Curly perm

I’m sure I saw that Broadbent was initially announced by Hull KR this morning as having signed a deal until 2027 before it was amended to a season-long loan. Is Opacic’s contract up at the end of the season by any chance?

Yep, fully agree. Batley looked to be in the driving seat at 14-12 up early in the second half, going downhill…but an increase in intensity and Uele dragging four defenders over with him for the try was a game-changer.

IMG changes, lack of incentive to invest, injuries, promoted from 5th…it was going to happen. Might have a chance against Hull FC but doesn’t seem any point watching any of their other games.

Coming back overweight, I heard! He’d be rubbish skinny. Like Samson with his curly perm.

Cas remind me of Wakey at the start of last season. Short bursts of a decent performance, but can’t keep it up….and attack not firing.

Olpherts to Wakey until the end of the season

I’m enjoying SL+ and am watching about 3 games each week. As others have said, commentary has improved with Woods, Wilson etc. The app is working great with AirPlay, all good. Would be great to get the catch up games out a bit quicker going forward e.g. if I miss a 3pm kick off, I’d like to be able to watch it at, say, 8pm. At the moment, you generally have to wait until the next day which is harder to avoid the score.

The grip socks are standard (ankle) sports socks. The sleeves make them look like normal long socks. I thought players had to wear some kind of long socks for some reason as part of the kit…RFL rules or something - so that’s why they wear the sleeves as well. Only my assumption though

They’re not but neither are some of the others, as shown today. Hopefully this gives them a bit of belief to show they can compete with at least a couple of sides this year.

London trying to force it, need to cool their boots

Wakey’s defence was good and Barrow had to think out of the box - their kicking game was great and put us on the back foot quite a bit. Too many mistakes from Wakefield. A bit clunky and sloppy, going without the ball a couple of times and too many drops, but we needed a tougher test, got one and won by four tries. Great to see Harvey Smith showing what he can do. Great prospect at dummy half. Enjoying seeing some of the younger players getting a chance.

Fair play to London, they stuck with it. They’ll be happy there’s a video ref at every game!

I think it was announced during the game at around 1300

He’s competitive - it’s great to see, we need characters like that

Sorry if it’s already been covered, but does anyone know who the commentary team will be on superleague+ or are we still waiting for that to come out?
