| Quote ="des lawson"What an effort,wire flattered by the scoreline.Two major observations 2day imo atkins is not a full back and dagger has to be given a chance at full backin the home game v london,also craig hall is a far better goal kicker than drinkwater.proud of our effort today and wire away will be a tough game for all.
As an after thought the halliwell jones is the best r/l stadium imo.'"
I would have thought Hall was your best option at full back.
Shaw could then come back on the wing

That is a reasonable option,well worth a thought,the next game home to london is the game where tim can try something different,I like atkin but not as a full back.

| Just hope Joel and Vai Vai injuries aren't that bad?
Pretty much where I thought we would be after 2 games. Next 2 games need winning and go from there.Lunt and Quinlan in that team and who knows how far it can go?

Hall should never play full back again. To be left on the wing where he is doing just fine.
Atkin set up 4 tries today. 2 for each side.
Here's hoping Tomkins is ok. Him and Vaivai will be big misses

| Here’s an idea let’s play a full back at full back so it has to be Dagger I understand Sheens wanting Atkin in the team but it has to be as 2nd hooker if not half back

| Funny how we all see incidents differently. I thought Austin connected to the head with his hip/thigh but he comes in viciously with a lot of unnecessary force as if trying to do damage.

| Quote ="craig hkr"Lots of positives but ultimately frustrating. Austin straight red no doubt. Ref bottled it. Tompkins took out of the game. Mose stepped up.Garbutt was good again. The pack in general played well. Atkin had a mare,Dagger deserves his shot. Some basic calls missed by ref at key moments but also shot ourselves in foot a few times. Didn't really expect to win today but that yellow that should have been red was the key factor.'"
Not blaming the ref are we

| More or less as expected. Very competitive Rovers side, incompetent reffing. We would have won if Austin had correctly been red carded. No concerns on the upcoming 2 games so we should be top 4 after 4 rounds and will go from there.
It's also clear that Atkin's time at FB should be over so with the easier games now expect to see Dagger there.

Not unlike Thursday's game the ref was very poor. It takes a special skill for both sets of fans to think he was favouring the other side.Child esque

Exactly right and please let hall take over the goal kicking,far better kicker than drinkwater.

So, he's innocent then? Or maybe your view from 50m away in the East stand is more reliable? No, it'll all come down to what the touch judge saw and subsequently relayed to the referee.

Rovers pack were a good match with ours - thought Garbutt made a number of very good carries. McGuire and Drinkwater's kicking game made us start a lot of sets near our own line.
It wasn't a high quality game given the windy conditions (which may have given rise to Austin's pass looking forward when initially it's going backwards), and there were some soft tries conceded by both teams. Cannot comment on Austins tackle (it's not a flop as Hughes doesn't complete a tackle), as I couldn't see any contact with the head from where I was in the south stand. Also the footage on Sky doesn't show any contact with the head either, but I'm not suggesting he's innocent, or not, as I just cannot tell. Happy to get 2 points with an off key performance. Thought the ref slowed the game down by not being ready for some reason or another, when the attacking team wants to get on with it after a break in play.
Only two games in and still plenty to play for.

Or if there are other camera angles? But yes that Sky footage proves little either way.Will see come Tuesday?

I was at the match and looked every bit like Hall on the screen down the other end at the time. Will admit to being wrong

| Weve heard all about how our squad is stronger this season so i guess we'll find out now.
Dagger needs a go at fullback but i think TS will stick with Atkin though.
I didnt go yesterday but listening on the radio it sounded like our pack matched Warringtons which is a plus.

The pack was great, making metres down the field ain't gonna be an issue this year as it has in our whole SL era.

I think that's a bit unfair. The only thing Sandercock got right was to give us some grunt up front.

| There's a photo on the Warrington site which appears to rule out any foul play by Austin when tackling Tomkins.
