the silly sod put an outrageous high shot on Michael Channing in the warm up last week



standard contact drill..... KADOOOSH!

I'm really excited for tonight's game though



how'd he get the nickname hammersmith express????

Ask the man who transformed him into the player he is today Sandra the terrorist

I thought he broke his hand in training, or is that a spurious lie to put these hungry tigers off the scent.....

Who needs a hand? Not like he'd need it to tackle or anything.

I personally think he's not up to much, but I only ever see KR when they are down Cas or on telly (so not a great deal) ........from what I gather he seems to split opinion amongst you guys?

Well, if splitting opinion translates as everybody apart from me thinks he's rubbish then you'd be correct.

You're quite excited about tonights game aren't you DAVE@CAS1990!?!

Could be a good game, be nice to have another good series of games against Cas, we had a few crackers in NL1 in the middle of the last decade.

oh really???? then you should be cast out





I am excited! Finally a Cas v Hull KR game has a real purpose for both teams, and for the right reasons!!!

I'd like to see us finally start using some half decent last tackle options tonight. Can see a fairly high scoring affair though that could go either way.
Not confident but I'll say 30-24 to Rovers.

I've got saints, Wigan, you and Hudds to win in an accumulator, feel free to make me some money tonight!!

what's that pay, 4/1 roughly?

I've got
Clark to score any time
Ferress " " " "
Watkins " " " "

23/1

boom

rovers to win an entertaining and open game. Plenty of tries

36-28 either way . Two shocking defence should make for a tryfest

I don't think you've got anything to shout about defence wise do you

Langley's missing, Lovegrove starts

Not so far that's why our 2 games have also been tryfests , do keep up

Another home dicking.
Particularly dog-turd tonight.

Very poor with the ball in hand. You had more than enough field position and posession to win the game tonight

Rovers never looked like scoring despite all the possession/field position.

Cas did and took their chances well for a deserved win.

@ clockwork mouse--- whoops

Very happy with both teams support today, enjoyed good conversation with all HKR fans very knowledgable and very nice people.... Your new stand is immense !!!! Absolutely bowled over by it !!! Brilliant !!!! Every faculty any rugby fan could want is under that roof !!! Game wise I thought (without being patronising) we were too strong, we didn't miss tackles kept the ball well and with our togetherness made it very hard for your (very talented) squad to get into the game.

As always great set of knowledgable supporters and looking forward to visiting my new favourite stand in RL again

First win in 20 years I knew it was due. Daryl Powell's!!!

Firstly, congratulations to Cas, who were excellent. Defended manfully and stuck rigidly to their game plan.

I've always liked Sneyd since I first saw him at Salford three, maybe four seasons ago. Kicked immaculately and did what out halves completely failed to do, bossed the game.

I don't think we were as awful as everyone else thinks we were but we were unforgivably out enthused at home.

Defence.

Jesus. We need a specialist defence coach. The structures and patterns are all wrong. We're neither sliding, effecting an umbrella or moving up as one and the less said about ur ability to scramble the better. Line speed is pathetic which points to a worrying lack of fitness.

Green (awful knock on aside) and Cox both went well, it's the senior players that are just not turning up.

A truly clueless performance from our halves who created nothing. Last tackle plays that have no thought, direction or invention.

Unlike others, I'm going to cut Keating some early game slack, but Burns? Strutting about like you're Cock O' The North, whining like a massive fanny and constant niggling will get you nowhere at this level apart from make you look, as he currently does, like a huge festering bag of putrid pus ready to explode off the backside of the world's sweatiest, most diseased Bangkok hooker.

The Hammersmith Express was clearly the man of the match, I can only guess that the sponsors wife wanted to fellate Burns after the game.

Absolute Classic Sandra you have put a smile on my face today with your description if a Bangkok hooker! At the end of the day defence wins matches , the same players are making the same mistakes as last year running out of the line and missing tackles. I was expecting a win last night but not expecting anything else from the first five fixtures. Attack wise it seemed all too rushed with no composure and too many mistakes.Back to the drawing board CS get the defensive structure sorted and stop this running out of the line.

The "Welcome" signs for Cas fans were pure class. Just a detail but excellent, well done.
