1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance?
Excellent; better than most of us were expecting.

2 - Who are the key players for you?
There's a few but I would pick out Michael Dobson and Paul Cooke.

3 - Young star to watch?
Liam Watts

4 - Player you would most like to get rid of?
Sean Long!

5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan?
You won't find many bad words said about Justin from Rovers fans.

6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year?
The two derby matches.

7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why?
I would imagine Sean Long will become enemy number one from this season.

8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010?
Not particularly but there again we could have gone out and signed a load of over the hill Aussies and an injury prone former St Helens player.

9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue?
It's effing marvellous and yes of course it will continue.

10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform?
Probably top six, we're still a club that's growing both on and off the field. Last year surprised us all and if we can achieve similar or better we'll all be delighted but I think we all know it's going to be much tougher this year.

Name:

1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance?
Excellent, we overachieved in only our 3rd season in Super League.
2 - Who are the key players for you?
Dobson, Newton, Galea.
3 - Young star to watch?
Scott Taylor
4 - Player you would most like to get rid of?
David Mills
5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan?
Superb Coach. Argubly the best in the league.
6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year?
Castleford away and Murrayfield Magic (because i'm going for the first time)
7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why?
Ryan Bailey - Flat track bully
8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010?
The players who we've brought in are young and can develop, but we still need a prop. When/If Clinton arrives I'll be content with the 2010 squad.
9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue?
I'm not sure about superiority, we did well over the last two seasons but the teams will be much closer this season.
10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform?
7th. We will be tough to beat, but when it comes to the crunch I think we are lacking something.

1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance?
Very well, amazing considering how long we've been in the league.

2 - Who are the key players for you?
Michael Dobson, Clint Newton, Jake Webster

3 - Young star to watch?
Josh Hodgson

4 - Player you would most like to get rid of?
David Mills

5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan?
Pure quality. Superb young coach, who can only get better.

6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year?
Leeds Home or Away

7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why?
Sam Tomkins, because he's very average yet the media think he was crafted by God

8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010?
With the imminent addition of Clinton yes. Think the average age of the squad being lower is fantastic

9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue?
I think it's fantastic athough not really bothered what they do. And yes it can continue

10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform?
Think we can replicate last year personally, 4th-5th, think we've been treat harsh in the media just because we haven't needed to sign Matt Orfords or Craig Fitzgibons

1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance?

Ok, we clearly over-acheived because we ain't that good. As someone in this weeks HDM pointed out, we got lucky because EVERY side we played was plagued by injuries.



2 - Who are the key players for you?

Briscoe, Dobson, Newton.

3 - Young star to watch?

Liam Watts

4 - Player you would most like to get rid of?

Heather.

5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan?

God-like genius who turns an average team (see above comments) into occasional world-beaters (or wife-beaters if you like).

6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year?

Wigan tomorrow night. (take 1 game at a time!)

7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why?

Used to be Yeaman, but recent cheap shots have decided that Calderwood should now be bestowed that honour.

8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010?

Aye. Cloth cutting is all part of the game.

9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue?

I can take it or leave it to be honest. It's not exactly taken a lot has it? - I liken it to being referred to as a better GP than Harold Shipman. Big deal! I'd expect this year's derbies to go with home advantage.

10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform?

7/8th, performances ranging from excellent to abysmal (probably against Huddersfield again!).

1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance?
We were promised that we would start to make progress by our 3rd season in super league and this is exactly what we did. Finishing 4th was a fantastic achievement in such a short space of time.
2 - Who are the key players for you?
Very difficult to pick out key players as this will change with each game. Probably Dobson, as he can change a game with his kicking options. In the forwards an in-form pairing on Newton and Galea. Shaun Briscoe at the back is incredibly reliable.
3 - Young star to watch?
Liam Watts
4 - Player you would most like to get rid of?
Not going to answer that one
5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan?
He has done a fantastic job over the last 5 years.
6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year?
The next one, in this case Wigan away on Friday
7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why?
Leon Pryce, witnessed his cheating tactics far too often.
8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010?
Yes
9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue?
It's great to be back on an even footing with them, rivalry is always good. I think the scales are tipping more our way and yes, it can continue.
10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform?
I don't see any reason why we can't equal or better our achievements of last season.

Quote ="SuperLeague2010"Just wondering if I could count on your help? Basically I'm a 3rd year student studying Sports Journalism and need help with my final project. I'm producing a super league preview magazine and am hoping to use Q and As with fans from each club as part of it. Most on my course are doing generic sports such as football so I'm hoping I can use mine as something a little bit different, using my passion of Rugby League. I was just wondering if any of you could help answer the following questions: Name: 1 - How did you rate your side's 2009 performance? 2 - Who are the key players for you? 3 - Young star to watch? 4 - Player you would most like to get rid of? 5 - What's the general opinion of Justin Morgan? 6 - Which game are you most looking forward to this year? 7 - Who is your most hated opposition player and why? 8 - Have you been happy with your transfer activity for 2010? 9 - How much are you enjoying your superiority over Hull FC and can it continue? 10 - Season prediction? eg where will you finish and how do you think you will perform? Much appreciated guys. If you want to e-mail me for any queries or even if you want to answer via e-mail, don't hesitate to contact me at gfarrimond@uclan.ac.uk Thank you very much and good luck in 2010! '" 1) Excellent, it followed the chairmans comments of season upon season improvement since our promotion to Super League. 2) Key players are like last season Dobson and Cooke, who instigate the attacks and Newton, our stand out forward. 3)Liam Watts / Scott Taylor....twp potentially very good youngsters to follow in the footsteps of Welham. 4) Mills. 5)Justin Morgan, a superb coach and tactician and the key man ( outside of boardroom level) to have enabled our rapid rise through Rugby League. 6) Always look forward to the next game. Super league so close this season. 7) Don't "hate" any opposition players but its always nice to see the smug and arrogant like Yeaman get crunched. Supporters always look to big name signings but invariably the top teams have a settled squad and do not have the need to make numerous additions or additions to their squad. 9) Always nice to be top dogs in Hull and whilst it never gets boring Rovers aim must be to continue to battle it out with the top teams in Super League. 10) A season upon season improvement, which means another top four finish and success in the Challenge cup or the play offs.
