Most disappointing. No use of the phrase "mouth-watering" yet. Slightly offset by the same comments on huge strength in depth as last pre-season though. :wink:

Sounds like Josh Hodgson will struggle for a game next season, particularly with the reduction in interchanges.

Clinton impacting off the bench is a mouth watering prospect.
Well, it would be if I had a burger van in Brough.






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.

Well done, that's the ticket.

Or it would be, but it's well-publicised that 2012's Joel Clinton is "highly motivated", "fully firing" and "one of the best props going". More "guns", less "saggy tits" next season. Yum.

I think there will be one more signing and expect it to be Hepi

Was talking to Stanley Gene last night.

He said the player he has been most impressed by in training is Mickey Paea, who he described as "absolutely awesome"!

Keal carlile will prove to be a terrific signing,you have to remember he was 1st choice at huddersfield in front of shaun lunt and luke robinson until his health problems.The guy is very quick off the mark and if needed could be the man to cover at half back if needed,hopefully not.

Was this in some alternate universe...? Whilst Keal has potential at this stage, the only two starting SL appearances he made were whilst Robinson was still recovering from the injury sustained on tour.., his other 3 SL appearances were as sub..

Would like to think he might turn out ok , but given his history he is a risk and is no banker to make it..doubt we
will be seeing too much of him this season..although if the rumours about Mr S not being a big Dobson fan are true then who knows...

On the whole i think many fans (and others..) are over rating Rovers squad by some way, whilst we have a great opportunity to get off to a good start playing the notorious slow starters of Leeds (with the added distraction of Manly), Saints and Warrington together with perpetual strugglers Wakefield early doors we need to be downgrading expectations of the squad and coach a little.., there are more playing numbers than in previous years but not loads of top quality, Paea could be good but the rest of the new ones probably wouldn't look out of place in Salfords squad..

Personally i have no great hope aside from the top eight and the continued development of the young players and Scott Taylor in particular who i am looking at as Rovers next home grown international...

Typically upbeat as ever Baz. I would love to be round yours over Christmas!

Let us have a couple of months of delusion, we have all next season for reality.
