I noted that Brown and Gledhill were not playing last week. Does anyone on here have news of absent or injured players? I get why coaches may want to keep these things quiet sometimes but for fans it's nice to know.

On the plus side no extra charge for any of the stands, just go where you like.

It has been said that Dean's favourite position is centre. Whether JK will think it right to risk him at centre is another matter of course .

John Kear back as coach until the end of the season! Just announced.

Well said Scrim Reaper; in my opinion a very reasonable and sensible summary of the situation.

Thoroughly enjoyable game. Barrow will gain a lot of friends with their brand of Rugby. And five tries from the Bulldogs was a treat.

That's good to know. Like Phildog I'd not picked up on Facebook comments.

Any news on Render's injury?

Brown Dean Woods

No Brown in the squad? He will be missed.

I've checked out Luke Thomas online. Wikepedia say that he is 0.79 inches tall and weights 629 stone. That should be interesting!

Kear has played rather more International games on the wing than at centre Phil. He is a versatile player though with lots of appearances at club level at centre, lots at full back, some at half back and the highest number on the wing. He's a great squad player.

Well, thanks for the clarification.
