Interestingly, 2 Wakey fans have already stated earlier that we brought either 2,000 or 2,500-3,000. I tend to think you are looking for a bite, you won't get one here.

Congratulations on a hard fought win - we absolutely battered your line for a good 10-15 minute spell in the second half, but just couldn't make it pay - thanks in no small part to some outstanding defence.

Great travelling support too - I reckon about 1.5 -1.8k; nice to see BV rocking to a big crowd.

I don't understand what you mean. I said it was a certainty that after a defeat, Agar doesn't take responsibility. Oh,unless you just wanted to re-affirm your view of Rovers dominance over FC this season. In which case, you're quite correct. Smashing.

Goal line defence won that match for us. We looked ok in the 1st half when we got a share of possession, but the second half we lived off scraps. Wakey must have had a dozen sets on our line (it felt like that many). Josh Hodgson came of age a bit today and Clinton played like the highest paid forward in Brisbane's history.

Better late than never eh?

Clinton MOM today, we looked miles better when him and Mika came back on.
Magnificent goal line defence today and some wild calls from Hicks and the boys.
Everyone stood up to be counted and they all earned their winning money.
Costly win but a good win all the same.

Fair play to all the magnanimous wakefield fans. Hope you go well the rest of the year (return fixture aside).

not read all the thread but personally thought your hooker (was it lovegrove?) was outstanding and took full control of the game, admittedly on the back of a strong pack performance, and he would have been my MOTM for you guys.

great support as well, i would reckon about 2k

Rovers and Wakefield fans appear to be joined in a hatred of Wakey's new found enemy, I like it!


Credit to Agar and Jimmy Webster, they've assembled a decent team there, whether or not they can play like it remains to be seen.
Lauititi seems to have become somewhat of a cheap-shot merchant though, which is a shame as he was a great player.

Haha, I reckon we took about 4.5k fans to Wakey, according to what I saw on the radio. How many do you reckon we took?

Where can I get a radio like yours?

I'm actually Chris Park, just fatter. I counted, there were 2197 physically there, but some extra "virtual" fans. Quantity unconfirmed, but at least 1. Not sure whether to include former Rovers pivot, Ben Cockayne. He'll be counted as a Rovers fan, right? I'm drifting off course a bit here. Sorry.

Just watching the tries on sky and I reckon that's what sandercock was on about late shots on players

Chris Chester was going ballastic over Lauititi's blatant off-the-ball challenge on Dobbo after 25 mins. It turned the game to an extent, and then to rub salt into the wound the ref [dick sin binned Taylor for what was an innoculous incident - I wonder what Mr Cummings has to say about these two incidents!!!!

Nevertheless, amongst all of this adversity Rovers stood tall and put in an outstanding defensive display. We are going to need this mentality next week against Saints, but lets enjoy this rare victory at Belle Vue. Two points in the bank and the monkey off Sandy's back lol!

The list of lossless teams is similarly lacking one of the Hull clubs. Can you guess which?

The Wakey Chairman said Rovers contingent was 'a big turnout' - make of that what you want lol!

I reckon it was about 2,000 plus 2 (Fox and Mariano who both kindly dropped =#FF0000Edit-AS to our advantage).

Congrats on the win - first class defending, coupled with your pack tearing it up the middle saw you worthy winners.

But have to admit that I agreed with the Sinbinning, clearly a pro foul - but in the end didn't really cost you.

Oooh. A fantastic new competition. GUESS THE WORD.

"Their testicles" is my bet.

Well played KR, deserved it for a fantastic defensive effort, We just weren't clinical enough to beat you when we had the chance. Good support, good fans, apart from the woman who told me to 'treasure ben cockayne, he is what coke is to crack'



, I reckon there was about 1.5k there today. Better side won on the day, good luck for the rest of the season.

Mr Cummings will not say anything about the alleged off the ball incident as it is a disciplinary issue. He will say that the sin binning was completely correct as the delay of a 20 metre restart is an automatic sin binning and anyone knowing the laws would know this.

Only Taylor will know if it was a cynical foul, it looked as if he didn't hear the whistle, I clearly heard it from the other end of the ground so for me it was correct for him to get ten minutes.

didnt get there 4 the match for those who went is there anyone who really stood out and anyone who got a could do better o.t radio blunderside commentry "and cockaynes in at the corner for rovers"

Stand outs were (1) Clinton (2) Josh Hodgson (3) Conn Mika. Nobody really "could do better" (apart from Robert Hicks, but that's a whole new story), it was a brutal defensive effort that could not have suceeded if they all hadn't worked for each other.

Withers went well, looks sharp and plays with a bit of intelligence, he'll prove to be a good acquisition.
Mika looked dangerous, powerful and looking to offload or draw a man. Went for a massive hit in the first half, hilariously missed by miles and ended up giving Paea a big cuddle.
Clinton was like the Clinton of old.
Mature display from Josh Hodgson, good scoots out of dummy half and is deceptively strong.
Webster took the ball up with vigour and defended well.

Welhams defence is still an issue, dropping off tackles and missing.
Really not sure about McDonnell so far, he'll no doubt benefit from a firmer pitch going forward but his defence, particularly one on one looks suspect.
Cox still looks like he hasn't got over being battered from pillar to post by Catalans in last years play off mauling. No real issue at his age.

ty sandra and sir stan work commitments kept me away but hopefully wont miss many more

Bentham should have gone for 10 at the Leeds game then, he clearly delayed our 20m re-start and lost us the advantage.
