  1. Doesn’t look a good one on paper due to lack of experience but sometimes these type of appointments can surprise. I am sure he’ll get some help from Uncle Tony.
  2. Elliot Whitehead top on decoy runs too!
  3. I heard the commentator say Dom Young will be playing for Jamaica at the World Cup. From what I’ve seen his stamina is his biggest challenge. Often appeared out of breath and had some cramp issues with about 10 to go. Very we’ll taking try though and will continue to learn.
  4. Baily Hodgson: “Newcastle is on the verge of debuting the nephew of Canberra hooker Josh Hodgson. The club has written 18-year-old Baily Hodgsonhas recovered from pre-season knee surgery and is now ready for selection. He is a fullback or can line up in the centres”.
  5. Dom Young is back for NSW Cup after injury.
  6. How did Dom get on?
  7. He’s on the pitch!
  8. Farnworth article - hopefully he’ll play tomorrow https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/english-eyes-brisbane-broncos-starlet-22096696
  9. Whilst I agree that it's ultimately the players responsibility to perform, it's the coaches job to prepare the players, make the transfers and pick the right team. Peter Gentle has IMO done a dreadful job in all three of these areas. He's made a number of poor signings and has failed to get the best out of a decent squad which is, I assume, costing them right up to the salary cap. Adam Pearson should be apologising to the fans not for the poor showing but for continuing to persevere with a manager who is clearly not going to bring them the success that a big club like Hull FC need.
  10. If we can get all those guys back who are 50-50 inc. clubb, sarginson, witt, cook and Robertson then we have a chance. It's a shame there's so many injuries especially when the Wigan stars are likely to return. Whatever happens broncos must chance their arm, plenty of offloads and play as if attack is their only defence.
  11. That could mean 4 SL teams relegated in one season. That would certainly make the middle tier interesting along with the top tier for normal reasons but not sure of the significance of the third tier!
  12. Cheers. That makes sense! So 4 teams from SL would be dragged into the middle tier along with the best 4 from the Championship, which would currently mean Broncos, Salford, Widnes, Castleford, Featherstone, Sheffield, Halifax and Leigh. So my next question is how would they decide promotion from this tier into SL for the following year ie surely it wouldn't be the top 4 would it?
  13. Guys, I've just seen the Nigel Wood interview on Boots N All, which was interesting. I think it's clear that he's pushing for the three-8's, what I don't understand is what will happen to the clubs accumulated points once the leagues split into 3? (Sorry if this has been asked before). Will the clubs simply restart at zero or will their points be taken to the new league?
  14. If its true what you say then its a shame not more Aussies are aware of the WC. However it's far more important that the British people are made aware of the tourno as we're the ones who'll be attending the matches, buying merchandise, helping increase UK viewing figures etc. This kind of promotion isn't a bad start with still 100 days to go. I hope they continue and build some momentum.
  15. I actually think this is a clever idea. I've seen lots of updates on Facebook. I expect its raising awareness and interest at minimal expense. I'm pleasantly surprised at the concept.
