Well done to the lads and the coach. Great win against the team coached by a God and that without Ellis, Paea and Mini. A disallowed try and any number of 'held ups'.
One or two dismissive pre-match predictions on here a little wide of the mark. Let's hope they continue to be.
Some other results going our way too - good day all round.

Brilliant result, with players missing and against a terrible referee. Well done all, a win on Friday an its done and dusted, what a great goal to aim for.

I predicted we'd win by six, well done to the 'team', it gives us a far better chance of making the 8 especially after rovers losing to salford. However, to outright suggest Radford outcoached Powell is just nonsense without a scrap of evidence aside from winning today. Going by that formula Powell has outcoached Radford all season, just look at the win loss columns of both teams, Powell has done it with arguably an inferior squad of players but if it makes you feel better knock one out.

You spend your life on here 'knocking one out' criticising all and sundry. So I'll tell you what - fook off

Very good win. I was pretty confident during the week but with Ellis and Mini both missing I doubted we could get the result.
Disagree about win on Friday and it's done and dusted though. I know what you mean, but we don't want to be thinking like that. No one wants to be in the 8 to make up the numbers, we need to try to win both games to give us some momentum to go and have a good dig in the super 8's.

I agree, what I meant was a win on Friday secures top 8 (I think). That's the goal from the game itself.
That should then mean a little pressure off going into Super 8. And hopefully as you say some momentum.
After all the up's and downs of this season, securing top 8 at KR, whilst condemning them to Middle 8 should be motivation in itself.
The Super 8's will take care of themselves once that pressure valve is lifted.

Great win but still struggle in attack and spreading the ball wide, not creating any space. Luckily abut of magic from Rankin helped us take advantage because without that I doubt we'd have took the lead.
