Was in the well......best team won.

If you was in the Well you may be called up as a witness to the constant battering that Ukama Taia gave Michael Dobson. How many times did he run over the top of him. The guys a beast.

It was cruel to watch at times. Shame we couldn't capitalise on his breaks.....i cant remember the last time ive seen one of our forwards cause so much.damage in one match

Or a flat track bully

He did very well, was your MOTM for sure but he went up against Dobson while our beast Paea was dominating your big guys in the middle and Adam Walker even took Crabtree to school.

Was he the No. 17? Because he was a real menace.



Overall though I thought that Rovers were miles the better team tonight.

seeing as half our team is made up of ex Huddersfield players maybe they had a point to prove

disappointing lastnight.



we went 10-0 down and made a great response to go 22-10 up with leroy going 90metres with an interception, that should of been the game but we hit the self destruct button with some silly mistakes.



2nd half hull kr got a roll on, 3 converted tries in 6 minutes!!! ridiculous. on one occasion we got the ball back on the 5th tackle only for robinson not to play the ball and bentham gave the ball to hull kr instead for messing about





seemed to drop off when ferguson came on for taai too, similar story to last week when taai moved to the other side to replace ferres and ferguson went next too robinson, puletua ran riot and hull kr ran riot down that side, i think ferguson has a lot of work to do on his defence.



ukuma taai was awesome once again lastnight, hes going to become a real favourite at the giants, busting tackles and break through 3/4 men on occasions! but where were the back up to pass too??? also faiumu broke but with no one to pass too??? think we were tired lastnight.



Grix was shocking , he had one of those games we know he can and eden totally outshone him.



having said all this we only lost by 7 points and listening to radio humberside it was like they had won the cup and the best hull kr have played for in a long time, the giants have come along way.



lets hope they have a nice break and respond against leeds!

Anyone notice the similarities with last year’s game at HKR? Play with 3 props, outplayed 1st half but still in it at half time thanks to a couple of breath-taking long-range tries only to be blasted out of it in the 2nd half? Why didn’t we threaten the power and mobility of HKR’s pack with 4 props rather than 3 and a makeshift one in Fuey? Patrick injured?



We’ve had a tough run of matches in the last few weeks and I thought we lacked energy and were outplayed even though we had chances late on to get something from the game which would have been hard on HKR. With our forwards on the back foot life was going to be difficult for our pivots where DB was quiet though made 2 tries with his kicks, Robbo excellent 1st half but awful 2nd and Grixy had another game best forgotten. Ukuma had a monster of a game and I hope some of his aggression rubs off on Michael Lawrence and Fergy. Oh how we missed Fielden and Chan to take it to them.



One area where there is room for improvement is in the opposition 20 where our handling was nothing like as fluent as HKR’s who always looked dangerous in that part of the field. They could, and did, open us up with fluent passing whereas we, one instance apart, were laboured and broken with ours having to rely on DB’s kicking to create tries.



But we’re in a position I would have been happy with at the start of the season so we must be doing something right!

good post... agree also about last season, bit of deja vu

Yep thats him....and i wouldn't say miles the better team although they were the best team - the 7 point gap was about right in my view.
