Thur 7th Mar: SL: Hull KR v Warrington Wolves KO 8pm (Sky)

[StandOffHalf]

Both teams look incisive when they get the ball to their pivots.

Liking the look of this Wire left edge attack.

[Agbrigg]

Lovely try from the scrum. To think some numpties were wanting to scrap scrums.

[StandOffHalf]

I think it's safe to say that the young lad Hayes isn't a goal-kicker at this stage.

[DavidM]

Nice tries in this one . Best game on telly ive seen so far

Bloke with one leg would do better than these tonight

[StandOffHalf]

Shocking call on poor Batchelor there.

He played the ball perfectly legally with the foot. It just stuck in the mud.

Poor from the fella with the whistle.

[StandOffHalf]

Dufty probably Homme du Match.

[Just Browny]

Wooo

[Padge]

That was enjoyable.

[FearTheVee]

Rovers the better team but left too many points out there.

[DavidM]

Very good

 

[dkw]

Outstanding entertainment, brilliant game.

And as expected the players and ref have adjusted to the new tackling rules, barely anything high at all. Anyone claiming the games dead made to look foolish once more.

[StandOffHalf]

Wasn't too keen on Dufty spewing after knocking on and bullying the ref to change his call. Fortunately the ref changed back to the correct call.

I wouldn't have minded a yellow card to Dufty there and a penalty to KR to take it to GP. Those sort of verbals aren't on towards the ref.

Although, going by the previous kicks, it probably would have sailed wide...

An entertaining 80 minutes.

Entertaining game, some very poor defence from both teams but I think that made it a better watch.

[Worzel]

Good game. No shame in that. Too many unforced errors in the first half, much like last week, made it an uphill battle in the 2nd half. 

I’ve seen enough to have faith in this season. We’ve a couple of easy games coming up at the end of the month against the two quasi-Championship sides Hull FC and London so that’ll get us some momentum

[wasginger]

Well done both teams for an entertaining game. Well done referee for allowing the game to flow.

[Hopie]

Not sure what happened at the end there, a lot of time wasted while the decision was made, and I think Dufty might have accidentally bumped into the ref whilst he was arguing with him?
All a bit weird.

Expletive deleted. I called it right!

Hang on, I thought Dufty was an Aussie, he sounded like he were from Batleh....

Spewing and pressurising the man in the middle.

I thought he easily could have been penalised there for his demeanour/reaction.

[Leeds Wire]

Very proud of the effort there tonight. 
 

What a poor pitch again, hard to play the ball.

Now the Wire! 
 

 

[moorside roughyed]

Nice one Wire. Geez,that was close,phew.

Did the Rovers players form the scrum to stop the clock at the end? (Does that interpretation of when to stop the clock even apply any more!) Couldn't see what they/their fans were whining about otherwise.

Yes Rovers did. The clock should have stopped, and we’d have had 2 or 3 plays instead of a Hail Mary. But c’est la vie. 

[Padge]

What is Wilkin doing underneath that coat.
