Maybe not the scoreline but I had little doubt we'd lose. We have the smallest pack in Super League.

Savelio and Satae can sod off. I've been a supporter of Savelio but his lazy defending again today was terrible. Satae has done nothing since his run against Cas.

Lets just hope the overseas players coming in give us some aggression and somehow we pick up an organising half back who can kick goals.

Glad someone else has called that show pony Savelio out!

Yep going forward he’s aggressive and plays with intent, defensively he just can’t be arsed.

Smith was supposed to be the man that could turn average players around and didn't need to wait for his own team to get results, now we've gone into the let him build his own team phase we had with Gentle, Radford and Hodgson.... we've got a lower points total and league position than we achieved with Hodgson last season , is smith still the right man to turn it round or has this been a challenge too far for him?

And to be fair to Hodgson he had to contend with a horrendous injury list. He had to bring in loan players and give debuts to lads who weren't physically ready for SL.

Can't you that excuse this season.

The problem is some of them did but they are simply aren't good enough.

Unless it was to do with the cap we should have replaced Evans and Griffin.

Another damp squib end to the home season.
Only bright spots were Tag scoring the try and kicking the goal as his last act and that I don't have to watch us again until next year!

Was embarrassing that reaction to Taylor’s try. Look at the scoreboard

He turned them from relegation fodder to a play off team in a few seasons.

This playing group have been rewarded for repeat failure season after season. Anyone who thinks Smith is at fault this season is deluded.

He's stabilised Huddersfield, won comps at Leeds and Wire, he then stabilised Rovers and made them a genuine play off hopeful (something we are miles off). No reason why he can't and won't do the same here.

Everyone needs to have a sense of realism when looking at next season too. No way we go from a bottom 3 team to a top 4 team
