My punt

Is Carvell fit enough to play yet?

yes; played for the Under 20s last week at South Wales and came through unscathed

Brilliant we need his beef in the pack with Cooper out

Can't wait for Sunday now, Mitchell & Tyke to miss outfor me here.

I think Tony Smith is playing it cool with regards to Evans. There would be a lot of expectation of him in a home game. I would give him a chance in away games like Quins, wakey etc if they are not televised. He will get his chances though.
We know that KR are a very workmanlike team but a lot of the good things they do comes off Dobson. Shut his options down and we should be ok.

Do you think Blythe could play wing? or is that too out there?

Anyone who has seen him enough.

.
I think you need to keep up to date, you are correct in your evaluation of Rovers as regards us been a workmanlike team, but we currently have an outstanding second row partnership, probably one of the best in super league in Galea And Newton, a very good backline with experience and pace, plus we also have new boy Blake geen (Stand off age 23) who looks to be an outstanding prospect and appears to be forming a very formidable halfback partnership with Dobbo,(watch this space).
I aggree that in the past most plays went through Dobson, though having said that, many teams were still unable to stop him, now however, with Blake green we have other options and are far from one dimensional, as Hull Fc found to their cost last week, i am looking forward to this game and i believe it will be a cracker even though you have a few injuries.

I agree with your statement to an extent. But none of your backline would make it into Wigan, Wire, Saints or Leeds.

4 cracking over seas players there to go with your other 7? 8?

I watched Rhys Evans in Cardiff - looks good but still a bit lightweight for an SL centre. He is not even as heavy as Chris Riley, while Blythe has ten kilos over both of them. Can't underestimate the importance of this against a side like HKR. One lad who does look the part - size, weight, speed, skill, confidence, is Rhys Williams, and I bet he'll be straight back from Crusaders once his month's loan is up.

No Rhys Evans again?

Having said that there's no point playing him. A couple of good performances and the Welsh RU will snap him up!

I don't see it in Rhys Williams. Crap hands.

Good finishing though

Is this the super duper all stars team your all raving about on your board?

What're you reading?

i think hull rovers have put together a good suad for such a small club.well done hull rovers!

any new news on your injuries? was a freaky way to start the season, all them players picking knocks up in one game.

Bridge, King and Cooper out injured with Carvell, Riley and Blythe coming in

a couple of quality guys coming in then.

His hands are so bad that he scored a try for Crusaders within five minutes of the kick-off in Cardiff.

In what way does that prove his ability to pass a rugby ball?
