Very interesting...

Surely not?!

Sorry, total brain fade.

If Sheffield wanted rid I'd assume his release was agreed by mutual consent and everything just written off

It's a shame, he looked an excellent signing in pre-season, ran good lines and made breaks. Hope he can sort his injuries and get back playing, wherever that might be.

Our pack has been a disappointment for a variety of different reasons. Day and Boothroyd looked like a line breaking second row partnership in pre-season, unfortunately they've both had long periods of injuries. Akauola looked a monster when playing against plumbers pre-season, but is less fit than me, and I'm 37 and 19 stone. Williams, Stevens and Webb I'm convinced are the same person. Springer has been the one bright spot in the pack, but he's missed time too and we've missed him when he's not there.

We seem to have decided that Gareth Gale is a better prop / second rower than people like Arnold. Which is certainly a choice.

The club's website is embarrassing. Results? What are those? The squad hasn't been updated since it was added. Ryan Hampshire? Never heard of him mate. Poor Jimmy Beckett still isn't on there. I'd be thrilled if I'd paid to be his sponsor. The fact that there isn't a full fixture list on there is just baffling. I was ensured by the Blue Wall's Voice it would be updated once the media team got up to speed. I can only assume they're still using a dial up connection.

They performed better than the 17 that showed up yesterday, despite being sat in the stands.
