Surely if Hardy is not fit you move wynne into the centres & Wacokecoke comes back into the fold? Id be suprised if Gorman plays for us again. Think this is a game where we may get away with changes & rotation, after a good start, Haven have played very average the last couple of games, hopefully the weather is decent up there at the weekend

Dont agree they were “impressive against halifax” - 40-14 was a very flattering scoreline - they had a really poor 1st half & in the second half they got the 50/50 descisions & some of their tries came off very wicked bounces of the balls on the 3G pitch falling their way which 9 times out of 10 dont happen, but they say these bits of luck fall your way when you are at the top Most things go through Gilmore, with Owens in close support, if we stop these two then we have a good chance, which will increase if we get Reynolds again. Regarding injuries, i dont remember Springer coming out for the second half?

Even with players missing, im not as confident as some on here that much will change. I just cant see it The only difference i see when they are back is maybe the scoreline is switched the other way round in our favour - & we will win by 10pts With this years best 17 available (which i also dont think we will see once this season) i see victories by 4-10pts, with not a lot of points in the game & a lot of scraping by wins What we look to be serving up, I dont think we have a team this year that is capable of recording a comfortable win At the same time i also see a lot of potentially narrow defeats too We wont blow teams away like years gone by, but we wont get blown away either Everyone best get prepared for it - its going to be a very up & down year

Brad Day should hang his head in shame - i think he cost us the game tonight London were plodding in that set he got binned, made 20m & tip tackles the player on the 5th tackle London score 18pts whist hes off & win the game Left the comeback too late when London were gassed in that last 20 but it would have papered over the cracks in reality Manage to catch Kyle Amors summary of us at the end of the game - poor signings mixed in with turmoil on & off the pitch - he is bang on Do not see us getting amongst the elite in my lifetime & im only in my 30’s - i see seasons of struggle ahead now IMG are in, support will tail off big style Regarding 2024 Im also another supporter who is not investing in a season ticket next year & will pick their games - Wakefield H at the minute is the only game im semi interested in going to

Widnes gave that up in the last 20 mins but were utterly dominated in the second half - I dont think they got into our 20 at all in that second period, never mind look like posting any points, another season goes by where Widnes are put to the sword Thought Leilua had a good game - he started to come good as the playoffs were about to begin last season & history is repeating itself, some strong running throughout from all & we scored a couple of good tries Nice week off now to shake off the niggles & watch the others knock 10 bells out of each other

Thats because toulouse really only had a 10 min period at the end of the first half where they were on par with us for me - aside from that I thought we outplayed them and its a richly deserved victory To nil them in the second half and go over there and win, the only team to go over there & win all season is a big statement considering the play offs are round the corner, massive psychological boost for us

Reynolds was dire the last time he was with us on loan Also did nothing last season but wind up the supporter & get sin binned in the home game
-
Dire game Both teams too many errors & too many brainfarts - drop outs out on the full from us, knocking on scrums on the first tackle 6 pts on the floor due to Gales brainfart a few mins into second half - think the floodgates might have opened if he passes on the inside there instead of being greedy Not one that will love long in the memory - but we won it, perhaps because we were a forward interchange up when their lad went off after 15 mins & never came back? Took their toll on them in the heat i think The whippy ice cream from the ice cream van was quite tasty so thats a positive to take away

That was at Keighley A that season
