Will clubs now learn that appointing former players to off-field roles based solely on their reputation as a player is a recipe for disaster? Peacock signed a bunch of substandard players, a substandard coach, suspended Hull KR's best player at the most important part of the season, reinstated himself as a player and ended up standing around watching as Salford scored the winning drop goal because he wasn't fit enough to put pressure on the kicker.

Not often we agree , but the nail is firmly hit on the head there

Getting relegated like that is one grim end to Jamie Peacock's career, especially as it originally ended by winning the Treble. As you say though, he wasn't qualified to do the job in the first place. He was also whinging about it not being fair in his Daily Mirror column this morning. Unlucky.

Life's not fair.

Leeds winning from 5th ain't fair. But I did not hear him moaning about that.

Of course its unacceptable. The media and papers like the daily mail will totally exaggerate the story though. I wouldn't mind too much if they gave as much coverage to the actual game but they won't.

There are loads of my friends talking about Salford on social media this evening. Most of them are big football fans who have very little interest in rugby league. They are talking about how exciting the game was, what a comeback etc and are delighted that their local rugby team won. Not one of them has mentioned the fighting at the end of the game. I wish the media would at least give a balance between the positives and negatives from today's game.

Please can you measure the term 'loads' please? I saw approx 4 or 5 people throwing punches. Totally unacceptable and from viewing the video someone has posted on the internet it should be easy to identify some of those idiots.



I didn't see any of the incidents out side of the ground and not sure if your term 'loads of fighting' means I missed other incidents on the pitch?

well actually it was fair but I digress.



I said peacock should have stayed retired, he has embarrassed himself and his reputation both with his comments and the way he has 'played', and I use that word loosely,

The entire Salford contingent invaded the pitch and handful of idiots from our sude went on after being goaded.

Seems to be mostly yourself bigging this up to some kind of war zone

No they didnt. I was at the game and I didnt invade the pitch. A fair percentage did invade the pitch. I was asking how many were fighting. I saw a handful fighting. I wouldnt describe this as 'loads' but maybe there are incidents I am unaware of?

Daily Mail journalist in the making

gallanteer you're out of order. There was probably as many hull kr fans actually fighting as there were salford. Most of the salford fans on the pitch were celebrating, and rightly so! Your boys took one hell of a beating!
