McNamara furious after the game at his side not getting a penalty all game...he has a point, but at the same time Catalans weren't brilliant.

Biggest difference for me was that rovers played as a team, whereas Catalan didn't seem to. Catalans forwards looked knackered and they badly need a decent hooker. 

Catalans lackmleadership on the pitch. Fages is rubb8sh, always has been and Kearey clearly doesn't want to be there

Catalans screaming out for a hooker, Fages could be the answer right under their noses

Love them or hate them you have to give them credit for their play.They are a well oiled machine
They are always mobile
fast line speed
fast play the ball to a player who is on the move not stood still
great defence and attack with high fitness levels
What is evident is it highlights what we are missing in the centre and second row.
I know we have a second row coming in next season but we really need at least one Hiku type centre,move Pryce to six and find a full back with speed as we saw today how good Broadbent looked playing in a quality team

Agree with you totally particularly re Hargreaves. Ask any player who has ever played in teams with him.


Have attended 2 previous CC finals involving Rovers- 1964 v Widnes and 1980 v Hull. Won't be there this time but really hope they win( my dear old mothers team!)
