Right now, I see Rovers as Apollo Creed and Hull as Rocky Balboa

It was pretty much as I expected. But a big positive for me is that they’ve been conceding less that 8 points a game and we put 18 on them.

I thought we did ok and it's where we are at, we aren't nowhere near ready yet but we are showing plenty of grit but still need to cut the errors out, think if we'd have scored at 0.0 things might have been slightly different but still encouraging times ahead for me. 

A couple of key turning points were rovers scoring off that god awful kick for their 2nd try and then us failing to score off the pryce break on half time.  If they don't score there or we score off the break I think it's a different game but these small margins are what win and lose games.  rovers were much better at exploiting them than us

There's a good after match press conference with JC on the club youtube feed.  The big man is clearly disappointed but honest, both of which are good for me.  We're not a million miles away and if we can get everyone on the filed for a few weeks I think we're a match for most in the comp.  Very encouraging as we're miles ahead of where I thought we'd be but maybe a reflection on how poor the standard is in the comp overall
