Crusaders never gave up, there heads didnt drop and they still threw the ball about even at the end, the playoffs are beyond them this season but i reckon reckon theres still a few more wins too come for them this season yet
Just a quick question, why did some of the KR fans in the East Stand, small minority mind, give the ref a hard time when he clearly signaled that the penalty was going Rover's way? This happened on several occassions, seemed a bit odd.

That's a very good question. A vocal minority simply yell at the referee whenever the opportunity arises regardless of the decision and who committed the penalty. I like the ones who flatly refuse to believe their own eyes and complain even when Rovers have clearly committed a penalty or, as happened on Sunday, blamed the Crusaders player for Lovegrove slipping and banging his nose onto the crusaders player's knee.
I think this particular brand of supporter is common to most teams.

Think the best is forward passes, that they blatently couldnt see from were they are standing, then you get the shouts of sideways/backwards afterwards
Only time i heard out from were i was stood was when they went over for the try, with a "4 points to the referee" chant. And the very odd chants about some geezer called Gary

My personal idiotic fan chant is the "cheat, cheat, cheat" one.
But only when followed up by the same people then chanting "you don't know what you're doing".
So which is it? If the ref doesn't know what he's doing then how can he also cheat.
Try and make sense you dozy Berkshire Hunt's.
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.
I stand behind a guy who complains about everything. When the opposition kicker is down our side, he runs upto the boards & shouts & bawls at him, or the ref. He always moans about Dobbos kicking for touch, this week he was actually shouting & pointing to where he wanted Dobbo to kick it.

Hes got half a point imo, his distance gained is poor (improved lately though) and so are his kickoffs.

So it's you that stands in front of me!
TBH I do agree with him on some of Dobbos kicking for touch, I often think he should do a Mike Fletcher and use a Tee. However this guy does make me laugh when he's pointing & shouting, "Over here Dobbo, kick it here".
