Jeez. Whether they get or or not off the field is irrelevant. If they can play well on the pitch, which is debatable, is the key. I'm sure there are many great sporting partnerships which work brilliant on the pitch, but would never mix socially off it.

My point is you don't have to like someone to look happy in a photo with them.

I know all that, but all you get on here is stuff from people who know all the secrets, which included Drew and Brough hating each other, and the only time I saw them off the field was when they were in a boozer, chatting happily, choosing to sit with each other rather than the other squad members. I wasn't trying to change the world or anything.

the major problem i see with brough joing up with drew is drew can open up a giant can of whoop ass whilst playing stud

Very unfair Sundays result was a win yes and 2 points but even the most rose tinted supporter could not hide from the fact that it was a dire contest against a Salford side who did not want to know for 30 minutes the tries were very soft to say the least the marking was non existent for the Latu try having said that you can only beat what is put in front of you
We played very basic error free pen free RL for 30 minutes but apart from one korki clean break and a very well work try in the 2nd half it was dire the support play was non existent the passing speed slow and the off load game non existent
Don’t get we wrong I will take a win any day of the week but this was a very poor Salford side who should have being taken to the cleaners in the 2nd half

It seemed a bit 'cue on the rack' for me. Yes we had individuals running it hard, but there was little or no work off the ball, little momentum gained and then we tried being too lateral.

I would agree that if we play like that on Friday, we will get tonked. Point is - I don't think we will play like that and IMO we deliberately shut down in the second half to preserve energy for this week coming!

I think we will give Wire a very good game and would not rule out a win if our pack can stand up we have every chance

There was an interesting discussion after the game which I was party to. It went something along the lines of 2+ years ago that would have been exactly the type of game we would have been walking away from, scratching our heads saying 'how is it we can beat Leeds one week and lose to Salford another'. We are now a totally different outfit who not only (on Sunday) integrated a new player but tried a variety of new combinations and got a few more miles on the clock for some extremely promising youngsters.

The thing that frustrates the hell out of me is that so many people are on here going on as if Danny Brough means everything to our club. The fact is, and I have said it numerous times on here, we have consistently played better without him on the field (and I am not just talking about 10 minutes at Hull KR but numerous examples over the previous two seasons.) I may be in a minority but I long to see the back of Brough and remove a disruptive and damaging influence from our squad. I think we will be much stronger for it.

Away to Wire last year was one of the best performances of last season........

and we had a player missing
