yea gutted at the end, but the bigger picture says good result for us

To be honest didn't think much to cas at all we looked clueless most the time and still snatched a draw

Jesus, Castleford must of been poor not to beat that lot!

Interesting game at Wakey, Sentimata Sa man of the match, Howarth scored a try and Jones-Bishop dropped the ball 3 times!!!

SA started like that for us, then went downhill fast,

Early days and missing Lynch, Massey, Mariano and Shenton for much of it though, in poor conditions. They're a team we'd need to reel in to have a chance of making the top 6. Decent result for Rovers though, certainly.

Anyone know the attendances for the round 1 games ? Can't seem to find them

Leeds 16,168
Wigan 13,346
Hull FC 12,265
Hull KR 11,011
Saints 10,408
Wakefield 5,240

Decent attendance at Rovers considering their form?

It was, augmented by an impressive away support.

2000+ freebies

Yeah if you remember KR had a record attendance for opening game last year but it soon fell off sharply. Probs some freebies involved there as well.

Good to see +10,000 for 5 out of the 6 games this weekend, no matter how they were achieved. Unfortunately, rugby league is not blessed with billionaires bank rolling the sport, so the more people attending, the better. Hope it continues.

Moran put on free travel to anyone that wanted it, end result was 13 coaches going over to Headingley, great gesture, that would have been peanuts to a guy of his wealth.

Nice touch. Wonder if our owner will be flying us to France this week?

No, but he might pay your bus fare to Caravan Park.

Shenton out for most of the season after Boudebza tackle results in ACL damage. Really like Shenton, gutted for him.

boudebza up for 1 or 2 game ban, seems unjust when a player like shenton will miss the majority of the season, i do wish the RFL would grow a pair and get tough like the RFU when it comes to handing out bans

I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you haven't seen it, but there was absolutely nothing in the tackle. Unfortunate for Shenton but a total accident.

i haven't but will judge tonight if they show it, not just saying this for boudebza, but it should apply to all, the rfl are to0 weak handing out punishment or punishing players for something then the next week another player gets off for doing the same thing

Can't disagree with that, however we can't start handing out bans that match the duration of any injury, there are so many other factors that come into play.

could be a case of powell shouting his mouth off and the rfl appeasing him by putting the charge in!


Having seen the incident, ill take it back and defend the rovers player, nothing sinister in it, just frustration from powell i feel

probably get a game just to appease powell
