Pity that the clock cock-up overshadowed the game. 36 each, great effort from both sides, suspect defences but I suspect that both sides will be happy with a point in the cold light of day.
Clockgate aside, that was one of the best 82 minutes (LOL) of rugby I have seen at MS3CP in a long long time. It seemed everytime we got to the saints line, we scored. I for one would've taken a draw before the match and will be looking forward to watching the full 80 on Hull KR TV on Tuesday!

Edited for accuracy...
Cracking game, far better than expected, after going 14 down i thought that was curtains for us but what a response from the lads.
Ps, how long have we had the rlfans live score doofer? pretty good that.

Phew!
That was a rollercoaster, at fourteen nil I feared the worst. Really entertaining game, I felt we did enough to win but a draw was probably fair.
Another mammoth effort from all the players, Mika was my MOM, but Hall really is looking good at six, yes, he is going to make two or three howling errors (concentration lapses) per game but his run to the line and pass to Mika into the gap for his second try was quality.
Big games again from Paea and Clinton, much better this week form Cox and Taylor but it's also players like Horne and Wheeldon really putting their hands up.
Very worrying injuries to Withers and Hodgson, we'll soon have no pivots what so ever.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.
