Also probably frees up Hardy to be a permanent 2nd row.

I'd differ in my view on that. Far easier to reverse in and pull out forwards, giving far better vision as you leave the space. If you're a halfway competent driver, shouldn't take any longer to back in either. I'd agree with @Padge about parking nose in at a supermarket however.

Apparently it was filmed, and the club intend to put it online for those who weren't able to attend, myself included. No idea when though...

Been there, got the compensation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-60369098 -
At the risk of deviating off topic (sorry Colin), interesting to see Olpherts getting votes here given the slating he tends to get in other posts on the forum, and on the terraces. I can't say he's been outstanding since joining us, and has had at least one shocker, but he's nowhere near as bad as some want to make out. I do wonder at times of he's just a fan scapegoat given he's taken Gale's place.

First two tries of TO seemed fairly well worked to me, and for much of the rest of the game it seemed two reasonably well matched but average teams. Overall I'd agree with Phil's comments. It does feel like a number of questions looking back though. If your starting prop can only manage 12 mins, couldn't they do a short second stint later, even if just to try to gain match fitness? Is a fully fit but average championship half back a better option than a clearly unfit but top end championship halfback? Does repeatedly changing the kick-off time have a detrimental impact on attendance?

Highlights now out, so a few more thoughts from watching live. Nothing new, just reiterates thoughts. Physically, we still look like 12 2nd rows, plus Springer. As long as Vuniyayawa, Beckett, et al play above their size, we'll manage at this level. It's an open league and we've a decent team, let's embrace that. Ignoring the shocking tackle attempts for the first try, York's second and third were well worked. We'd have been happy to score them. Connor Jones shouldn't have outjumped the defense for our first try. Great effort. Rocky may or may not be a good goal kicker. His technique looks rushed, which is going to panic fans. Like it or not we're a championship team. Let's enjoy entertaining and challenging games, not assuming we'll win every week.

One example here, Riley Dean recalled from York to send to Dewsbury. I'm sure it won't be the only one, often between SL and 2 Championship clubs. https://dewsburyrams.co.uk/2021/08/06/dean-joins-on-loan-from-warrington/

Not the first time a season long loan hasn't lasted anywhere near a season, and won't be the last.

I remember them as a cornerstone of several high streets I grew up with as a kid, particularly Ponte where I lived. Equally I now look at them as a an expensive shop amongst many at airports. I'm 48, and it's probably at least 30 years+ since I purchased from them other than their airport outlets. It's both sad and unsurprising in equal measures
