Not a bad start

I went to Leeds on saturday night to see Hull KR take on the reigning champions Leeds Rhinos in the season opener, I kept telling everyone I was hopeful of a win and kept getting told we would be hammered, However I was proved to be correct in my optimism even though we did lose, We were winning with about 7 minutes to go and it was only some very dubious decisions from our favourite referee Mr Silverwood that finished us off.
When we came out of the ground an old man from Leeds said that if we dont finish in the top 4 then there will be four bloody good teams in Super league, which was good coming from an opposing fan.
I dont hold out much hope for this coming week as I believe St Helens are a class apart from the rest of the league but if we can produce the form from the Leeds game then who knows.
I think we have signed a legend in the making in Jake Webster, He is built like Lesley Vainakola and is as fast.

I just replied to your comment on my blog that Jake Webster looks a good signing. He may not always look as explosive as he'll be well watched from now on. What he will do is make room for other players though. I think you can do really well if you keep injuries at bay.
We've always been proud of our young uns at Hull. I think a few may get the chance to have a run our at Warrington the way things are going!
