About time we got some biff back in our forwards I think its Clintons influence keep up the good work looking forwards to knocking those Leeds and black and white forwards around a bit

I think our set of forwards are finally gelling well, its nice to see the skill levels of Galea, Watts and Clinton, but the whole pack seems to have a 'toughness' about it recently.

Interesting point, a certain commentator suggested numerous times yesterday that Wakefield were 'battering' Hull KR.

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!

He was talking bollox, we were not battered, our forwards didn't take a backward step and built a platform for victory. Clinton, Watts and Vella all made good yards and took some stopping and Lovegrove got stuck in with the Wakefield 'bully boys' Moore and Korkidas.
You don't win a SL game 46-14 if your forwards were battered.

The only time Wakey had a spell was the 4 sets on Rovers line just before Cookie put Newton clean through to go 90 yards, they had one or two other small spells but never battering.

I must have dreamt yesterday then
Motto of the week -
It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.

There was a spell just after Wakefield had scored there 2 tries when they really lifted their intensity and Moore and King were really dishing it out. Scott Taylor got smashed a couple of times as did Kris Welham and Rovers forwards for the 1st time in the game were not getting any go forward. It was ended by a great run by Clinton who broke the line and after that Rovers took control again.
