Scrappy game and we almost gave it away but a wins a win

Penalty count was embarrassing as was the attacking play but at least it's 2 points.

A wins a win and I will be celebrating our 2 points today

Amazing result. Enjoy

Nerves shredded, great defensive effort and our first 2 points, GET IN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finished work at 4 and managed to listen to most of the second half on Radio Leeds...sounded a proper arm wrestle that could have gone either way, but it sounded like our defence was excellent...well done boys





And we are in the top 8



Can the season finish now please ?????

We're going to win the league....

You can't beat a win for confidence

I've waited a week after your pathetic tirade - ha ha ha.

Must be gutting you this result.

I could now go onto say we are going to win the league - but basing this on one result would be as cretinous as you and the other culprits especially that arch idiot BOJ04 who instantly damned the team after two results.

Well done lads for putting these posinous individuals in their place now keep it coming.

Congrats Wakey!!!

What and ruin Willzay day

Not really - I've just said great to get two points.

Buts it's nice to see you crawl back from under whatever rock you were hiding after last weeks embarrassment.

Added bonus is sticking it up Peacock for his harsh words against us last season.

That my friend is how revivals start. A team doesn't wake up one day and be good after years of being bad you have to grind out results and earn the right. Hopefully this is the begining of the process. We won three games last season and IMHO none were as difficult as this one appeared to be so a big well done.

I still reckon we have a few more lows to go but hopefully a few more highs will punctuate themicon_biggrin.gif

Good to get the 2 points, great defensive effort but plenty to work on with the ball and with our discipline. Hull KR are awful but you can only beat what is front of you, thankfully they couldn't kick for toffee! A platform to build from.

Your outburst last week where you spat venom at just about anyone you could think of was the nastiest and most gutless peice of so called suppporting I'd ever seenon these forums and that's saying something. What would be the point in responding to such bigotted nonesense, it's not like you want to listen is it? For you to have your nose put out of joint is such a joy.

It must feel great for Smith and the boys to rub the face of no marks like you into the mud

I'm just happy with the win. Hopefully as you say we can kick on from this, nice to get some points in the bag.

I wish we didn't have Warrington next week!

Good to see tick in the 'win' column. I can't work out yet how it's going to go this year. We've played the same three teams as our first three games last year, and got one less win. On the other hand, we've exited the third game with an improvement. Onwards and upwards, as they say.

Didn't go today but listening to all that on Radio Humberside is even more nerve racking than being there



Sounds like some of the last gap defence was terrific especially in the second half. However the high penalty
count amongst other things was very annoying, just wondering if Hicks was his usual pedantic self or most were
justified , can anyone help who attended.

A win for Wakey and Leeds getting thumped tonight and it will be a great day

Didn't expect that....enjoy your evening, like I will after we scraped past London Broncos !

A win's a win

I agree and would also like to add it was nice to see gob sheight Denise Betts also put in his place

I'm delighted with the 2 points and can't fault the commitment of the players. It wasn't pretty but it was enough.

I do think we seriously need to work on discipline, that is 3 matches in a row where we've conceded too many penalties and at the wrong times. Their 3rd try was from a 3rd/4th consecutive set in our half and it is inevitable with that sort of pressure.

I'm happy with the result but think we have a long way to go. Next Friday at Warrington is a massive step up which might be asking too much.

Looking back at today, we aren't too creative in attack and I'm not sure when that will change. Rovers can console themselves with some big names due to comeback, we need to focus on discipline and keep that tight defence going.

Yes, a win is a win as they say, and will take that. Jacob Miler did say in week that a win was just around the corner, and it would give the boys that shot in the arm they need, onward and upward.

It was a very scrappy game, ruined yet again from a very incompetent referee.

Still not creating anything though which is frustrating. Finn did however have a better game. Would still look to give Hall a chance next week.

Today's game was won by the defence, team spirit, and working for each other.

The car journey home was good, my wife is a Rovers fan, and the last time I was the one with a smile was 2012 (Sykes last minute dropgoal)

Well we make it hard for ourselves don't we.
I bet on the win today as I was confident but to be honest we could have won by a lot more.

It was great to see such good defence. Every player was making excellent 1-1 tackles and Rovers only got near our line with penalties.
Some were definitely incorrect decisions from Hicks but some were through our dumb play. We have to tidy that up.

Half backs weren't good enough on last tackle but both were great in defence.

My MoM would be Howarth. Tackled hard and tackled everything. Took his try well too. Top scorer with 3 now.

I thought England was his usual self.
Molloy and Simon made a big difference coming in to the team.

Lyne was great in defence and attack without actually getting a good pass.
I personally thought Johnstone's try should have stood and he had a good game with no mistakes.

All in all, a lot of improvement but a lot more needed too.
