Haven’t a clue how tonight is going to go. Really hoping we manage to keep it respectable though. If we could get a surprise win even better!

Keep them under 40 I’ll be happy. Fans got a little excited last week with the win. We are playing a total kettle of fish tonight. Best team in the league, were as we are still no where near the top 6 teams. 100% compete, play 80 mins, give it everything, no one will complain. Throw the towel in when we are playing catch up, expect the fans to be very very unhappy.

Hull KR

This is looking ominous. 60 points on the cards tonight for Rovers

They’re way too quick for us. Best we can hope for is to try and keep the scoreline respectable.

The space they had for that last try was way too much, you’d have thought we were a player down with the gap.

stuey

Getting nowt from ref. Not one penalty or 6 again.

Hepworth

I think KR are playing a different game.

stuey

Completely outplayed.

It will be a result for us if we can score a point and/or keep them down to less than 50.

Cini getting slaughtered in some places,the guy ain’t perfect by any stretch but every KR try he’s the one busting his nuts to get there while Milnes and Horne were like a swinging gate. Wave after wave of KR attacks you could have King Canute or Dylan Edwards at full back and we still wouldn’t stop them.

They are in a different class to us. Best side in the League.

How did we manage to get within 1 point of them in our first match.

what a dreadful team we are, what does rowan milnes do apart from kicking? we are slowly emptying the ground, i also think McGuire isn’t the right man for the job, but where do you start with such a task?

Matt

Last night exposed every player on the field. Individually a few of them have the capability but overall we need to clear the squad and rebuild.

If Jepson is serious about Cas and genuinely wants to see the club succeed, then now’s the time to do it. Take the financial hit, clear out the under performers, and invest in real quality.

Just look at the difference between us and KR. It wasn’t that long ago we were both playing in the championship. We had our chance in 2017 to really build on something and we let it collapse - KR have done the opposite and now they’re winning trophies.

They are as good as us in 2017. Most players fit and just purring.

I sat in the main stand and they were offside every set but they don’t get penalised and keep going at it, even when they got penalised once they were straight back doing it. It’s worth the gamble. The reffing is so weak they wouldn’t keep penalising.

Talking of reffing, he was giving out 6 agains but refusing us for the same offences.

But, my main bug is that they were playing with 2 players extra. They found a spare man on either wing very often. I struggle to believe we are just that bad. (the first bit was tongue in cheek)

Playing players out of pairing might work once but Cini and Louis senior were caught out tonite. Cini wasn’t the spare man in attack or reading the defence. Senior just didn’t work.

Wood had his best game in attack. Amone outstanding again. Asi and milnes tackled really well but they shouldn’t have to and they were shocking in attack again.

We tried hard but too many mistakes. Luckily we only have to play them once more.

Hepworth

Hull KR are learning from Saints and Wigan,they’re not playing the game on the edge of legality but slightly over it but the Refs perceptions always seem coloured by the team who is in the ascendancy and 50/50 calls tend to go there way. KR’s line speed was too much for us and it appears too much for the referees as well. Watching some of it back in slow motion,they were offside,not clearly enough to be caught in the ref’s peripheral vision but still offside. Whereas when we were pinged we were almost in a different postcode. Six agains totally agree but KR were so dominant they always got the benefit.

Mostly agree with most of this but HKR were blatantly off side nearly all the game but especially when defending their line (which wasn’t very often) and they are very well trained at slowing down the ruck when under pressure just as Sts and Wigan do / did.
Moore has always been biased towards the form teams so it was not surprising that he gave a masterclass last night.
Lets be fair, HKR were vastly superior to Cas in all respects and they didn’t need Moore to help them at every opportunity.

having watched wakfield beat wigan last night i dont think we are even fit enough, never mind good enough?
