Are you on crack? Swain has been replaced, Carvell has spent most of the last two seasons injured. Domic and Briscoe were surplus to requirements.

Poor attempt. It is possible to fluke a CC final but it isn't possible to fluke three major finals in four seasons (winning one). This is something you won't have to worry about in your life time.

I would say elevating Hull KR to mediocrity in SL is a bigger achievement than most of these players could have previously claimed. Some I will give you, but you are taking the p*ss with others.

Hull = probable top 6 / possible top 4 contenders. Hull KR = probable bottom 6 / possible bottom 4 cannon fodder

I thought I was the deluded one...
And as for Rovers improving into the play-offs with the stellar addition of Fozzard and, er, .... , best of luck! Back in the real world you have next to no chance.

To be fair, that comment is b*llocks and is rightly getting you criticised for it. To say that even the majority of Hull KR players had the "best year of their careers" is blatantly incorrect, let alone "almost to a man".

My point exactly. Nothing more, nothing less!

Does the bit in bold mean you realise it happened but still deny it? (And then rather amusingly go on to call said person an 'idiot'?!).
Are you also trying to tell us that what happened a long time ago doesn't matter as much as the present?

Majority = More than half.
Take Fisher (yet to play in a top flight play-off game, I believe), Gene, and Crossman (bit-part players in good teams) off Zod's list and you have, at most, 9 from last seasons squad of roughly 25 who have played in teams that have had better seasons than Rovers did last year.
That still leaves 16 who probably have not (don't ask me to list them all as I can't be arsed). That is a majority.
'Almost to a man' is a bit strong, I admit, but no need to get on your high horse. There are more ridiculous statements on this thread!
The point I was trying to make was that Hull certainly underachieved last season and Hull KR probably overachieved. All things being equal, this will be rectified this season. I stand by that as a fair comment.
