Off Topic HKR Having a fantastic day

Well the Aussies have won the test series. England played well enough today but defensively Australia are a different level.
It was crying out for someone like Jake Connor to inject some creativity.

 

it was crying out for Joe Burgess on the wing - Johnstone was poor - gave a try away and ran in treacle down the left - he must have something on Shaun Warne plus Lewis should have been on for Williams

 

I haven't seen either test yet, i'll have a binge day when all three have been played.
It's a good job the next is a sell out because I think the attendance would've been affected.

 

i went to both but didn't get tickets for Headingley which was a good decision with hindsight

 

Not such a fantastic day when they had a whole load of kit stolen.
Soon to be on sale at Walton Street market. Other local markets may be available.

The obvious thing to do is change the design that they officially sell then those wearing the stolen shirts can be easily spotted

A number of limited-edition rugby shirts made for Super League champions Hull Kingston Rovers' match in Las Vegas next year have been stolen, the club says.

The shirts had been designed to allow supporters to match what the team will wear when they face the Leeds Rhinos at the Allegiant Stadium in February 2026.

West Yorkshire Police said the shirts, which were in boxes, were taken from a lorry on Upper Wortley Road, Leeds, in the early hours of Friday 24 October.

Hull KR said the shirts had not been made available to buy and urged anyone who is approached by resellers to contact the police.

Details of when fans can order the limited-edition shirt, priced at £53.99, will be confirmed later in November, a club spokesperson added.

 

No one suggested yet it will have been City fans so they can pose as rugby fans whilst tearing down the posts?

 

i like subtle provocative little digs at rivals.

Speaking on the upcoming clash, Hull KR Chief Executive, Paul Lakin said: “We’d like to place on record our thanks to the Brisbane Broncos, the NRL, Rugby League Commercial and stadium hosts Hull City, for their support in making the game happen.

I noticed that.

 

Rovers have also sold all their season passes for next season, 10,000 and three thousand for general sale.

 

Are any Rovers fans happy about this? The biggest home game in their existence and they have to move it to the home of their bitter rivals. If I were them, I’d have kept it at Craven Park, it would have given them the best chance of winning.

 

Rovers seem to have a good recent record at the MKM

 

They like to party there, but get confused with the 'bring a bottle' request.

 

Yeah that wasn’t too clever

 

Nothing can have happened as despite the state of the art CCTV we are told can identify City fans doing the slightest thing there hasn’t been a single arrest.

 

I think Rovers are going by the two balcony crowds although personally now i've thought about it, keep it at Craven Park.

 

What's a balcony crowd?

 

they're having 200 x £200 hospitality seats in Circle restaurant - bumper crowd and better facilities for the Broncos - I think it's perfectly understandable - agree with sentiment but the sport needs all the money it can get and this fixture at the MKM should guarantee a bumper payday as well

 

You know what I mean twat.
