Positives it wasn't a smashing and Edgell error aside, first half was decent. Lumb also decent. We also did defend well in the first half.
At least this draws a line under another poor season. Its going to take a while to build this squad up. It needs some serious investment and thats not going to happen overnight.

There's some on here that said he's international standard, but in reality he's only good enough to carry kit bags and even then he wouldn't want to pass it on.

We looked gassed after an hour because of the amount of stupid errors we made. As well as fitnes, the off season needs to see basic skills drilled into them.
Leeds Rhinos? 8 for you, Leeds Rhinos! You go, Leeds Rhinos.
Arthur said they'll start pre-season next week to give them an idea of what it will be like and then have a break. He mentioned focusing on doing basics under fatigue as something they will practice. He's said the attitude is good but clearly not impressed with fitness and execution of even the most basic jobs. Some players are not going to like this. Which is a good thing - far too many seemingly happy to continue to stuff up every week.

You guys came to play tonight and were unlucky not to be ahead at HT. The young FB was exceptional and then that awful error to gift Rovers a try just before HT. It might make him it might break him..I suspect the former.
Beforehand I was telling Rovers fans how good a player Rhys Martyn is and not just a great goalkicker. He then proceeded to run our right edge ragged and miss a straightforward goal kick
Second half Rovers raised the intensity and ran out comfortable winners. Good luck for 2025.

I suspect after 2 weeks of preseason some might want to leave! far too many in there comfort zone and I think arthur will make a huge difference both mentally and physically in preseason. a few home truths will be told too. exactly what's needed

You can see BA’s not here to mess around and continue in the same vein. I hope you’re right Tad and a few decide they can’t take it so leave, lord knows we need more turnover of players than simply those who are OoC.
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

as others have said I expect mom, sangare, goudemond to go. I expect newman to get a rocket up his backside too. the quality is there but his attitude stinks. it's hardly side before self as Billy bremner once said! I think arthur will make a real player of him
