After watching the Keighley V Town game, it was evident to me that Keighley are not a bad team and played some nice rugby; sadly for them, Town were on fire on Sunday. I'm sure going forward, they will do ok.

Not sure that this will be a competitive game, looking at the Thunder's recent results.

Jordan always gives his best.

I think you should re-watch the game on YouTube, I'm sure you will change your mind on the above comments.

Think center would be ideal for him.

No Farrar this week.

Apparently loan players wages from a few seasons ago I'm old.

I'm told from someone at Whitehaven that the outstanding Warrington debt has now been cleared; it was included in the shared gate money. So hopefully Haven has cleared other undeclared debts with a successful financial start to the season.

But not breaking the bank as it seems Town have got a good business plan, this is something haven haven't, and that should have been the first thing they should have done before the season started.

I honestly think it would be detrimental to the club joining forces with the Reds.

But a lot of Town supporters attended the Haven game as Haven supporters attended Town game, true rugby league supporters.

It just shows how the county will come out to watch good rugby league teams when they get the opportunity. Well done to everyone.

Jonty is just doing what every other coach does at this time of the year, using these games to prepare for the start of the season. A lot of new players have come into the squad; he has to find out the best combinations.

Once all expenses are paid out, including Doctor stewards, gate men and Warrington's travel expenses, the remainder is split 50/50

If you trebled the gate from the Ike game, you still wouldn't get to cover the season's costs.

Was chuffed to see Philips back yesterday, and he did well, carter will make a big difference to the team, personally think that was a good run out for the lads even tho playing in them testing conditions, thankfully the Ike game will have fetched in decent cash to help fund yesterday's game, and the Leigh game should do the same, these games are vital for cash flow at this time of the year for the clubs.

Like to see Alan included also,would be good for him to get another chance to see how he goes,

I think both teams played well in those sticky conditions; all the new Town players and trialists fitted in well, especially Dom Wear. I'm sure Jonty and the rest of the coaching team are happy with today's performance and will put them in a good stance for the Ike game.

He has gone to Sheffield hasn't he

I doubt any of the Cumbrian clubs could afford him; he is asking for big bucks.

Though he would have been having Christmas dinner at HMP,

Honestly, I don’t think the league comparison means a lot at this time of the year, plus I rate Maryport very highly after watching them several times this season.

Ye and Wath Brow have hosted games in the past against semi-pro clubs as well; that's because they are one of a few amateur clubs that have the correct facilities that have and been passed by the rfl to host Challenge Cup games.

Don't think either club has the facilities to host a Challenge Cup game.
