  1. Yes looks like 2-3 wins all season unless Ferguson/March can inject some tactics into our 22 attack. 3 games 3 tries won't win any matches. Predict Ferguson resigns mid-season and March takes over but too late to avoid relegation. .
  2. Aren't Catalan matches televised? Might be missing something here?
  3. Half-decent? One of the game's all time greats. Dual code international with 400 apps and over 2900 points https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Jones_(rugby,_born_1931) And remember 18-12 win well, we were bottom and Leeds were going great guns.
  4. Will add a wealth of coaching experience so a great appointment
  5. And contact training needs to be reduced. I spoke to a now young man I coached who was in a SL Academy. He said there was full on contact training nearly every day and this is in the last handful of years. If it still happens, it's got to stop. NFL only allow one contact session a week. And they play far less games and most players play far fewer game minutes. I have to say that much as I enjoy watching the game, when I see a "big hit" I just think, that's another step to brain damage. The evidence is irrefutable. The players can't know the risks and they are very young men many of whom knows nothing else.
  6. I'd prefer quicker PTBs as it makes for a more open game. If not, it just turns into a dull "arm wrestle"
  7. https://www.dewsburyreporter.co.uk/news/people/encouraging-signs-and-lots-of-positivity-dewsbury-rams-face-month-long-wait-for-competitive-action-after-challenge-cup-exit-4515356 Good to see this is being worked on. Both 1st half Bradford and last 20 mins v York, we allowed them to play the ball quickly and let them get a roll on and we were on the back foot. We barely got any quick ptbs
  8. "Dwyer is hesitant to reveal sign up numbers" means take up is poor. Understand the strategy of getting as many games on TV as possible to increase exposure. Agree the jury is still out
  9. Agree on the kicks, Turner set up quite a few from his high kicks and for himself through grubbers. And on touch kicks seem very risk averse. We need to make the most of every attacking opportunity. We just seem to have regressed to Lee Greenwood days as far as tactics are concerned. Can't fault the effort and grit but it will need more than that to stay up.
  10. Guessing this is to give fringe players on both sides a run out?
  11. Exactly, Turner is a full back who filled in as a 7 last season. He's a quality full back.
  12. Agree with this and also needs to happen at the top level. Kids copy their heroes so abuse and arguing with refs need to be clamped down on. But it won't be.
