Paul Rowley having a moan about DR : Wed Jul 16, 2014 1:24 pm  

"We're not going to feel sorry for ourselves..." but "...waah waah waah" http://www.leighjournal.co.uk/sport/lei ... m/?ref=rss Shame he hasn't the grace of his teams supporters, he also went and had a go at the time keeper after the game cause he thought there was 15 more seconds to play...what was he going to do during that 15 seconds? Work harder at watching us line up our conversation?

T*****, the fact is they didn't score a point in the second half, what about praising the DONS defence.

How can it be manipulation of results! if it was D/R would also mean we would be unbeaten.

Totally sour grapes. Its a little difficult to honestly still refer to Crooks as a Dream Team centre when he hasn't held a regular starting birth. Also Miller played 9 games over 2 years for Wests. Yes he had a good game for us but no one would say he is NRL standard yet after his recent struggles

No disrespect to the guys who put in a sterling effort and played well but if they were currently commanding the kind of clout Rowley describes they would have been in a Hull shirt at the weekend. Also thought his argument about coaches having tiffs sounded juvenile. No coach is going to say: 'hmmm I don't like that guy, you know what forget this match I'm supposed to be preparing for; forget that my job security is based on results, performances and team selection; you guys take our 5 best players just to give that guy a bad day.'

Yeah ok, I totally see that happening.

And

Surely it is easier to review against established players he has heard of and obviously knows about, than some kid from Hulls reserves he probably couldn't get a video of

I have said before how well I thought Donny played and deserved to win NO DOUBT , you put our defence under so much pressure in the first half , but we held out , personally I didn't think Leigh played that bad , it was just Donny played better .

My concerns for Donny are the Play-offs as D/R players MUST have played in around 75% of League Games to be eligible to play in the play-offs , it happened to us a couple years ago , Donny could end up a few players light .Good Luck for the remainder of the season , Charlie predicts Donny will go unbeaten for the rest of the League games this season .

Thank you and I hope we do go unbeaten for the rest of the campaign - and Leigh (or Halifax) to do us a favor and beat featherstone while denying them a bonus point of course.

Makes you wonder why, if he had these concerns, he didn't voice them before, and would he have raised them now had the result been reversed

Can swap Cunningham and Cookie for Crooks and Miller any day and fully Dons team. Where's the struggle.
