船体 FC coach Richard Agar 脅すd to show the door to some of the players who took the 黒人／ボイコット and Whites to Wembley last week after they capitulated against arch-競争相手s 船体 KR.

‘I think some blokes have had their last chance,’ said a disconsolate Agar.

‘The only 肯定的な to come out of today’s game is that it is the end of the season.

‘I know it has been a 堅い week after losing in the Challenge Cup final but somethings are inexcusable and today summed up our season. Not good enough.’

It did not help Agar or his players that almost every Rovers try was 迎える／歓迎するd with a taunting chorus of ‘You’ll never 勝利，勝つ at Wembley’ from the home fans in a ground 記録，記録的な／記録する 出席 of 10,197.

This emphatic 勝利，勝つ was never really in 疑問 as 船体 played like a 味方する drained of all emotion by the Wembley experience and months of indifferent form and 傷害.

船体, who have finished in 11th place, hoped that James Webster’s belated debut in a 黒人／ボイコット and white shirt ― against the club he served with such distinction for three-and-a-half years ― would have fairy-tale connotations. They were left disappointed.

Webster was 完全に 影を投げかけるd by the fellow Australian scrum half who has taken his place in the hearts of the Rovers fans.

Michael Dobson deservedly took the man of the match award with a thor oughly competent 業績／成果, although Agar had a 手段 of sympathy for Webster.

The 船体 coach said: ‘He was living off 捨てるs because of the number of unforced errors we were making so it must have been very 失望させるing.’

Dobson joined 船体 KR on a short-称する，呼ぶ／期間／用語 契約 but is already in 会談 with the club to 延長する it. The 失望／欲求不満 for Rovers is that they have ended the 正規の／正選手 season in seventh place, one below the cutoff for the play-offs, although that 代表するs 改良 after finishing 11th in their first year in 最高の League last season.

Coach Justin Morgan said: ‘It would have been nice to make the play-offs but I am 満足させるd with our 進歩. We have beaten every one of the clubs above us except 物陰／風下d.

‘I am 5-3 up in the derbies but 船体 did the whole city proud by getting to Wembley last week and it was always going to be difficult for them to get 支援する up after that.’

Rovers were ahead after 10 minutes, Jake Webster getting his winger Jon Steel over in the corner for Dobson to land the first of his goals.

The RFL had decided on a ground-breaking 実験 at this game by using a ビデオ 審判（をする） at a 非，不，無-テレビ放送するd fixture for the first time.

Ashley Klein’s first call was to 支配する on a Rovers ‘try’ by Kris Welham, which he disal lowed. But he 支配するd in favour of Makali Aizue when he won the race for Ben Fisher’s kick after Dobson 変えるd a 刑罰，罰則.

Dobson then 始める，決める up a try for Ben Cockayne and it took 船体 until the last minute of the half to get some points on the board with a try from centre Kirk Yeaman.

Rovers led 18-4 at the break before another Yeaman touchdown 生き返らせるd the travelling 支持者s. But 船体 just couldn’t catch the ball and Rovers rubbed in their 最高位 and greater 願望（する） with その上の tries from Peter Fox, 船長／主将 Mick Vella and old favourite Stanley 遺伝子 ― arguably the most popular 得点する／非難する／２０ of this High Noon contest.
