Can't keep using injuries as an excuse Craig, you had a decent side on paper on Friday, those out wouldn't make a that big a difference.

At the moment Wakey, Hull, Cas and Catalans, all have more injuries than you and are picking up results. I think it's time to admit that you aren't very good, recruitment hasn't been good enough and a lot of the blame is Sheena.

Just watched the highlights from Friday, Hall is very good with ball on hand, but I don't think I've seen a worse one on one defender than him in SL, a couple of his attempts are truly pathetic.

It has to be Sheena time to go doesn't it?

Your right Dave injuries have crippled us but Friday was the night we couldn’t blame we had enough to beat Huddersfield but only played for 40mins again and with our defence we can’t get away with it our 2 games against London now will probably determine our season and I know Sheens isn’t worried but I am as I think we had a better team the year we went down

There does seem to be a few trickling back now though so hopefully that's the worse passed.Fc s 13 match streak was put down to injuries yesterday's game was won despite injuries.Dont believe the HDM fake news.

The thing is Craig Cas have worse injuries than us but are competitive in every game and are around the top four with ironically a few players we deemed weren’t good enough to play for us we should have gone for Powell when he was at Fev there’s no excuses now we fielded a decent side on Friday and should have had the game wrapped up by half time

It's hard to quantify worse? But yes that 2nd half at Hudds was abject.
Cas and Powell definetly get every drop out of their players and I like their pack and how they have played. Cook Clark Watts Webster Eden Ellis all let go by us play like new lads over there. We dont look bad on paper and pre season I was fairly confident of not being near bottom but it hasn't turned out that way? I sympathise with the cards Sheens has been dealt but I also wonder what Wane or Powell would have done in his place and suspect we would be higher than present. A big loss on Sunday will really put us in a pickle

Come on Craig, at least the players right, Wallis hasn't retired.
Who was out for the Hudds game, 2 key players, we had Carlos, Bowden, Manui, Ellis, Faramio, Houghton and probably Savalio, that's 7 of our 17.

We went to Catalans recently and won with 5 props missing.

Wakey had both their halfbacks and their two main strike players misding plus a few forwards and still won at Hudds.

Catalans, had no halfbacks yesterday and lost Bird early and still easily beat Wigan.

Injuries are part of the game now but apart from the too 2 everyone has suffered this season.

You are at best the 10th best team in the league, most of your fans are accepting this.

We are constanlty told how good a coach Sheens is and how great your recruit was and how poor Hull are, you were going to finish above us. But it is turning out like most seasons the last 30 years.

Re: Huddersfield : Sun May 19, 2019 12:06 pm  

Against huddersfield the 1st half I would class as a profesional job done,all what was required,the 2nd half was championship one at best,error strewn,missed tackles,lack of discipline.You must have given them an inspiring half time team talk tim.

Re: Huddersfield : Sun May 19, 2019 12:23 pm  

You have to also question the amount of investment in the club. Rob Crossland has done one and it’s well known that rovers make a loss every year. Without Crossland making up the shortfall, have the club had to cut back on the playing squad? I know all clubs claim to be at full cap but, do you really believe that rovers squad is costing the same as Warrington’s, St’s, or even Hull FC’s? Can Hudgell afford to run a super League Standard club on his own or would he be better off in the Championship?

Re: Huddersfield : Sun May 19, 2019 12:28 pm  

i agree that a fresh approach is maybe what is needed , bit to early to write us off but can see why some are worried, giving teams a leg up with feeble defending would help our cause ,realisticly we are 3 wins down on what you could expect ,need to make them up otherwise its curtains, exciting 2nd half of the season if you like that sort of thing

Well for what its worth he's also regarded as a troll by members of our board. However the suggestion you make is disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself. There are some very good posters on this forum, with whom we can have intelligent conversations, unfortunately you are not one of them.
