Well said Pickering but I hope he is right did campo get the full game I was out so do not know I hope he did

Campo was replaced after 70 minutes to avoid any unnecessary risk and with us up by over 30 points and job done. Lunt came back on to join Marsh in the halves.

Basically said kelly has let down club and fans he won't play next week and hudge doesn't know if kelly will play again for club

On recruitment he felt we've paid too much for some players in the past and that will change. He also said not knowing what league we are in has hampered recruitment and they won't be 12 changes like the other season.

What bloody planet are you on? Zanussi?

You need to do the maths and look at the remaining fixtures? We're not in SL by any stretch yet and as the saying goes, "it ain't over until...........etc"

After today's result against London, I'm happier but far from relaxed or complacent. You on the other hand seem worryingly smug. I would be looking at betting irregularities at your nearest bookies or via your online account if I didn't have a couple of ferrets to sex.

I need to do the maths?

Please read the league table and digest. We already have a better PD than Hudds who were shocking yesterday and who will lose to unbeaten Leeds. We play winless Featherstone next so our PD will be 50 points better then Huddersfield going into the last game. So In the last game we can lose as long as not by 50 clear points. Clear enough?

Problem is, that isn't math, that's just your opinion. Even as a Leeds fan I'm not sure we will win at Hudds now that we've done enough to guarantee safety.

What if Salford run in enough points against London & Batley to overtake our points difference?

4th will be alright...won't it?

No, absolutely crazy on your part to paint a scenario in this way.

As an ardent Rovers fan and a glass half full person, I would love your season ending synopsis above to come to fruition and perhaps it might.

However, your assertive attempts to depict a foregone conclusion scenario with 2 games to go and with multiple permutations still to play out, are deeply disrespectful to the other teams involved and an insult to our collective intelligence and recent experiences supporting this Hull KR team imo. Perhaps it's me being needlessly and cautiously realstic and over reactive towards you.

Hope you don't operate as a life coach with that level of smug arrogance and complacency on view.

In this possible, but by no means certain scenario, Hudds would only need to beat us by 25 or 26. Every point they won by would effectively count double - improving their PD and reducing ours.

I'd actually be a bit nervous about the psychology of 'defending a lead' from minute 1, especially if it was 'only' 12 or 14 points.

First things, first - Featherstone.

The other thing nagging at the back of my mind is that Salford might know they're in the MPG ahead of round 7, and can ease through their last game while we and Hudds exhaust each other.
