Any other RL fans on here?
I'm setting off from Azerbaijan this afternoon to see Hull KR play in the final for the 1st time since 1986,I was 18 then, and to be honest I think I'm more excited now after what the club has been through over my years of supporting them.
Anyway the CC is always a great day out, really looking forward to mixing with all the fans who make the annual journey, should be quite emotional for the Leeds fans too with some of their big names bowing out at the end of the season.
Just hope we get to see a great game (not the walkover what most of the so called experts are tipping) and I can fly back here on Sunday night with memories of Rovers lifting the cup, and hopefully I don't have to wait another 29 years to see it again

Leeds are going to muller us. We are making silly mistakes and Leeds are punishing us.

Yep Leeds far too good , KR hammered. Shame it wasn't a closer final for the neutral.

It was embarrassing. I'll always be a proud Rovers supporter, but my god they were bad today. I don't think I have seen a more inept performance in a long time. Was Dixon was doing in the second half is anyone's guess!

The current Leeds team are one of the best ever seen in Super League.
I thought Rovers were unlucky to concede the first try but they never really got any momentum in their attacking game due to Leeds outstanding defence. Once they reached 16-0 Leeds just grew in confidence and some of their support play in attack was sublime.
I have sympathy for Rovers and the full back will need some encouragement to get his mojo back.

Well that was worth the trip banghead seriously outclassed, in the end just one point on the board would have made it for me, definitely need a couple of new props for next season.
Great weekend away though, the atmosphere in all the bars was fantastic
