The big difference between KR and us is that they appear have a good, solid and balanced squad whilst our, not counting Leon, is basically made up from, fairly or very, inexperienced youngsters.

KR will undoubtedly improve rapidly over the first few games imo, but youngsters take a while to mature, and what's more it's totally unfair on the kids to overplay them. As things are we are going to struggle. A couple of more experienced forwards and it gives us some hope - let's hope we can get someone in as soon as.

The big difference between us and Hull KR was that when the Hull KR forward stood under the posts it went dark as they blocked the sun.

ATEOTD a scratch team of mostly youngsters and loan signings, many of whom don't even know each other's names, and no coach, from a 2 week-old club in early disarray trying to put a side together, away at a SL club scoring 24 and a creditably narrow margin, I would have taken that every time.

Sack the coach. I heard Geoff Toovey is here on holiday for the Northern Beaches. Someone should try and get him in.

One thing to remember is that as well as only coming together as a team they've had almost no preseason. A 35 year old will miss the pre season more than a more youthful teammate IMO so Leon could well be missing that sharpness more than others.

Not directed at you Bullseye but I've always detected an eagerness to get on Leon's back at the earliest opportunity by some Bulls fans (mainly whilst at Odsal) and I wouldnt want to see that again when the team is trying to build
