Agreed. Sure I must be wrong though.

Indeed, and 8 from 26 would be our worst opening half of the season since 1999.
But let's enjoy today's win for now

| Good win and I was over the moon, credit where it is due and I hope they back it up Monday.
However
I was worried by the amount of time we spent on there line and did not convert that pressure into points. In the first half they got into our twenty twice and scored, that was worrying and they can tighten things up. The attack looks better but we had better not try the kick to Whiting against Wire eight times, as an attacking option that one is out of the bag now. I was amazed that KR gave Longy that much room and that many attempts to get a succesful kick away on the right wing, the top teams will never allow us to do that.
The addition of Gleeson has shown up what we have been missing in the centre's and clearly it should only improve with time. Beating the old enemy is always a good thing and I do feel to day we should have been into the 50s as KR had no answer to the power up front.
Moa is becoming a real forceful player and if only we could learn to back up he will become a very good off loader . Rich Horne was a threat today and no doubt the attention of Murrell gave others some freedom.

If it wasn't for some great last ditch defence by Latus (mainly) we would of passed 50 points.

| I meant that because Murrell was tied up trying to deep throat Horney it left others free (inc Longy) to work some magic, one of Justins plans that did not work out.

Oh here we go, okay you beat us and outplayed us all game today but lets be honest, how many players are we missing and how many players are you missing today? Weve got Newts, Mason, Brisc and Colbon (who would of made a massive difference considering how much you kicked towards Latus) all missing from the squad. With hardly any if not no players missing out of your squad today, considering you only just beat us if it want for the final 10 minutes isnt quite as much of an accumplishment as you make out. When you come to our place all the players that missed out today because of injury and passport problems (with the acception of Mason and the rumors with toulon) will be playing and then we will see who wins. As the first game of the season will tell you, we have the better team when everyone is fit and able to play. Plus we had Dobbo in who has only just came back from a long term injury so hes not going to be up to scratch. by the time your at our place to play us all the players will be fit and playing there best and then we'll see who outplays who. All i can say is enjoy the moment and make the most of it while you can!

If we had colbon in the side you wouldnt of isolated that left hand side as much, cockayne didnt hae the best of games today but yes i agree brisc wasnt playing well before his injury but i dunno if ben played better then he might of today. So are you telling me when we both have a fully fit side and everyone able to pick your still better? All i can do to that final comment is laugh to myself and

Sure he was being criticised by quite a few of your fans after you lost away to ST's. Mainly to do with his handling of the high ball.
The targeting of Latus never payed off, down to very good defence by him and the other covering players, but the kicks did put them under a lot of pressure.
TBF i'm surprised we didn't target Fox more, with his lack of confidence at the moment.

Indeed, we won, I was happy we did, but we still didn't play that well, lets not forget Rovers are a club in total meltdown at the moment thanks to Mason/Cockayne, no way was Dobson 100% fit either.
We'll see what happens in Warrington on Monday.

In fairness they have just beaten Leeds and ran Wigan close and we also had Gleeson not fit, Long playing injured and Westerman carrying a knock.

I thought we played well TBH. Rovers may not have been very good but we showed some good stuff in attack. Defence on our own line still a worry, although two tries were conceded to huge forward passes.
I expect us to lose heavily at Wire. We've just played a high intensity Derby game and they've had a training session against Salford. Plus we'll be missing Long who was my MOM yesterday. If we can keep the score respectable I'll be reasonably happy TBH.
