There was me thinking it was Danny Tickle who dropped the goal.

Probably the worst game of RL I've seen since we were in the NL's. Dropped ball, knock ons, missed tackles and a general lack of ideas from Les Catalans. I actually forgot Sherwin was on the park for the most part.
I'm not sure if he's correct but Dobson said the penalty count was 5-23 in Les Catalans favour, they certainly had a lot more ball than us. Walters must be one of the worst SL coaches ever, that was a Catalans side that contained quite a few very good players but their confidence is obviously shot.
We did what we had to do and deserved the win, Murrell's try was the highlight and Vella had his best game in a Rovers shirt for quite some time.
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.
A couple of seasons ago Hull had a far more impressive victory against a much stronger Saints side at the KC and the matchwinner was a one Tommy Lee. Though i suppose there is always the chance the Saints S/H was smacked up to the tits at the time
IMHO Hodgson has more potential than Houghton but thats not saying Houghton is poor and if you read that thread you'll also see i said given the choice i'd have BOTH in my team as they both bring different qualities
Now go put your b&w blinkers back on, watch Fridays highlights and don't flick too hard
