What a great game of RL,really entertaining game. Thought our lads gave their all today,Had to defend set after set last 20 mins or so. Riley's "try" was definately from a forward pass. Can't believe Alibert gave a goalline drop out after they knocked it on over our try line- Was gutted for the lads after all the effort they put in,they didn't deserve to come away with nothing.

Think that made up for the 2 he disallowed though
I wish the rfl would just get rid of this french ref he is by far the worst ref in the league
To be fair Alibert did ok in a pretty hectic game. The knock on in the in touch was not given after he asked the chocolate fireguard (think hes supposed to be an in goal judge) just shrugged his shoulders and handed him a bottle of water.
Fantastic game all the same, draw would have been the fairest result if only Dobbo hadn't uncharacteristically missed a relatively straight forward conversion.
But in short, attack was v.good against FC and on the rare occassions we saw it yesterday. Defence was great yesterday, hopefully if we carry on like that (and start at the beginning and not on the 14 min mark) we should win far more than we lose, and will give a few a pretty good hammering.
Big mention to Blake Green as well, he looks like he's going to be a big player for us.

great support from you men, brought good numbers, and were very vocal if a tad excitable at times. The noise when Webster broke free on his own 20 (eventually called back by the ref)was incredible I thought the ball maybe was in the hands of usain bolt and a try was a certainty...! he's a big unit but not really the most pacey of individuals..so couldnt understand the JLS type screaming...and did you chant "Easy easy " at 10-14 up ?
anyway its still the best away support from Yorkshire land

good luck for the season
No we most certainly did not! Noisy? - yes, excitable? - possibly. Mental? - well, in a few cases, but the ones that are were too intoxicated to chant!

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE ROBINS FOR THE MOST AMAZING OF EFFORTS AGAINST WARRINGTON. MAYBE IT IS TIME TO CHANGE THE LEAGUE POINTS SYSTEM I WOULD GIVE A TEAM LIKE ROVERS 1 POINT FOR EFFORT FOR FINISHING WITHIN A SCORE OF MONEY BAGS WARRINGTON. I AM CONFIDENT IN THE RETURN FIXTURE WE WILL TAKE THEM TO THE CLEANERS. I CANNOT SEE MANY TEAMS IF ANY BEATING ROVERS COMFORTABLY THIS SEASON UNLIKE OTHER SEASONS.
