I've seen a few highlights of HKR games this season. Are a few players carrying a bit of extra weight?






Mac out!

Ellis certainly was before injury. Abdull looks bit beefier than Broncos last season.Other than that the pack could do with bit more weight and aggression as a whole. The Cas pack on Thursday is good mix of size and power but very aggressive with it. Our pack just seems very average and other than Garbutt on one leg and Storton at start of career unable to burst a packet of crisps let alone a tackle .

That’s not fair even I can burst a packet of crisps but maybe not a tackle LOL

I do believe the club also receives £1.8m TV money....and are hosting 3 extremely lucrative concerts this year.

With over 6,000 season tickets holders Rovers will comfortably enjoy record income in 2020.

Rovers have money to spend but the home market is sparse and we only have 1 non fed vacancy and even that has only become available because of the situation with Mose.

I have no doubt that there will be new arrivals mid season but Tony Smith is prepared to wait.






I couldn't hear the robin sing if not for you.

Let's put the Leeds game aside for a moment - too many things went wrong that day including losing a HB in warm up.

The Hudds game - it wasn't through lack of trying. The Hudds goal line defence was top class and Sezer has brought s new lease of life to them. Yes, Hudds have only played 3 games but they are undefeated and come the end of the season, they might be this year's suprise team in the top 5 (but equally, maybe not).

Injuries of top squad players is not helping either.

But.....I still think we'll turn it around.

Cas might be a hard game without any seasoned playmakers but if the team work as a unit it might just be enough. Plus we're at home.

Ellis might be back for Wigan. Dagger is a decent FB. And Litten was Hooker in the one win this season.

What went wrong was not putting last season to bed earlier and therefore missing out on possible new signings for this season.






And the Geek shall inherit the Earth!

Did we not pay over a hundred grand cash for the young players from Bradford?

It's hardly a must win this early in the season against Cas and when we'll have so many youngsters in key positions.

Even though SL clearly knew the Toronto game would have to be postponed for the CC but still planned it, right now, with so many key injuries, it's quite handy it has been. That game IS a must win.
