In a strange way that we didn't make it to Wembley (and I never thought I would ever express that sentiment)!

Re: Relieved : Sat Aug 29, 2015 5:40 pm  

Why? If we'd have got there, no way would Leeds beat us 50-0. We would have given them a game and made it a better spectacle than what it was. Hull KR stunk that place out from minute 1 to minute 80, just like their neighbours did back in 2013.

Seeing a performance like that only annoys me even more that we didn't make it there.

Christ. You lot haven't half become a right set of miserable bleeders the last 4 years.

Bit of a one horse race just like this year's superleague...can Leeds make it three in a row ?

At the moment we are a busted flush, we couldn't score against Wigan at home, I have no reason to think we would have been much better today and I'm generally an optimist...of course there's always next year...

Apologies! On reflection I may have been on this site too often lately and absorbed some negativity by osmosis, think I'll take a break from posting till I can be sure normal service is resumed.

But, you didn't get there so, tough shlt

Even the most dyed in the wool HKR supporter must have been embarrassed by such a no-show. Yes, you got there but were totally humiliated.

Having been there, and won, three times in recent years I certainly have a sense of relief that it wasn't us having our pants pulled down and given a good spanking by Leeds. But back in 2009 when we hadn't even been there for 19 years I'd have gladly taken the risk. Rovers were like rabbits frozen in the headlights whereas Leeds seem to be on a mission to give Sinfield, Peacock and Leulei (sp) the best send off possible. I wouldn't put it past Leeds to go unbeaten for the remainder of the season, and I doubt Rovers will be the last team to feel embarrassed against them.
