Oh no. How sad. One of my favourite players. Great rugby mind and can still remember the commentator saying something like “that’s £35 making £350,000 look rubbish” as he rounded John Gallagher who Leeds had just signed for a record fee in a Challenge Cup tie at Headingley. Happy days. RIP Chris. Up there with marquis, Eddie and Dennis for me.

What was the gate like? Anyone know?

Madness isn’t it? You’d think with all that AI these days a computer somewhere could make a better job of splitting the home and away fixtures

What a bummer. Will be a massive loss

Got to be a good thing if it works. I am sure however that there will be any number of “fiddles” available if needed, or is that me just showing my ever increasing scepticism again

6 weeks without a home game for now and we rearrange the Rochdale fixture so we have two home games in 4 days

Can’t see us getting anything at their gaff even with Danny Addy back. Could be a long month in truth. Three very tricky away games and nowt at home. Of the three I’d think we have more chance at Sheffield but we always seem to find it difficult there

Could be just what the club needs. Not long since MS was telling us how much it costs to keep the ground going. Any input from the Giants would be a massive bonus. Not sure what it would do for their IMG points mind

Missed it and as with BSJ am beginning to wonder if me missing all the gnaes games would make us table toppers. from the highlights can only agree that Monty Lund is standout. In fact, he’s looking so good I reckon he’s nearly as good as Macker

A wedding rules me out this week but hoping for a home win against a team below us in the league. BUT, as we keep saying nothing is certain in this league and I’ll be crossing everything come Sunday. They stuffed Hunslet away not long ago before losing comfortably to Sheffield at home so who knows.

Another interesting score from our league. Sheffield only just beating us seemingly finding fax easy

Think we will get to 10. I would like to think we will beat Goole at theirs for the simple reason that we are away and the lads will think they could have won that one at home. As for the other games ? Who knows? Some very strange results coming in week after week. We could do Rochdale, Hunslet and Workington at home and maybe Whitehaven away. Not sure about Batley at home nor Halifax and think we will get another surprise win some where along the line. Think we dropped lucky missing Donny, London and Oldham

Just cos we “got” MoM doesn’t mean he was MoM. I like him but think Coates is getting better. Not sure why he didn’t play Sunday.

Would be a very good win if we pulled it off but I’m making no predictions- impossible to know whether the home ar away team will turn up. Interesting to see walker given a start. Had forgotten he even played for us

Usually much better away
