| We didn't deserve that but at least we hung in there against a Hull KR side that was on fire for the majority of the game.
I enjoyed it in the well. The views not great with a section of the pitch blocked by the dugout but your fans were a credit. There was some good banter and you took that type of defeat exceptionally well.
To clap the Wigan team off at the end showed real class. I don't know why but the relationship between both sets of fans seems really good. Maybe it harps back to the magic weekend in Cardiff when Wigan would support KR against Hull FC and you guys returned the favour when we played Saints(we needed support back then as Saints would usually put 50+ on us).

If anyone is fluent in Moronese, and can translate this, I would be really grateful, thanks.

| Quote Mild Rover="Mild Rover"The fact we have been pushing teams close offers, if not consolation, at least some indication that we aren't miles away - we just can't get over the line, which is a worry. We're not, as form might suggest the worst team in SL - on the other hand when we won 6 from 7 and we were never that good either. We're 10th this year pretty much guaranteed (I think), and that is, overall, a fair reflection - as it generally is.
Injuries hamper you, but all teams have them. Sandercock's first season has maybe been worse than any of Morgan's from that POV, so I hope nobody is calling for his head yet. Realistically though, if things don't pick up in the first 10-15 games of next season, he won't get a new deal. Hopefully, from our POV, this has been a bottoming out.
The one strange positive for him is that expectations will be lowered to distinctly realistic levels for 2013 - he just has to be damn sure we reach them.
New north stand, Disco Dave's dash and a few promising debuts - apart from that, our sixth SL season can get stuffed for me. Bring on 2013.
edit: Doing the double over Huddersfield was nice too.
Hope Galea, Webster, Murrell and the others still got a hand despite the disappointment, but.'"
I see a fair bit of Rovers and I think that you're not that far away, but there are some serious improvements needed at the same time. You could sense (I thought) once Wigan scored the try right on half time that they would win the game, and that was the feeling around where I was in the RM Stand.
I've been impressed with a lot of the kids who've played this year, Sheriffe looks like he'll be a good player, I'm impressed with Liam Salter, Cox is a solid player and Dave Petersen is good too, so a few more of those and you won't be far away.
Really felt for Scott Murrell at the end today, it was obvious just how much Rovers means to him, him and Galea are 2 players who I've always enjoyed watching for Rovers, especially the Scott Murrell of 08/09 before Morgan tried turning him into a hooker.

| That's usually my fault.
Wigan probably just deserved to sneak it, you just cannot concede that many points and expect to win a game.
The lack of control at twenty six nil was ridiculous.
I did however enjoy the game overall, we gave it a good go, that attitude and effort was there.
Shed a little tear at the end with the departure of Super Ben Galea, The Drighlington Dynamo and Jake The Snake.

We've lacked belief and composure of late. Next year a few players will be a year older and a year wiser, but replacing Galea and Green with Paterson and Burns won't make us any more savvy, from what I've heard. Hopefully we'll get more game time from them, but we're going to be relying even more heavily on Dobson's direction by the looks of things.
Cheered me up a bit anyway. 2012 had the odd moment I sulkily forgot - putting 70 on Cas, nilling Widnes, pipping Wire, they just all feel a long time ago. Hopefully the experience (mostly of losing, but still) that the young players you mention have gained will stand us in good stead to move up the table a bit next year.
