totally agree with the duck move ratchit to hb with brown move roberts to dallam lane selling programmes..we looked far more dangerous with ratchit at hb on friday

If anything I've been most critical of Hill...giving away cheap penalties...however he wasn't the worst culprit...that was BMM.

Good on yer. We do not want the sort of "support" which has reared it's ugly head at Leigh & Hull KR. Get behind your team.

totally understand your reasoning but having watched a hour of tripe served up at hull by this lot its only natural to voice anhonest opinion of what youve just watched...as for supporting the team we all do be it sat at home or in the stands..lets hope we as wire fans are posting good things about the team come 10 oclock friday night

I don't know why some people think it will help the team by slagging them off. Leave it to people who know what they are doing.

Do you want a forum of obedient, conformist members who just trot out the "everything is great in sunshine land" type posts?

It's a forum for views, even ones you may not like.

I hope we are not going to end up with a top notch hooker having gone for a much needed halfback ala Monas and to a much lesser degree Sullivan.
Appreciate the lad still looks crocked and it is a new country, new club, new team (both for him and us), new management setup, new competition with different styles of play BUT I would like to see more glimpses of class than the odd nugget we have seen so far. The flopometer is still in the cupboard, will give him another month.
Really hope he comes good.

Perhaps BWW broadband is lagging.
Being unable to waste some of his life searching to try to back up a useless point, which is only banter anyway, must be killing him.

With the problem we have with the backline is there no room for Harvey Livett, he has surely got a shout?

IF Roberts is match fit or not isn't the issue for me. It's his decision making that's miles off and that will be the same no matter how much he improves his fitness.

Based on what I've seen he's another Rodwell as damning as that may be. Livett is not the answer to any of our problems

Imagine writing someone off after 4 games whilst playing with an injury. Our fans are idiots.

Anyone writing Roberts off hasn't seen him play when fit. He is one of the best halves in the world defo top 5/6 in the Nrl last year but because he hasn't hit the ground running and set the HJ on fire in his first few games lets slate him. It makes me laugh how people can be so accurate without any knowledge

I think we're all aware of his fitness or lack of it.
My query is his inclusion in the team while his condition is closer detrimental than 'setting the HJ alight'...or any other ground for that matter.
That's why I'm pinning hopes that he's a Trent Barratt at worse.

Do you mean Dwyer? And how does Sullivan fit into any sentence involving good players, unless as contrast?

Perhaps I should have just left it with Monas, Sully was disappointing.

You can’t be talking about Barrett at Wigan, he was a sensation for us and certainly never looked lazy or overweight. Maybe I’m missing a joke.

If Tyrone Roberts (or any halfback in superleague) has half as good a season as Barrett did for us in 2008/2009 he’ll be going very well.

I think what was meant was that Barrett was good even though he didn’t quite reach his NRL reputation.

So if Roberts can look half as good as what he did in he NRL we’ll have one of he better half-backs in the league.

I meant Trent Barrett alright.
Yes a sensation, well very good for sure....but when he first arrived he was out of shape, and there was plenty unhappy pies for a period.

That's where I make the comparison...I hope Roberts is the Wire version of Barrett.

Can he currently get any poorer.
One or 2 half decent kicks but Rocket Rodwell had more heart that Roberts is showing presently.

shocking Performance by Roberts part from a couple of kicks. Why do people keep mentioning when the pitches get firmer he will come in to his own , when the business end of the season the pitches ain't great, he hasn't shown much at all

He needs to eat some salad....

What I've seen of him, he's pinching a living.
And the great minds of NRL were gutted that he was coming here ...taking the slash.
Grounds firming up? This joker (because that's what he is) is taking us for a HUGE ride. He could play touch rugby on an athletics running track, and he'd still be taking the pee..Firm grounds my ar53

I can spot a fraud a mile off. Like putting a Woollie's picture of the Mona Lisa, over a Widnesian's fireplace,and expecting people to say "is it the real thing"

Like barba and sandow before him give him time. Both barba and sandow looked woeful in their first 5/6 games. I wanted MUCH more from him tonight but lets give him a few more weeks eh? He's an attacking player and for the rest of the team that's clearly a work in progress.

It would be the case for every player to enjoy playing in drier conditions etc, I am sure Danny Richardson who wouldn’t be earning a 5th of what this joker is, will also enjoy the firmer pitches.

Come back Patton all is forgiven
