Dear oh dear seems to me some of the Chester bashers must never have played the game or even trained for it. The Catalans pack is probably one of the top two packs in super league and not many teams will handle them plus they have very classy players all over the park and could probably coach themselves. If i had a choice between Chester and Macnamara I would take Chester every time. As for Powell I thought we were better against Catalans yesterday than Castleford were... Читать дальше...

If Walker Myler and Lui are all back think we should and probably will go with

1. Walker
2. T.Briscoe
3. Newman
4. Hurrell
5. Handley
6. Lui
7. Gale
8. Seumanufagui
9. Leeming
10. Oldezki
11. Thompson
12. Martin
13. Prior

Subs
14. Dwyer
15. L.Sutcliffe
16. Holroyd
17. Cuthbertson

Personally I'd like Mclelland to keep his place but can't see it if Lui is back but Mclelland should get game time over the coming weeks with the games coming thick and fast from now on. Читать дальше...

If you go to Rochdale Honkytonk. They have a room in which there is a museum dedicated to Rochdale RLFC and its history.
The museum for which they received funding from various sources, was very well done and interesting. The club was justifiably proud of it.
This proves that it can be done, with some initiative and effort.
To compare the Broncos put its history in the skip.

Getting a bit worried now. Thought we would’ve tied up at least one CB by now.

Aaron Murphy next signing from Huddersfield.

Just pointing out to you that Racism works both ways .
I have made my comments on Floyd and why i believe the officers involved will not be convicted on murder charges based on the Autopsy.In fact in my opinion they will all get off.Death was due to a heart disease not asphyxiation which rules out unlawfull killing by kneeling on his neck
With two different drugs inside his body you can see why he resisted arrest but remember... Читать дальше...

The new Wimbledon AFC stadium is almost complete and I was thinking it would be the perfect ground in terms of capacity and location for London.
We really should be looking to build a long term relationship with the Wimbledon club coz Trailfinders is in the middle of nowhere

Haven’t really followed all of this WAFC stuff and certainly not reading 28 pages - I’ve seen a few mentions of impact on our use of the stadium; can someone sum up what the situation is around this and what our problem is?
Thanks.

Just a thought, but if RL scrums become redundant (Which seems more than likely) has anyone wondered what new names will be bestowed on the positions of: Scrum half, prop,hooker, 2nd rower and loose forward? Any suggestions?

I’m not sure you know, if Hastings and French go and we get Field and Reynolds in as direct replacements, you’d still think they’ll feel like an option of a guy who can play 7 and 9 will be invaluable. If you want a bench halfback/hooker and go in with Smith starting at seven and Bourouh bench, you’re one injury away from both starting and having nobody for the bench in that role. A player/coach role with Leuluai being phased out over the season may not be a bad shout. Читать дальше...

Could be a pivotal game with where we are heading this season. Walker and Myler should be fit to return, Lui and Seumanufagai may also. Still without Donaldson, Ward, Crosby and Smith.

Walker, Briscoe, Newman, Hurrell, Handley, Lui, Gale, Seumanufagai, Leeming, Prior, Martin, Dwyer, Sutcliffe, Myler, Cuthbertson, Oledzki, Thompson, Evans, McLelland, Briscoe, Holroyd.

With Briscoe, Mclelland, Evans and Walker/Myler/Lui to drop out.

Get rid permanently. Now is the time where we make that decision?

It’s a game we need I think. A step up from the two fixtures so far and we’ll have to be much better but we look like we’ve got plenty of improvement in us. The team should be the strongest it’s been since the return. There are some tough calls to make in the forwards especially. I’d probably go-

French
Manfredi Hardaker Bibby Marshall
Hastings Leuluai
Byrne Powell Bullock
Isa Farrell Havard

Subs
G Burgess Lockers Greenwood Smithies

A week off for Harry Smith for me. Читать дальше...

I don't think you can make a statement like that without justifying it.

Increased TV coverage raises the profile of the sport, which in turn encourages people to attend, buy replica shirts and merchandise, which brings in further sponsorship and investment.

I would like to see a study that somehow refutes this.

I'm always open minded to listening to the arguments for and against expansion, however, the one thing that does always leave me curious about the proposed North American clubs, is that if the game is going to be such a success over there, then why don't they simply start their own league, instead of going through the hassle of joining our championship and all the barriers that that will throw up, like having to gain promotions and sorting out travel issues for opponents and the like?

I think that Chris Chester should look at the tries we conceded yesterday from kicks.

I am not happy with our win ratio over the last twenty odd games and while being the first to admit an improvement on last week it still is not good enough.

A lot of hard work and effort was wasted yesterday by poor reaction to kicks and collectively the coaching staff must be blind to how many tries we are conceding due to poor defending of kicks.

Yesterday they varied their kicking between:

As time goes by it's easy to forget how good Kirmo was for such a long time. Injuries towards the latter part of his career didn't help but then again he always put his body on the line so it's no surprise he got injured. When other players bottled playing in our CC Semi he stood up to play and make the numbers up when he should have been nowhere near the squad due to his injury. Shows you the character.
He's certainly had a good SL Career and whatever he does next, I hope it's a success.

If the crowds albeit in limited numbers are allowed back in October how many actual home games will we have left. We will have played in theory three home games in the first four since the restart.

Look like the real deal this season, flattered to deceive so many times in the past but they really look the business now.
Toughest test of the season coming up.

Would have loved to see him complete that half break when he put a half foot on the line.

You'd think he would have been more familiar with that pitch width?

There may be some particularly nasty trolling above, please do ignore this everyone. My hero Snowie will sort it

Looking at the attendances during the Bulls better times in Superleague they visited Leeds and the crowd was 21,000. A fair comparison (and no disrespect) could be the 14.000 crowd Leeds got for Salford that same season, so it may be a lot fairer to conclude up to 7,000 Bulls fans went to Headingley for the game.

However, the Bulls Salford crowd was 12,000 at Odsal. Читать дальше...
