They'll be calling for that soon! Morgan out, lets have him at Hull!

16/1 to finish bottom Bet365

Wakefield 6/4
Crusaders RL 5/2
Catalan Dragons 6/1
Salford 6/1
Hull FC 16/1
Harlequins RL 22/1
Castleford 28/1
Bradford 33/1

The difference is, though, that if Morgan left tomorrow Rovers would still be in a much better position than when he arrived. His performance over a few years now has bought him a bit of faith and breathing space, Agar less so.

Shorter odds than Harlequins, now isn't that an indicator of how things are?

Not really, we are currently shorter odds than the unbeaten league leaders to finish bottom, go figure.

I noticed that

I'll have a bet with anyone that you finish above quins whether Agar goes or not, as much as it pains me to say it I don;t think you're as bad as you think you are, couple of wins and it'll all look brighter.

lets be honest, if we played quins on friday. i beleive they'd beat us.....that for me is an embarrasment considering what rob powell has had to work with..but fair play to them...

So conversely, the bookies now think we'll finish 10th, which is probably about right unless Agar goes soon.

Top after 3 games means nothing. By that logic Harlequins and Cas should have shorter odds to finish top than Saints.

Bookies are quoting 16/1.................il give you 25/1 PM me let me know how much you want on !!!!!!

What is there to figure?
I take it you're not a betting man....

Whoa I offered it first, I could do with some easy money!

The same Harlequins that are currently sat top of the league?

It amazes me how some people constantly rate a team on how they have performed in the past, and I assume therefore their perceived reputation. Harlequins, and a more immediate worry for us, Crusaders are both very good teams this year and both could have good runs in the playoffs.

Rubbish They are top on merit. It certainly doesn't mean nothing, either in the here and now, or for expections over the entire season.

I'm not rating them on their past performances, I'm rating them on my opinion of the quality of their squad. It is not as good as ours and should not be considered less likely to finish bottom of the pile than ours, regardless of the opening results (and really, there's only the Harlequins win over Leeds that is an out of the ordinary one).

The odds are reflective of our performances IMO, as even now we should still be far less likely to finish bottom than them on paper.

I`d swop positions right now.

Fair enough, nothing was unfair. But it still means little. They have had a very good win over Leeds, a decent result over Crusaders, and beat a poor Catalans performance. The table is very misleading after so few games, so to gloss over the fact that we are now considered more likely to prop up the table than them is ok because they are the league leaders after only 3 games is a bit of denial IMO.

But would you swap squads, though? That's more the point I'm trying to make.

No I wouldn`t in all fairness,but it would still be better at the top,even at this stage of the season.

Imagine how good agar would be with that quins squad

in your opinion its not as good as ours.....3 or 4 injury prone highly paid players...do quins have those??? a highly inept(according to most) coach......does quins have one of those??????
a bunch of players who are willing to put the effort in win or lose............do we have those??? i think not

i reckon the rfl have done us a favour by giving wakey and crusaders a points deduction this season as we would look a damn sight worse in the league if they hadnt

Two years ago this weekend we went top of the league by winning at Huddersfield. It was great at the time but within a few weeks it was meaningless as we started to slide down the table.

Fair comment, and your letting him name his price!.......maybe thats why ive not had a reply then


Ihad high hopes he was going to be sponsoring a cruise holiday, at the very least!!
