It has been a while but right there is the Hull KR fans we know and love
Thank God they aren't all like you.

Hull KR are a strong side as my team found out earlier in the CC. We matched them for a long period though and the score line wasn't really a reflection on how close we got to beating them. I think Leigh will go very close and might just pip them if Hull KR come into the game a little flat after investing so much for the semi final. Sometimes that 'flat' performance comes a game or two after but either way I expect it will be a cracker at LSV.
I think the start will be important for all clubs in these 8's, any club losing a few matches early on will really feel the pressure, particularly if they're a SL club.

Hull kr looked very good yesterday and I think they will have no problems staying in super league. Think we will give them a game but will come up a bit short but the rest of the games are very much winnable if we get anything from the hull game it will be a bonus.

I too thought Warrington was poor. Kr defended well. Gamelan simple for Leigh, Run at Kelly and attack their left edge. That looked vulnerable. Kay and Armstrong might have a good day!

HKR are a very good team with some very good players ,why folk think they won't be up for the 8's or will be a flat is beyond me, the 8's qualifiers are more important than Wembley to Rovers , it's their bread and butter,I think Leigh will give them a good game on Saturday ,will Leigh win?My heart says yes, but my head says no,as for getting to SL I take nowt for granted and getting there will be a very big achievement for Leigh,again I'm not confident about this , maybe I'm just a pessimist.
In the cup game our forwards were comfortably a match for theirs. The real damage was done by Campese and Kelly. Stop Kelly kicking at all costs. Mantellato got 4 tries.......mainly from accurate kicking and his height is a problem. Strangely, next time we play them its possible that only Gaskell will feature from the backs that played that day. I'm sure Leigh will know how to stop Kelly playing.

People said we were a one man team when campese was playing then when he got injured we won 4 on the trot now they say we're a one man team because of Kelly the fact is were inconsistent but we have beaten Wigan twice wire twice St. Helens Catalans twice so we're not to bad just hope the rovers who did that turn up

Funny how no one on RL fans actually said that at the time or since. Salford were so decimated with injuries and suspensions they were in 4th place in Super League and the on form team at the time. And Wakey only managed to spank us when we handed them the ball at half way on the 3rd tackle every set, once we stopped doing that we got on top easy and no amount journey men just looking for something to do to pass the time till the end of the season will change that for them.
Truth is Leigh are a Super League team in all but name, if you actually watched some rugby you'd be able to see that clearly.

I think most rovers fans know what to expect next week and it won't be a stroll in the park
