Crooks and Hall have gone well for us since coming in. Both seem to have improved the defensive side of their games since leaving. I liked the big centre for TWP but other than him it's a bunch of jobbers who have a huge advantage with or without Child beningnly smiling upon them in Canada.Cant see Noble complaining about refs after that master class

Anyway back on thread (Jean) excellent result today Rovers, they still have not beaten a Super League team home or away - well done

Thank you.

A reminder to all posters that we are trying to move away from a situation in which every thread on the VT becomes about expansion.

Please see the sticky at the top of the VT index page.

I think it is the longest game I have watched on TV, there were far too many stoppages with accompanying water breaks.

And did anyone else notice the clock go back in time and then stop in the last 20 seconds, or did I imagine it?

It got to 80.00 then jumped back to 79.41.

So it was either a TV mistake or someone trying to milk an extra 20 seconds for Toronto to steal the ball and score. Probably the former but it all looks unprofessional.

It was a massive win even though we didn’t play particularly well Lunt is becoming a liability good as he is he’s not playing enough I really fancy us to turn Leeds over with some grunt back I think we’ve really missed Blair

Very happy with the result! But to be fair to Toronto there was no disgrace in defeat. However they seem to be running out of backs and that could cost them if they lose any more.

I still expect them to get 10 points, mores the pity...

I didn't actually see any water breaks called officially. Did I miss something!
