One of the “dads army” forwards in locky moors and koppy will not play for me and will be rotated out, think they will all take turns having a spell out of the team and will be managed accordingly throughout the season
I think Yei showed enough sunday to warrant a place in the 17 though i see him as a pen machine the way he flys out of the line going fir the big hit and misses more than he connects
Cooper hasnt done enough in pre season to get in at all - I dont think Longy is a fan either with his distinct lack of minutes
Think Lacans gets in the 17 but the weather forecast may play a role in the bench - if its ###### there will be 3 forwards on the bench, if its decent a utility player will get in

It looks like there are four or five rows of seating in front of their hospitality cabins at the far end of the ground, but I can imagine they are going to be quite popular and don't know if they can be reserved.
The east stand is currently a building site and nowhere near finished yet and the north stand (the large terraced area behind the sticks that had a roof over it) also looks to be closed at the moment. so it's basically just the western terracing and then those few seats behind the posts at the far end.
See the video below from their first pre-season game
Half of North stand is open by all accounts for Sundays game

Cas squad looks average at best - a lot of youth in there with a smattering of first teamers
Seems like it will be a missed opportunity for a decent gate, think a lot of cas fans wont bother now

Not a new signing - only on trial - local lad from the lions
Not to be confused with Jake “The Snake” Roberts

As Gale's half back partner?
Feel sorry for their other HB Miller - think he was their top scorer and outshone chizzy for much of that season

Funny thing P if you read the article, it says possible move is all down to Joey
Finally, the three-quarter Samoan center of Featherstone in 225 NRL matches, Joey Leilua (30) has approached the Dragons. A second track that the club is studying if the player makes the necessary financial efforts.
Think that is more down to the translation from french to english rather than the player actually approaching another club

Looks like the 2017 away shirt

Matty Russell from Tolouse been banded about.
Not really - someone posted a poorly executed photoshop of matty russells head onto matty wildie and put it on fev fans fb page as a wind up
People who probably should know better actually fell for it as a genuine photo

Probably not the time you'd choose to play Keighley - first season back, at their place in front of what is sure to be a lively crowd, and against a certain half back who you know is going to be all geared up to put on a show. But it's a cracking season-opener for the TV cameras, bring it on!
I disagree - on a probable muddy, definately cold & possibly a wet pitch in february - think he will be nullified a bit & it will be a forwards match so think its a perfect time to get them out of the way

Seems like a very defensive orientated coaching set up!
Get ready for plenty of 60-44 games!

No

The last statement from hummel is telling - we didnt make it
But who quite frankly cares why the deal ended?
Everyones clearly moved on and on life goes
-
Like TPH said and some appear to have forgotten - Weve been here before with PNG halfbacks shining at big tournaments & looking world beaters and then flopping at club level for us months later
Boas was on top of the world & a coup signing a few years ago, raved anout by many, but didnt get through the season and cant even get in a Doncaster team every week now if still there
I wont be jumping on the bandwagon till hes done it on a cold wet sunday afternoon at Batley

That french second rower Le Cam to be announced sometime next week
Dont know about Featherstone Flamingos - it seems Frogs was more of an appropriate name the way its going

Longy must be having a word in the french players ears during training whispering “come to fev”
Cant say i know much about this bloks, i cant say ive seen his name on the cats team sheet often despite the atricle saying he “packed in some SL experience”
Brings down the pack average age if anything being only 22

Not related to our coaching situation but a bit of a surprising move from elsewhere...Fordy reportedly going to Wakefield, but as an assistant to their inexperienced rookie head coach Mark Applegarth
https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/james-ford-york-city-knights-25211862
Not that suprising - its been a done deal for a couple of weeks

Great appointment for me

Jamie hobbs who does all the fev tv stuff posted on the fev fans facebook page the host website needed to perform some maintenence and it would be down for a while

Said on another thread I hope its not Hardman
Whilst a club legend no way is this the right job for him - not only is there added weight of expectation but hes too inexperienced to take on a job like this at this stage of his coaching career plus if it starts to unravel and go wrong - what would be the implications of his life outside of work? He is MC son in law after all - They do say never work with family members
If Hardman is harbouring ambitions of being a top man surely he has to step away and hone his skills elsewhere
-
Off to carry water onto pitch in NRL is Jacks
-
Failed the brief has to go
Hope some of the dads army pack go with him
Hopefully the new man is not Ian Hardman
An embarassing season of failure all round

For some reason the game is segregated - Batley been given the seating behind the sticks
-
Think we are a different animal to when Batley played us at home last time - we were rife with injuries and had a decimated pack - the pack is back - cant see another upset

latest from our favourite reporter

The article doesnt say or read like that at all, no way is it taking the mick out of us
i actually thought it was a well done article & its not hard to argue with the overall analysis, i cant say i disagree with much of it and the placings of the teams
i read it that Walker & Gale are still two big names & eye opening signings with “star” quality attached to them, but they are just individuals whereas weve signed numerous quality signings who are just below being a considered a “star” signing like a Walker or Gale - totally agree
