| ...a few things were made clear for me.
The teams confidence is shot, last night apart from the ten minute spell in the second half when Morgans words will still have been ringing in their ears, we looked mis guided and leaderless. The half time talk clearly worked as we looked class immediately after the break, but you could see the doubt creep back into the team as soon as Salford started applying pressure again.
I mentioned leaderless and a leader is something we don't seem to have at the minute, I'd argue we're missing our biggest two in Vella and Newton and yes Dobson leads on attack but I'm talking about someone who rallies the troops after conceding a try or repeat set. We weren't talking last night.
As much as Scott Murrell plays is heart out for us and has a kicking game that can sometimes win you games, he is not a scrum half. We aren't going to replace Dobson but surly it's time to give Bell a shot?
Mason isn't match fit, that's not a problem as he's only going to get match fitness by playing, but it's worth mentioning. He along with the rest of the squad will play far better and turn it around, no doubt in my mind.
Lastly, any Rovers fan calling for Morgans head wants a slap, we're expecting as much as we are now because of where that mans got us to, if we played as badly as last night for the rest of the season he'd deserve at least that amount of time and patience from the fans to try and get it right again.

| Watch the fans drop off now. Hudge must be banging his head against the wall. I just dont see any light at the end of the tunnel. Mason can lead us give him the armband.

| many have said that we have been a one man team, take Dobbo out and Hull KR will fall apart. looks as though they are right. I have said to many people the two players we should fear getting injured at the same time are Dobbo and Newton, Dobbo is an easy one to understand, but Newton proves just how good he is when he is MISSING from the team sheet.
Morgan has a big problem, Huddersfield (Brough in particular) will kick us to death and on last nights showing we might be getting 50+ past us LIVE for all to see. Unless we do something quick, we will be going into the derby with two wins from ten, with the only optimism being that FC are just as $hite as us.

| Also take into consideration the opening fixtures that Rovers have had. Hull Castleford Crusaders Catalan Salford only really Warrington a tough task. I think most rovers fans would have expected 4 wins out of the opening 6.
Dobson is the main reason you are not functioning, you are right Murrell is not a scrum half, he is a decent squad player. Mason as I have posted before wont win you any games. You need to address the Dobson situation quickly.
Look at Castleford they are a different side with Danny Orr running them around the pitch, recruit quickly or your season is over.
Good luck.

We wish. We're 1 from 9 and as it stands you're in a play-off place.

| Disapointing for us but it is a long season. I did not go last night but should we not give Salford some credit? they have on paper a good squad & a lot of pundits have tipped them for a vast improvment this year.
