Hull KR thru to Semi's!

[langpark]

They beat Warrington 40-36!:shock: Well done to them. Unfortunately tho, they will be drawn with either Leeds or St's IMO, rather than Huddersfield (or salford)

 

[LeagueXIII]

This game and the Leeds-Quins game can be seen on Foxtel this Friday from 3pm, replayed on Saturday. Maybe Foxtel is starting to wake up.

 

[Fairleigh Good!]

Hillarious scenes as the minnows evict Warrington from the Cup. They thoroughly deserved the win, but what on earth was going on with Warrington's defending? 40 points against a National League side?

Well done to KR. Would roll back the years to see the red band running out in a major final.

I'd love to see a St Helens v Leeds semi final. The romance in the other one as two minnows go to battle for a final berth would be fantastic.

A St Helens v KR final is the best thing we can hope for.;-)

The red and white scum thoroughly deserved their win today . I thought it would be one way traffic especially after Swann's two tries . The scum then rallied but it looked as though the Wolves could up their game whenever it was needed . All credit to the scum . It would be great if they could go on and get SL status . It would be four/six points gauranteed for the Airlie Birds . As for Fairleigh's cup final wish , now now old boy let's not let the scum have too much glory . A valiant semi defeat at the hands of Huddersfield would suffice .;-)

Well done to KR was well deserved. Played a good game to beat a good team. Thought Warrington would have run away with the game but again well done to them the best team on the day.

A leeds saints final is the best we can hope for.

Are HKR ready for Superleague? Missed it on the Beeb but heard there was a good crowd of 7000 or so there today, and they are unbeaten in NL1 thus far this season so they must be looking good for the move up... Unless the RFL suck off Wigan:shock:

Congradulations to Hull KR,well done.

Where did you come by that info? Hope they do show them. I'd love to see HKR play. I can't remember Fox ever showing CC quarter finals before so if they do it might indicate they are improving.

It's hard to say. They are probably good enough to get there and then they'd have to strengthen the squad considerably to stay there.

Don't get carried away with one result. HKR gave it their best shot and everything went right for them. Wire had a very bad day. If they played again the result would probably be reversed.

Did Jimmy Webster feature in the win? Hows he travelling over there?

Yep, Fox Australia have been looking to cover more of the C Cup than before, so I'd say LXIII is on the money.

Good for the game, the Hull KR win. They're a full time side so they're serious about results, but they are definitely minnows compared to the richer Superleague sides.

UTE, Jimmy Webster was given man of the match yesterday. Knocked back offers from Superleague clubs in the off season to stay at KR and help them try and earn promotion. Spent a bit of time out injured this year though I believe.

Got MoM I think, either way he seems to be a hero at Craven Park.

Credit where its due for Rovers, its like hell been an FC fan this week. As you can imagine.

 

[deluded pom?]

You're playing it wrong Marrow . Tell the scum fans how great their team is , they hate it if you don't rise to the bait .

 

[terracesider]

The worst is over pm. HKR is still the draw the other teams want.

Yep got man of the match. Fantastic kicking game allowed KR to dominate field position and also scored a few tries from kicks. Very impressive.

As stated had a good kicking game but gave some dodgy passes at times , especially to Michael Smith who got a few murder balls . Also didn't know when to close the game down resulting in a stupid pass in the dying minutes that almost resulted in a Michael Sullivan intercept that would have won the game for Warrington . I personally would have given Fisher MOM . But then again I am a bitter and twisted Hull F.C. fan .;-)

 

[Utey]

His a smart footballer. Thanks for the info guys. Great to see him going so well.

o brilliant! I'll tune in for sure! It's gonna be awesome being able to get a glimpse of a venue that we never get to see!

The officials ruined the Leeds v Quins game for me . The Quins were losing 12-10 but for me were the better team . Ali Lauitiiti comes on and Leeds blitz the Quins with three tries in nine minutes . Unfortunately in my opinion all three tries contained a forward pass . Wham , sixteen points on the board and Quins are now chasing a game they were well in reach of . Strangely enough Lauitiiti gets MOM with about half an hours game time . That't how impressive Leeds were . Huddersfield shouldn't be too worried .
