Ferryfevforever Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Interesting. Stronger in forwards. Edge the backs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Phantom Horseman Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Not sure how reliable this is but we can see 19 of the 21- man squad on the RFL match centre and notable names missing are Chisholm, Leilua and Ferres. Trout is the last- named though and can only think of Wildie after him in the alphabet. So guess we need to await the club announcement to be sure.

YES if alphabetically it's wildie which leaves us with a C D F L or M for number 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joey and Wildie are the extra 2 I'm sure I'll think of something funny to say soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can think of 5 players I would bring in to what is likely to be the starting backline (and that doesn't include Helliwell) before even considering DR. A very sad state of affairs if that happens in the first game with no injuries as yet..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardypaul Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Looking at yesterday’s reports there seemed to be a lot of sin bins. Think that discipline is going to be important tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QUITE possible PH looking at the 28 man squad 7 backs 5 halves and 14 forwards I think unless we are really unlucky with injuries or get a boat load of covid DR could be a non starter 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Phantom Horseman Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Thought that was pretty convincing, and especially pleasing how much we dominated their pack despite Kopczak being out and Jesse's very early injury. They struggled in yardage throughout whilst we rolled upfield with regularity. To be honest I thought we were value for the winning margin and then some. Thought Bussey was fantastic and think he played for an hour before coming off. He does so many things well, especially those repeated standing play the balls that create time and space for the next play. The Jesse injury is another huge blow though, that's two of our big forwards likely to be missing for a few weeks. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbaldnmad Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 For me, I thought we were sometimes guilty of trying to throw it out wide too early. I thought we bombed a few so it could have been a bit more convincing. Plenty to come in so hopefully we wont miss JSL and Koppy too much. Next week is a big big game, would have preferred a couple of weeks to get up to speed, but it's the same for both teams. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgeb1 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Well done rovers , good solid performance , totally outclassed a tired looking York side who will have to lick their wounds and go again , be very interested to see you play Leigh next Mon feet up with a beer and no pressure , enjoy your night. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeymagic22 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 Thought it was a decent start, although better will he needed to beat Leigh and the better teams. I was impressed with Wildie and Pickersgill, look good signings, and Lockwood and Bussey great in the pack. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
