Very open first 15 minutes, eary try from Holmes for Cas, Rovers immediately reply with Newton then Hall scores on 15 mins.

10-6 HKR

12-14 HKR HT

Rovers on top for much of the half, but need to convert more chances when near the live, Chase is running the show for Cas, exciting 2nd half coming up I think.

Dobson, Clinton, Mason, Lovegrove, Webster all top players missing plus Matt Cook who at the end of last season was really coming into his own.

I'd suggest going in at half time 3 tries to 2 really shows the depth we have. Lets hope we can crack on in the second and come out with the 2pts.

18-14 Cas

24-14

Rovers have dropped the ball on almost every posession in the second half, shocking.

How long before people wake up and smell the coffee,justin is not the god everyone thinks he is,no defence,no pace and no improvement in the last 2 seasons.Everyone goes on about how bad agar is at hull yet he's no worse than morgan,you cant live on the fact he was coach when rovers got promoted,a warrington fan was right the other week when he said that rovers are were warrington were until they finally got a decent coach.Give me noble over morgan any time off the week at least we would have a defence.Another australian forward is not going to make the difference either,someone needs to make a decision becuase the walk up fans aren't going to come to watch the rubbish been served up at the moment.It hurts me to write this but we are going backwards fast at the minute.

Morgan out

Bugger!

Drop goal to finish 27-14.

27-14 Full Time

Abysmal Second Half.

Abysmal 2nd half, really need to step up next week. I hope we give the lad Bell a crack at 7

What a difference a [url=http://www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague/superleague/table/index.insdatweek makes[/url

First half sounded better, if a bit laboured. Their second try, when we were looking to go maybe 3 scores clear was one of those 12-point turnarounds. Second half seemed to be in the same vein as last week with a lot of basic errors. Could really do with a result next week or we'll be chasing it and low on confidence. And ideally back it up vs Salford. Hudds, Saints, Leeds, Wigan and the away derby could start to look an even more intimidating prospect, if not.

You need that depth as well against the likes of Holmes, Walker and Clark.

To be honest I'd sooner have had Cook in for Newton and Mason playing front row next week! Newton needs to be told he isn't the world beater he thinks he is. He can be a really good player on his day but his days are few and far between and without Dobson he is nothing.

Can big Willie kick.

Sounds like you need a kicker to help breakdown strong defences

what a load of rubbish,the sooner we get rid of morgan the better

Mason to prop? Big mistake.

We?
Are you one of the Masonista converts?

The best coaches in the world have played him there and at the moment we need props that will make yards because Vella and Clinton do not make any worthwhile meters.
