I thought today we were let down by the half backs and our hookers. I thought Morrison did more creating than either Deacon or Jeffries today.
We had the chance to kill the game with possession but Jeffries came up with a crucial error to allow Hull KR a way back. The kicking game was generally poor, with a poor kick from Deacon being the main cause of conceding the first Hull KR try.
On the plus side I thought Nero, Morrison, Sykes, Menzies, Scruton and Burgess all looked good. Nero especially looked dangerous and caused Hull KR defence to scramble several times, hopefully he will come good this year. We looked pretty fit considering the lack of gametime but our timing was out and far too often our first pass went behind or forward!
Plenty to improve on but I expected it to be a scrappy game given the stop start nature to our season so far.
I thought today Deacon was like an NFL kicker who just came to take the kicks because he wasn't doing any thing else.
RFL I think. We had 2 lower league friendlies then a friendly against KR lined up. Reasonable preseason warmup I thought.
Everyone was rusty today. Our defensive systems looked good - although not much pressure put on them. The two tries were individual errors. Not much changed there then.
Attacking wise - Hull KR were very solid, we made rookie errors ie no-one at the ptb, passing the ball onto Scrutons head. Hopefully (please!) match practice will help with this.
Referee (and his assistants) made a lot of mistakes. Some were in our favour and some against and some were totally just wrong.
If you consider allowing them to make 40- 50 meters most sets I'd agree.
when two opposite points of view are expressed with equal intensity, the truth does not necessarily lie exactly halfway between them. It is possible for one side to be simply wrong.
and theler give us the head and feed to us after you chagred it down, he ruined what i thought was a good game,
If your going to comment get your facts right. When we charged it down the Hull player then knocked on . So according to the rules this is classified as a double knock on with Bradford's being the first hence the Hull KR feed at the scrum.
No problem! Now when are you going to come and watch a game and so have chance of a balanced and considered comeback?
Was very impressed by Menzies you should of lost the game today Rovers bombed 3 good scoring chances and don't start me on the performance of the officials embarrassing and spoilt the potential for a good game.
