The first half was p1ss poor in all areas. Brough is spent and 99% of us think so but I cannot see a change coming soon. Miller has youth and speed and ran a bit more direct in the second half but there is zero understanding between them.
Hull KR have a thinking coach and unless we accept what is wrong, we are totally boraxed.

Thought kt was pick of the forwards personally but thought kirmond ran him close.

Was a slightly better performance by the pack , but backs generally have been shocking - since hi hand injury brough has been a shadow of hi self , miller has been poor all season , Reynolds didn’t make the grade, Hampshire at least tries.

It’s remarkable with the exception of Huddersfield the last time we won a game was April 22 nd , it’s been worst season of last ten years - Chester seems to have lost the plot

2015?

I’m throughly deflated tonight. Lost the plot with our lot after Hull’s last try. Bloody shambles and no leadership at all under sticks afterwards. We look worryingly beaten

Exactly Sacred. Bizzare selections with yet again players out of position.

Chris Green?

Our defence was decent for most of it, but we never looked like scoring. When Rocky passed the ball to Tumavave, I thought we were on top and at that point it could have been a different game.

But they put Brough under pressure each time. We didn't put Sneyd under pressure. Thankfully, Hull misfired today.

I just think we look a spent force. We're playing relegation rugby. My worry is that Hull KR will be safe by the time they play London, by beating us mainly, and may take the eye off the ball when they play London. Next week is all or nothing. Rovers win and they'll let London in. We win and we're safe, pretty much so, as KR and London will take points off each other in the penultimate game.

Except I can't see us scoring tries, and Rovers are going well.

lol

There are so many players who simply aren't producing anything, it's difficult to pick who to drop and how many of them.

For me Miller is 1st out. I dread the ball reaching him on the last play of any set.

Yeah, the Miller/Finn partnership was far superior to what we have now and Miller looks to have suffered from it. I'm not saying he's not SL standard but he does seem to have lost some form, so for his, and the team's sake, I'd drop him.

It’s been the story for month now. I broadly agree with you, effort and fitness are not the issue it’s basic team work.

I don’t agree with you regarding Miller, sorry but he’s gash at the moment imo.

Apart from the well finished try from Hampshire's kick, Miller was pretty dire today. Brough wasn't much better.

Sorry my mistake, slim pickings indeed.

Unfortunately Brough seems to have lost it. We managed towards the back end of last season with Miller and Rocky and the addition of Brough hasn't proved successful. Brough was described as the final piece of the jig saw but its not happened.

Brough wasn't better at all.

Miller put the pass in the gave us the break for his try too.
He's played better in the past of course but I thought he was ok today.

In all the trys we scored Brough had no involvement with all of them down the left other than Hampshire’s individual effort. It is time to revert back to Miller and Hampshire, with Escare at full back.

Plenty of effort but poor application and organisation on the field led to our downfall today, still offering nothing in attack and was easily read with telegraph passes.Our attacking line is still as flat as a fart with players receiving the ball stood still .Sneyd had far too much time with ball in hand for my liking, and should have been harassed every time he took the pass .Thought hull were going to put a big score on us but credit to the lads the heads didn’t go down and kept having a dig.
In all honesty I think we’ll scrape through this season,then it’s got to be a change at the top as it looks like he’s taken this team as far as he can

Well plenty of views on our half backs so far and I think everyone agrees that one or the other must be dropped or maybe both.


Its now Chris Chester call, and as the saying goes the worst thing he can do, is to do nothing.

Miller has stopped taking on the line . He either passes straight away or run sideways and give a hospital pass to one of the forwards .In the practice we were drawing a man and passing to put a player through the gap but that seemed to be forgotten in the game . I know it's difficult when a teams defence is moving up quickly but that can be countered by the attacking line standing deep and timing runs on to the ball. But what do I know. I have only been watching rugby for 60 years.

I’d like to drop both but i’m not sure thats feasible right now, so i’m going for dropping Brough and reinstating the Miller & Hampshire partnership that worked alright last year.

Well at least we have that option. Lets be thankful that our crazy coach failed in his plan a few weeks back when he tried to offload Hampshire to Shudds in return for Roberts.

Would any other sl club keep there coach ater 11 defeats in 12

abimal all season - miller is ne - time to move him on and get a young nrl half

no chance against hull kr at there place

Absolutely agree. Our right edge yields nothing, yet Brough (and to some extent Hampshire) play that way. Tanginoa fills that left second row berth really well with Tupou in the centre.

Alternatively if Chester sticks with Brough then Atkins has to come in for Lyne, because something needs to change down that side. With the service BJB is getting we may as well stick Pauli Pauli on that wing.
