the backline and allow Newton to return to the second row but more worrying would be the performances of players like Briscoe/Fox who look shadows of the players they were last year. The last try was terrible defending with 3 of them going for the same kick.
