Same old same old, god knows what Chester and Poching have been doing with the team in pre season but, based on todays performance not much by the look of things.
The positives were few and far between, however, some praise has to be give to some of the pack who overall performed reasonably well I thought, in particular James Green and Greenwood when he came on.
I also thought Walker played some good minutes and on top of those I thought Thornley looked very promising.
On the flip side I thought the backs looked very out of sorts with Marsh, despite his late try, looking very ordinary at halfback, he needs to get involved more and take on the line because for most of the game he just shipped the ball on.
The problems we were experiencing on the field last season seemed to have been carried forward to this one with no lessons learnt, sloppy goal line defence and lack of concentration at crucial times were there for all to see today.
Although this was a pre season friendly and against a very good Huddersfield outfit who I'm sure will be in the top 4 this year, Rovers were hugely disappointing overall.
I just hope that they can manage to sort things out quickly otherwise it could be a long hard season ahead, plus Chester and Pooching could well be picking up their p45s before the end of the season as I'm pretty sure the fans will not stomach more excuses and another failure this season.
