Great result for us imo. If the Chase situation was going to galvanise the squad hopefully this knocks some confidence and enthusiasm out of them. The whole Chase thing has a smell of the Kelly situation with us last year. Poor behaviour could cost the club.

Catalans 20 London 18 .London turned down an easy 2 pointer as well early in 2nd half.On paper London had little chance but I reckon they will feel hard done by tonight?Mylers try was very dubious . Londons defence and team spirit was brilliant,Catalans looked like a team who thought they were too good to be in these 8's. Only a plus 2 points difference and I reckon that could be important this time around with it looking likely to be tight

Was it the london scrum half who dropped the ball over the line with about 10 minutes left? Looks like catalans may really struggle here and must be a good chance for 2 points at home for your lot

Catalans have a good performance in them. Lots of quality but seem not as motivated this year for some reason? They got away with one yesterday . In a Kevin Keegan style I'd love it if they went down would be lovely to see the egg on rfl boards chops

Re: Lead Balloon... : Sun Aug 06, 2017 9:12 am  

Well just yourselves and Fax to finish off the openers , so far a good ' half ' from Widnes , a solid if not spectacular start for us Leythers , London scaring a lacklustre Dragons

Just yourselves now to find one form before visiting the LSV next week

Great Innit

Re: Lead Balloon... : Sun Aug 06, 2017 12:02 pm  

Hoping for a good performance today and a bit of a shot across bows of the other teams but got that feeling we may make hard work of it?

You are correct. It was aimed at fellow Rovers fans who have been getting a little hysterical about our performances.
Mr Sheens inherited a car crash of a squad. If he gets us promoted its another achievement on a spectacular cv.
