Totally agree. One of the poorest aspects of our play this season has been our ordinary starts to games (also 2nd halfs), it seems to take us 10/15 minutes to get ourselves going, usually having fallen behind. Let's put the opposition under pressure from the off.

shirt out, nervous as usual, COYH

If you have an iPhone or an Android, download an app called Mobdro. You actually have to go onto the mobdro.com website to download it and then bypass the settings when you install it saying it is not an authorised app.

This is an app that streams every channel you can think of - no signup, registration needed. Its a great app

thanks mate

There does seem some nervousness around, but why? Radford has had you fired up for derby games these days & we haven't beaten any of the top 5 this year. Yours to lose.

Go to the search and just type in 'sport' and all the Sky Sports channels show up

You can get premier sports in it too. I do that and then mirror my phone to my TV

Yep same here, I think people on here are starting to learn my routine, leave work an hour early, bike 2 1/2 miles home in 5 minutes, clothes and what have you in another 5 minutes and leg it to train station. All complete in less than 20 minutes!

Any rumours of the starting line-up other than Abdull?

I just want to see Ellis' name on there. That alone will calm my nerves immensely.

I don't think it works on iPhone, but yes it is great on android

ellis back in, pryce on the bench, abdull starts. Weak bench for me

Shaul, Michaels, Fonua, Yeamo, Talanoa, Abdull, Sneyd, Taylor, Houghton, Watts, Manu, Mini, Ellis, Pryce, Thompson, Bowden, Washy

Why have Pryce on the bench? it's as if he's doesn't trust Abdull. Another forward would have been better.

i agree,waste of a bench spot. Radford did this a few weeks ago and Pryce created a try but did little else.
A tackler and worker like Hadley would have been useful tonight shoring up the right edge.
If Radford is concerned about the fitness of Abdul he could always move Washbrook to the halves which he has done regularly

Mantellato back for Rovers. Christ on a bike, is that an unprecedented quintuple boost?

Alas not, Horne never made it ( he was 1 of the 4) so it's still only quadruple!

Hang on Stan she'll spin it somehow

Great start again???

Hope Sneyd makes it back on. His kicking game has been great.
Had he been on in that final set I reckon he'd have kicked a drop to take us 4 scores in front at half time.

Sneyd will return no doubt about that I think he's just got a 'stinger' if he doesn't it'll just because he's not needed with Pryce playing and the score line been well in our favour.

Yep, stranglehold executed in the first half. Excellent.

Must be desperate times to be a Rovers fan. Is it right that by next Easter it will be 2 years since they'll have won a derby? Can't be right, can it?

funny how some cant wait to get on here to have a dig then disappear without trace when we win ,

Webster on RH "We wanted Josh back because we thought it was going to be close and his kicking could have made the difference"

Well done tonight. Deserved win. Margin of victory flattered but we were pants and you were clinical and reasonably composed throughout.

On the form of the first half masterclass alone and throughout the season, Mark Sneyd and Danny Houghton MUST be in the England Squad for the 4 Nations on merit.

Shame it doesn't work like that isn't it?
