DoubleD

I've not bought my tickets for Wembley yet, just Everton and Headingley. There's less interest amongst my group of friends for Wembley, looking like only 2-3 of us will go, but I'm trying to push it as an event and do hospitality for a change. I don't expect we'll finalise tickets/numbers till September or maybe even October

Much like the team and sport itself

He certainly doesn’t appear as effective outside of his Panthers unit

He probably should've been penalised (yellow card) but Mitchell is the biggest grub going so what goes around comes around

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer bloke

No chance

I am not going to comment on the core numbers but the % variance is not reflective of what is seen on the ground so will take it with a pinch of salt. Did they use the same methodology the ONS do?

Yeah he’s been very good for Leeds and will certainly be a loss, no matter how you dress it up. There’s no one in the academy who can replace him. Butterfield is most promising prop but he’s a million miles away from the level Lisone is at. Cassell will come in for Gannon next year but we will need to look overseas for a replacement for Lisone and with the quotas going to 10, everyone is going to be scrapping for talent. Perhaps someone like Bunty Afoa might be an option, given he’s fallen out of favour a bit with the Warriors

Given he’s clinging to his job at Sheffield by his fingernails, I somewhat doubt it

Another comfortable win for the champions elect

Hodgson deserves it but Niu, Trout and Hanley were also exceptional. Trout massively outshone other English props of Havard and Thompson

Wigans soft underbelly on show again

Compare this game to the dross that was served up last night. Night and day in terms of speed and intensity

Kalyn Ponga likely ruled out for the rest of the season with a lisfranc (metatarsal) injury

Dodd is on the bench for the Bunnies this weekend but will certainly be off next year as Souths have just signed Jonah Glover to play in the halves
