Another shocker tonight, looked tired right from the kick off and game was all but over by HT. Rovers squad thinness showing through at the moment.

surprising considering key players got a nice 'rest' last week

I was effin impressed. Rhinos will be some game after that performance. Thought HKR were lacking a little bit of a plan b.

I agree, but that's just fancy talk for blaming injuries. "All teams get them, live with it" to quote your dimwitted red and white chums

With Hull's embarrassment of a transport "infastructure" I wouldn't have been able to make the last train after the match.

And get Cooke to spin a ball 20 metres behind the runners. That worked well twice in the closing stages

Tbh I was shocked when I found out there were even that many. Looked on tele no more than 6000, empty golf stand, empty south stand, half-full west stand, full east stand. Considering the attendance figure for the Wire cup game was LOWER with 1000+ travelling supporters, how on earth was the attendance HIGHER for this game with virtually no away fans? Baffling.

The funniest part was when the Hull KR faithful all began to cheer after they thought Gene had smashed Golden (IIRC, maybe Kaye), but for Golden to carry on running and Gene to lay down injured
