7s seem to be a rare commodity but we seem to be especially slow to pick up good ones. When was last decent 7 we had? Thacks?

Hard to fathom if he has. I thought he was starting to look good. I assumed he was injured.

I simply dont care BSJ. The “facts” remain - we didnt go under - and we had one of the best seasons we ever had, playing the best rugby we probably ever have. It literally is that simple. For information I too was a member at that time. Would I change anything? 100% not. But am I thankful we have our saviour in MS. I’d give both he and Sir Bob a MBE.

Many a club have been close to closing and haven’t. And many have had success on the back of a bit of over spending - You panic too much BSJ. We’ve had two moments of magic in my 50+ years of following Dewsbury. 1973 and 2000. One of them was down to Bob the great. If you never dream Wots the point? Long live Sir Dermott I say.

Which ever is the daftest and least likely to work will undoubtedly win. Will SL allow two extra teams in though? Seems unlikely on past experience.

Lots of lovely messages on Facebook. Seems impossible we won’t hear “legs, Dews, legs” again. RIP Elsie

But we didn’t close down did we? And we aint had much else to cheer about since so thank goodness for Bob McDermott I say. Will always be a hero for me

Who knows how this one will go. We never know what we’re going to get until kick off with this lot. That said away form has been cracking so fingers crossed.

I’d have thought I’d have thought he would have been asked. He might have spent a tad too much but had he not no one would have been up there celebrating on Saturday- cos we would have won nowt. I won’t say anything bad about him. One of best teams we ever had. At the same time we owe MS a massive debt of gratitude.

Like the look of Dec so far so pleased with this news. Once the Coach and players work out he can offload and throw a decent pass and reckon he’ll be even better.

Well, unlike most of the posters I thought we were much better than last week. Ok, no where near perfect, still no backing up and not an ideal first half by any stretch but I thought we tried to play a little wider from the start and it was much less down the middle than against Goole. Much better with Keenan on the wing I have to say. Thought Hookem was MoM. Never looks like an old style 7 but he never stopped working and must have been close to the top of the tackle count. We were also better when both Toby and Dec were on together.

Ditto

Agree 100% and wish that we could have Sam Day play, but coaches love tacklers and I’m relatable informed that he’s one of our best in that regard. Rather frustratingly I see that Reiss Butterworth has played one game for Sheffield. Boy oh boy he’d be massive for us in this league.

As it happened I would have been better fixed watching tv.

Was poor tonight. Simples….
