I havent really had a lot of time to blog lately as all my time seems to have been taken up with work and things around the house, anyway Tracy and the kids are sat watching casualty so I thought I would take the opportunity to post something on here. Rovers have started the season really well and if before the first game I would have had a chance of two wins from the first 3 games I would have snapped your hands off, Leeds, saints and then the dragons away in france arent exactly the start people would have picked but we have come through. Warrington are the next test for us and they are without one of their big close season signings in Matt King so that is a bit of luck, but to be honest the team that Justin has assembled I dont think that luck will play a part this season. Sean Briscoe has really started off well at full back and i cannot see why Peter Sharpe let him go, we have a strong back division now and the four first choice three quarter line is a complete new unit from last year, Jake Webster looks awesome and I think could turn out to be the signing of the season in the whole of super league.
We have virtually a new pack too and a complete change from last season when we didnt seem to have many big lads and got out muscled a lot, dont get me wrong the lads who were there did their best but as the saying goes, a good big un will always beat a good little un!
I think Micky Vella will have a great season because he has willing help around him to share out the work, where as last year he was at times expected to do most of the work on his own, and I believe this will make it easier for him to really show us what he can do.
Of course I have to mention the young lad we have got fresh out of the academy, I think he is about 15 years old, young Stanley!!!!!!! He scored his 100th try for Hull KR the other night in France and what an important try it was too. 100 tries already, not bad for a 12 year old is it?

you jest about Stanley, but the way he's going he will be listed as 15!
Seriously, good start to the season. I hope for your sake the little 'cuckoo' in the nest doesnt come back and disrupt things.
that is a worry. who would you drop to fit him in cos right now i cant pick anyone. chester is doing a great job at stand off.
The real worry is they will feel they have to make room for him, considering all the bother its been. I would hope Justinio sticks him in the A team (or whatever its called now) and lets him play for a place.
i hope justinio sells him to anybody
