London won't get to play weakened sides every week though and they still have some distance to travel on points difference as well as needing wins.

On a level, this year is fascinating at the bottom and most fixtures are significant.

We are not out of danger ourselves yet. Will be very interesting to see how we perform against Hull.

We look like we're coming home with a wetter sail than some sides around us but... it really is week by week at the moment. Two poor losses and we're in massive trouble.

What makes you think we are coming home with a wet sail?

We were saying we'll be ok weve got a few home games. If we lose against Hull that's 2 out of the way and 2 losses .Then running out of reasons to thinking we'll be OK .I think the team will have a go at this one .Hope so

The previous three performances before KR were better, and we’ve got Lui and Martin added in. Even Lunt might help give us better structure going forward. I think we have the players to get us away from bottom spot now; I see some of our rivals struggling with form and injury.

Team and fans have to perform starting Sunday. Simple as that. Crucial times at moment.

Agree fans need to get behind the players from the off & be the 18th, 19th & 20th man. The players in return need to give it their all & feed of the fans.

The coach needs to be brave also & be prepared to throw a few curveballs mid game if things need to change.

I think I said last week Hull KR fans were getting giddy for no reason, people are really over stating the ‘Tony Smith Factor’ they have won 2 ‘cup finals’ against us and FC but still find themselves 2nd to bottom, now don’t get me wrong we are far from being out of the poop, but if we can get a good win on Sunday I think we’re on our way to being safe, but that’s a massive IF!

FWIW I thought KR were dire tonight, if Huddersfield had have been a bit better in attack they would have walked that game.

Mellor looks a decent prospect for us runs good lines and has a bit of pace

Re: Relegation : Sat Jul 20, 2019 5:11 am  

Mellor just seems a bit lightweight but he has ability and him with Martin would give us much improved threat on the edges and link the centres better IMO.

Mellor Martin and Ward that's 3 pacey second rowers who all run
Good lines.Throw Merrin in the mix and the back row looks very good.

OK I can't see Leeds going down but I don't see a lot of wins either - if Cas had a decent half back Leeds would have lost there also.

The quality of the forwards and half backs - not convinced about Lui - is still a concern.

They should beat Hull - who have a big game next week
