See that John is leaving the club shortly. What a job this guy has done here; every bit as important as any of the coaches he has worked with, and has been just as responsible for some of the results we've had. His efforts with all the players who have been here during his time have seen fitness and concentration levels go through the roof. Whoever takes his job on has enormous shoes to fill. Hope the board recognises him, life membership is a minimum!!

John has been a key figure in our transformation from an average squad when he came on board to a squad that has been conditioned to go toe to toe with full time opponents in both SL and Championship games, on an equal level of fitness and strength. I do hope we continue to run with his methods and conditioning programmes, as they are crucial to our competitive edge. Good luck John, you have been a true Bulldog, and contributed much to our development as a Club within the past decade.

Got to say,John Heaton is a massive loss. Didn't he once leave before to go to Castleford?

Yes he did Graham, and what a difference it made when he did, our usual fitness levels dipped massively, but when he came back it made it clear he was badly missed as he alone with his conditioning methods turned the Dogs around, to me a massive massive loss.

I agree steve , but on the plus side , he has got all the pre season fitness sorted , which is a big part of it 

Just worries me after last time he left bob, the impact it had on the team, just hope the coach and staff get a very decent replacement because they are big big boots to fill mate.

Thinking of John, remember when we actually had a club website he used to do a piece keeping us up to date with injuries and players' fitness regimes. There have been a few players in pre-season who have appeared then not been seen again, does anyone know the injury list? Bravo picked up a training injury, Smeaton had an op around shirt night, any other info on such as JC who hasn't been seen since Boxing Day, Brad Day....

Hello phildog,

If you go to my player stats for 2018 that I publish yesterday all the players in red are injured, I can't say what the injuries are, but I'm sure the Paul Harrison or Matt Diskin would let you know.

If I get the chance to go up to the club tomorrow I will ask.

Cheers Roger.
