Good luck tonight from a Rovers fan, gonna be two busted teams that take to the pitch I reckon, we're missing a good few as are yourselves.
Finishing 5th or 6th is a great result for both sides when you compare were we've finished recently so win or lose its a been a great season for us.

Prior would benefit from a week off and Hurrell & Lui need a run out if they're to be relied upon next week. Other than that it's a meaningless game. Just one to get through without injuries or bans.

false position though inst it for HKR
you miss playing the top 3 sides Saints,Catalan and Warrington and played the pointless at the time bottom club Leigh 3 times

Pretty sure we've played Catalans 3 times actually aswell as both Saints and Warrington away from home but don't let that spoil your bitter post. Anyway this topic is about two playoff teams so run along Pal.

Good luck to KR. A club with loads of Leeds links and fighting the good fight in hard circumstances.

Honestly some people lack grace. Leeds is a relatively privileged club - all one sport isn’t it?

Well ive enjoyed watching KR this year. They play the game the right way and are entertaining.

I am not your pal neither bitter
just pointing out the system is flawed and your position is false given you have missed playing Saints,Catalan and Warrington yet played winless at the time and bottom club Leigh three times.

TBF the bitter post came courtesy of an FC fan. But yeah, best of to rovers, they've been good value this year. Every team in the six deserves to be there imo

Has any other team played the league leaders Catalans three times this season? You've claimed twice now that we've missed playing them but we've played them three times Pal, losing all three by a combined 10 points aswell.
You've played the top three 6 times, we've played them 5 times, so not that much difference.
I think the fact that your team promised so much but delivered so little has really clouded your judgement

Any way let's not derail the topic.

So we have Leeming at hooker and Hurrell off the bench. Agar clearly reads me. Hopefully Lui does the kicking so Myler doesn’t have to.

I hope Myler and Broadbent assume the same positions with and without the ball instead of swapping.

Yep.

This is such a weird fixture, and I feel strangely up for this game. Giddy up lads.

Anyone any idea how kendal didn't give leeds the ball then?

No idea. He must be blind!

Great footwork from the old man. Awful penalty given by kendal for the drag into touch

For God sake Handley!

Good half barring a few moments where we lacked composure. Lui very good, struggled to make yardage at times so hope mik and tet are good to go next week. Donaldson has had a good impact with the ball.

Enjoyed that, defending 3 sets of six on our line was a great effort, we seem to br playing KR at their own game and doing it better than them.

Lui is having a stormer

We have been better side score reflects the half, only gave them that gift try, superb ankle tap by Handley made up for his brain fart earlier. Then we score of the back of it, thats a solid lead to lose now.

So.

Newman looks awesome, we need him signed up for a long time.

Holroyd again will be immense in a couple of years.

Lui having his best season for us, when on the pitch. Never seen such a broken man play so well.

We miss beef. Mik is 50% or our beef gap. We need more punch. Must sort this for next year.

Smith going well.

Mustapha getting about in D.

Hurrell is not who KR will want to see come on.

Theyre capable of a come back though so we need to keep playing and not go in defence mode

Agree about Newman - awesome athlete

Wot that’s the only thing you agreed with?

Seriously he looks awesome this year. Can’t credit him enough coming back from that injury in this way, and give him another pre-season with a title-chasing side…

If we sort our prop problem I’d fancy us against anyone next year.

With the way the game continues to go explosive agility rather than speed is king, newman causes chaos too with his competitive strength.
