Piggy's mate Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Did Gilmore finish the game? I appreciate the radio commentary was skewed towards Haven, but didn't hear him mentioned in the last quarter Touch Rugby W(h)inger and part-time Super Hero (Thursday mornings by appointment) BATLEY BULLDOGS RLFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the ones they did know they couldn't pronounce correctly. 'Holly' at fullback had a good game apparently.. But seriously,the commentary was quite good and generally unbiased.

I’m not been funny if people can tell who came on and off every 5 minutes they’d not see the match - subs are made very quick to what they used to be years ago... http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

Kevin Nicholas Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Kaye had to isolate on track & trace so will be available this week. Morton unavailable for personal reason we knew about before season and might be back this week but definitely week after. Logan was ok with his shoulder but has a back issue so not sure if back this week. Broughton & Buchannan had minor strains so may be back this week but if not hopefully soon. Tonks needs rest for a back issue and Brown has broken bone in hand which will be reviewed in 2 weeks. So not certain who will be back this week apart from Kaye.

Dog forever Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Some woeful tackling in the highlights. Will certainly have to find another gear against York , or I fear the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once new partnerships are formed, especially in the backs, you lose that understanding. I am just really happy with a win as I expected to struggle up there even with a first choice team out. No criticism of either of those players by the way, it just takes some developing once you first come into the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill H Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 It was interesting to look at the first try. Bowman looks to have seen the danger and is tracking across when Walshaw pushes a Haven player straight at him. I don't think that Bowman would have made it in such heavy traffic but he was a yard or two in front of Hooley at that stage. The first time that I watched it I thought that the Haven player had cynically taken Bowman out, but not so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah he last played for us there but has been keeping match fit for hunslet we have a 2 massive weeks coming up if we get numbers right again Craig has some selection headaches if we get Buchanan back I’d go Walshaw in the 2nd row with bowman at 13... http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

phildog Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 Who was in the no number shirt? Re tackling, we were our usual bunched up, outnumbered selves for their first try, it seems to be a regular thing that we can't sort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re tackling, we were our usual bunched up, outnumbered selves for their first try, it seems to be a regular thing that we can't sort. So bad in fact that we've only won 6 games from 8. I say Linners out! we were far more organised and structured before the bounder took over from Diskin "you never win a game unless you beat the guy in front of you.

phildog Posted June 15, 2021 Share Posted June 15, 2021 You must admit that it's not the first time we've had 2 or 3 men bunching in on the centre 10 yards in. Maybe it's a case of poor player choice and something that CL picks out in team meetings. Never said it was ALL his fault!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
