HULL KR: Winning start for Robins
A BRACE from winger Peter Fox and the trusty boot of Michael Dobson helped Justin Morgan's Hull KR side claim a deserved 30-12 win over Salford.
Dobson also added a try to finish with 16 points to add weight to Morgan's claims that this could be a good year for the Robins.

Peter Fox scores a try against Salford
More than 9,000 fans saw Rovers get their Super League campaign off to a winning start with a five-try attacking performance.
The other tries came from Clint Newton and Jake Webster, playing at stand-off.

“Another thick Hull fan who cannot read. Try reading the post below again, thicko.
So you judge your forwards ability on the strength of one game do you, a game that nobody could even see? I guess 'FC Kev' was one of the Hull fans wondering if they could go all season unbeaten after winning their first five games of 2009.
As you Hull fans always say, its not how you start, its how you finish.
Oh and congratulations Hull FC on your Grand Final and Challenge Cup wins.
Oooops, sorry, we've only played one game haven't we?
Muppets.
Wonder if Castleford fans think the same after winning at Leeds?”

“Are you having a laugh Dufus, None of your forwards could get anywhere near our first team front row now.
I used to rate Vella but he is well past his sell by date.
I wouldnt want any of your current team at the KC !”

“Derby result will depend on the pitch.
Rovers will win on a fast pitch and Hull will win on a wet pitch.
A combined team of Rovers' backs and Hull's forwards would go pretty close to winning Super League.”

“Well I "saw" some of the game and switched off cos you could't see a ******* thing. Maybe they should start recruting airline pilots and astronauts in West Hull cos you lot can evidently see stuff that nobody else can.
Hull did well to win at Saints don't get me wrong but don't any of you pretend you actually saw it cos nobody did bar the players and referee.
Ha ha ha, the derby. Seem to remember these hollow threats from the black and whites every year since 2007...and whats the score? 7-3 to Rovers. Remember the start of 2009 when you thought you were going to go all season unbeaten. Ha ha ha ha ha.
You win one game and, as every single year, you're gonna be unbeatable. Saints and Leeds are a long way from top form at the moment.....

“Rufus, Wow I love those super cameras sky have got that can 'enhance' their way through fog !!!
Theyre magic !
Put it this way, I saw enough of the game to be very happy with the way my team played and left me not even slightly concerned about facing Rovers this season (Especially having watched your lot the following day !)
Thanks for your concerns though !!”

“Rufus, Your right visability was very poor and you couldnt see from one end of the pitch to the other
BUT
it was clear enough for us to see enough of FC to know we are gonna bash your girlies all over the pitch come derby day !!
Cant wait !”

“And Rico, I'd be careful about making predictions cos they often come back to haunt you. remember those EIGHT EASY POINTS that you STILL haven't got three years later?”

“Rico, the pictures on TV are enhanced, the fog is much worse in reality as the commentators testified.
Of course, I'm sure from your position you could see both ends of the pitch clearly. I have spoken to friends who were there and they said you could hardly see a thing.
So, Rico, stop pretending you saw the game cos you saw about 20 yards worth of it.
Or do you have super human eyes that see through fog??
Somehow doubt it. The only tthing super about you is your ability to talk cr@p.”
