Not sure what to say; not a great result today against Huddersfield. Seemingly way to many points getting out past the robins.

A 20 point defeat considering the players we had missing? Could have been much worse.

You hope it not to be any worse.
To be fair, it's clear points can be scored, just very poor defense at the same time.
Should still be able to compete regardless of players that are out. Huddersfield never the less are a good side and are going from strength to strength.

Not many teams wil put 30 points by a full strength in form giants team any team is going to struggle with the injuries we have against a top side, take out brough and two props they wud struggle against say wigan,think we all need to just go with it wait for sandrercock to get full strength team out and see wat he can do our atttackin prowess has improved our defense surely is caused more by ill discipline leading to pressure penalty count today was ridiculous halibet is a proper homer lets hope we get him for saturday he owes us a few back from some very bizare decisions.Rally round the robins

The Giants are not in form at the moment. Lazy defence and inclined to over play.Nor were we at full strength. We were significantly underpowered in the pack and lower on strike on the right. Would expect Fielden, Chan and Ta'ai to be in our full strength team.

I hope Mika is not so badly hurt and you get a win next Saturday.

Not a great result, but we're not a great team and our squad doesn't have much depth.
Discipline and defence remain the areas most in need of improvement by the sounds of it.

At least your scoring points which is always good, getting players back in the right positions will stand good for your lot and huddersfield can strike from anywhere with just about every player, there a team to push i think they will replace saints in the top 4.

lets be honest here apart from burns who else are you really missing,horne and tui most of you think there crap ,gleeson hasnt played for you and most likely wont,ohara properly wont play, griffen bench player same as withers, imo thought your pack today looked good on paper

Our 4, 6, 8, 10, 14 and 15 are out fwiw. But it is about who does play and we have a bit of a thin squad in terms of experience. I'm not complaining about it, just acknowledging a limitation.
I don't think many of us think ET is crap, and Horne had been getting some recognition now he is playing in a more natural position. The length of Gleeson's and O'Hara's lay-offs doesn't diminish their impact.
Hudds are a strong team, up near the top of the table, is the more telling difference. They'd have been favourites even if we'd had no injuries.

It was the refs fault anyway so don't worry. You'll beat a depleted saints side next week and all will be well again

It's all true. Only Hull have players missing, everyone else is just making it up.

Actually, pretty much everyone has plenty of players missing so it's really no excuse

This is true, except Hudds who only have Chan (according to one of their fans who posted this on here earlier) missing.

My only disapointment (apart from not realising it was 24 sheets on the gate) was our whining coach blaming injuries &/or the ref for the defeat. Anyone can see why we are 9th, you don't even need to watch a game, just look at the pts against column.

So, just to verify, injuries do have an impact upon performance now do they?

Didnt think you did too bad, we went 20-0 up and stupidly seemed to lay off you and credit to your guys, you exploited our defence and got your offloads working which caused us no end of problems.we then tried too hard to put more points on you and at times it was like basketball and it was only when we went up a gear in the last quarter we made the game safe, credit your fellas for never giving up though....just one thing , where have all your fans gone ?? i dont mean that in a bad way but from 2,500 to 200 in 3 years at our place ?

Depends who you are asking? It's a squad game, and its a physical sport, nobody gets by without injuries, its just some bleat about it more than others.

200, seriously?

Economy is driving away support down, but 200, don't talk wet.

Your team were excellent, but less than 5k home support on a Sunday afternoon to watch a nailed on top 4 side, what's all that about?

our home support is appalling i will be the 1st to agree with that, look on our boards many others agree too and there is plenty of debate how to rectify it. the figure is a rough figure what i have been given by someone within the club i actually thought it was nearer 300/350 myself but surprised how few when you lot used ot bring loads - is it just the Economic climate or has the novelty in East Hull wore off a bit now your an established top flight club ?

Our season pass holders are down to same on the west side, I think if season passes or tickets were reduced it may increase more sales

That fan was wrong. Fielden, Chan and Ta'ai all absent. They give us far more power down the middle and greater strike on the right edge.

they were absent through lack of selection though not because they werent available, so not really fair to use them in the argument

Well, our home average is only 4% down on last year so the appetite is still there, folk are just choosing their away games now to save pennies.

They always did.

The danger comes from overstating their impact to avoid unpleasant realities or maintain a pretence that you are better than you are. Or indeed better than somebody else is because it is crucial to your self image.

Exactly, they always did. However, the majority of Rovers supporters have spent the last few seasons, ramming it down the throats of others that injuries dont matter and it's a squad game, perhaps to avoid unpleasant realities or maintain a pretence that Hull KR are better than they actually are

This is what I would have put if I'd had a better education.
