Quelle Surprise, Mitch Garbutt scores a try.

Leeds fans defending the decision to let him go “but but but he only played 9 games last year”

6/1 garbutt anytime. Kr have a decent side but have been riddled with injuries this year.

Thought Hull KR played my team Leigh NEXT Thursday !!!

Which day mate? Cos it isnt this one.

Pathetic abysmal defence. I said the other week that this Leeds team has no fight in it to do the tough stuff and tonight shows it and that’s on Furner and Sinfield despite the latters boast improving the culture. The Garbutt transfer continues to show Sinfield up every week.

Too many Leeds fans didn’t understand our situation of recruiting on the cheap and sticking with McDermott who would get something out of them. The club buckled to those fans and listened to them and got themselves the NRL coach and the marquee signings to sell season tickets. Should’ve ignored them fans who couldn’t see the long term plan.

I feel a bit for Brad Dwyer as he’s put a good effort in. Watkins clearly isn’t fit to play, yet Furner gets no criticism for playing him, McDermott would’ve been slaughtered for picking him based on his showings this year.

Even when Leeds were bad under McDermott, you still got the feeling they could grind out a win. They just look like walkovers now.

Leeds last tackle plays are horrendous.

We are probably still going to lose but it’s funny knowing certain Wakey fans will be frustrated seeing Hurrell score a hat trick which will only serve to Sky bigging him up more and him probably being in the Dream Team this year.

Hull KR throwing this away!

Jack Walker doing his best to make sure Leeds have no chance of coming back.

‘Eff off Jack Walker. Gotcha on the Leeds board will defend him to the heavens like he does all his favourites like Hardaker (other ppl conspired to get him out of the club....because obviously they attacked a student) and Ward (Watkins got the captaincy ahead of him because of his mental health even Ward had more well documented issues).

3 kick offs out on the full is pathetic.

Jack walker is nearly as overrated as Stevie “sicknote” ward or Tom Johnstone

Think Lolohea is worse than Walker tbh, he's rubbish!

I'll hold my hand up to that he's had his best game with no mistakes in this game, he must of been told to control himself at the play the ball, how ever it didn't stop himself shoot out of the line after 2 1/2 mins missing the tackle and was lucky to not have it run through the line.
One thing I have never said his attack is poor only his defense, what will happen if he gets a injury

I knew as soon as we were being well beaten Walker would pull up with injury, common theme. One of the worst for not having the fight in him, fine last week when we were leading, up against it he’ll take ‘a knock’

Have to feel sorry for the likes of Hurrell playing in this Leeds team, there’s so many players who are nowhere near good enough. Watkins has always been a bit overrated but he looks finished, Lolohea is terrible and Leeds should look to get rid, JJB has been finished for years and is stealing a living and then you’ve got all the bang average players like Donaldson, Sutcliffe and Briscoe. A massive overhaul needed but the main priority should be a competent halfback who can control a game.

That’s the issue. Is he just unlucky with injuries or is he just “soft”? I can imagine Jamie Peacock or even Kevin Sinfield breaking their necks and being paralysed but still packing down for the scrum because Leeds needed them

The lineup isn’t spectacular and not GF winning worthy but certainly no worst other teams in the lower half of the table. Tonight’s game wasn’t down to the difference in quality as there isn’t much on paper, it was down to effort and intensity. You can have a poorer lineup but if you run and tackle harder and faster you stand a chance.

This Leeds team don’t want to fight for the coach and Director of Rugby and that’s down to those two men especially Sinfield whose made a big effort to publicly say how much he’ll rebuild the squad over the next few years.

Sinfield’s problem is he had no interest in taking over the team Leeds currently had, he’s always been looking ahead to the team he could have in 3/4 years time with the next big crop of youngsters coming through. Problem is he was always going to need the current squad for the first 18 months and he immediately came out on his appointment and said they weren’t good enough, need replacing and their culture and effort was wrong, even though they pulled off a GF win just several months prior. You wonder why they don’t perform for him.

No not unlucky, just doesn’t have the heart, pretty much a flat track bully. He has the talent above Ash Golding, but Golding would give you 10x the effort.

That was my feeling too

For me, that was a weird game.

I put it on at half time, saw the score & thought, this could get messy. But all I saw for the first twenty was Leeds scoring tries & giving themselves half a chance, I then did some more important stuff, to come back to a heavy H.K.R. win - what went wrong?

I've been critical of Leeds this year, because they seem to give up when they go behind, but that spell in the second half, they looked decent.

Leeds were bluddy awful tonight and I really can see them making some panic decisions if they're not sitting out of the bottom 2 by Magic......

We’ve been making panic decisions since last June/July.

Rovers looked good in attack and won't be playing against a centre like Hurrell every week.Plenty of speed and a decent pack. Linnett and Drinkwater slowly getting better and with still plenty missing through injury was a good win tonight.We still have a wobble in us and when Leeds got a foot in game 2nd half whilst Hauraki and Garbutt off I started to worry. But we won cosily enough and really should have been more.. pretty happy overall
