Hide AdBarker says that forwards coaches Matt Smith and Christian Head have done great work with the pack since their arrival as part of the new Clifton Lane back room structure.
He was delighted with the effort put in against Darlington Mowden Park last week when the front eight matched their powerful opponents for long spells.
He said: "I think Matt and Christian have done an outstanding job with the forwards. They fronted up against a side last week that have controlled a lot of packs in this league and we really, really damaged them at times. I was really impressed with every individual.

Now Barker wants Rotherham to kick on as they face Rosslyn Park this Saturday. There's a full preview and all the analysis from last week in tomorrow's Advertiser.
Start time is 2pm.
