phildog Posted October 21, 2019 Share Posted October 21, 2019 Unless Tubbs is a far better coach than he's given credit for J don't such many miles in the Zak McComb story, didn't make much of his chance at The Mount so that's not great news for anybody else....

Yes but players develop and improve. He was very young when he was with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him and Brad Hey have learnt in league 1 it just shows how badly the A team has been missed as they both were behind 2 decent centres in the past at batley in 2015 and 2016 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

phildog Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Personally KTF I was a bit upset when Hey didn't get any sort of crack at The Mount, same said of Trae O'Sullivan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 Have we stopped the 20:20 announcements? Earlier today it was announced that Dewsbury lad, James Thornton, ex Hemel, Fev and Sheffield, has signed a one year deal. Legs, Dews, Legs.

Wakefield Ram Posted October 22, 2019 Author Share Posted October 22, 2019 Looks a decent side, big pack, just need Finn and Sykes to stay fit and think we will be okay. 1 Joe Martin 2 Andy Gabriel 3 Jason Walton 4 Adam Ryder 5 6 Paul Sykes 7 Liam Finn 8 Tom Garratt 9. Dom Speakman 10 Martyn Reilly 11 Chris Annakin 12 Michael Knowles 13 Sonny Esslemont 14 Sam Day 15 Jon Magrin 16 Luke Nelmes 17 Fraser Morris 18 Sam Moorhouse 19 James Thornton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted October 22, 2019 Share Posted October 22, 2019 WR, no.15 is Jon Magrin and you should add James Thornton, as I indicated above : https://dewsburyrams.co.uk/2019/10/20/thornton-joins-rams/ Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 If we are running a team of 24/25 players (as rumour would have it) then it looks like we only have around half a dozen more to announce. These are the players not already announced who I reckon will leave the club: Alex Brown Nyle Flynn Lewis Heckford Daniel Igbinedion Danny King Liam Mackay Jack Ray Toby Richardson Jode Sheriffe Jacob Thomas Robbie Ward Harvey Whiteley My predictions are not that brilliant; I’ve never won the lottery (I have the half-time draw once though), so I probably will be wrong on some.

Batley Bob Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 Mmmm Nyle Flyn , according to this , We at Batley have him on trial for pre season https://www.thepressnews.co.uk/sportsnews/lingard-excited-by-capture-of-x-factor-dean Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

myview Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 I would be sorry to see Toby Richardson depart. When he joined us from Dewsbury Moor near to the end of NEil Kelly's period he was one of our best forwards. He has not had many chances this season to show what he can do. We should keep him ! Jacob Thomas and Lewis Heckford should also be given more time to develop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the old nine ole Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 Davey Dixon!!!!!! ..... says he's a flying winger!!! Bet he isn't as fast or as strong as Rob Worrincy!! ... anyone know anything about him? .... I was hoping for championship proved winger .... I'd have taken Dalton's Grant back! Still Gabriel turned out OK ...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still Gabriel turned out OK ...... I liked Worrincey too but I heard that his job with the police is making it difficult to get to training regularly. This might be why he hasn't signed with us but I don't know for sure. It is difficult to judge players from L1 until they get their chance to perform in the Championship. He is young and big, so let's hope that he is also quick and knows how to defend. I believe that Grant values himself at a level that we wouldn't choose to pay.

Hope he proves me wrong as he's a very nice lad with a great attitude but no where near the level of Gabriel and Ryder, two players I'd love to see back one day.

Wakefield Ram Posted October 25, 2019 Author Share Posted October 25, 2019 Rob Worrincy could score tries but his inconsistent handling and defence outweighed the tries. Shame as he is a real entertainer but he could score a 100m try as easy as drop the ball over the line and gift a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blind side johnny Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 I note that it is Liam Finn's 36th birthday next weekend. At some point next season we look likely to have a half back pairing with a combined age of 75. I assume that this will be a first for Dewsbury but will it be a first for the sport as a whole?

Not sure it would be a first for Dewsbury; how old were Johnny Bullock and Alvin Newall? They always looked old to me. Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
