FearNothing Posted June 29 Share Posted June 29 No room for slip-ups for 2-5 in the table, hunslet and cougars for big wins to help PTS diff, hopefully Cru will get back to winning ways and post a half decent score over skolars. Swinton Donny pick of the round, could go either way. cru....Cru.....CRUSADERS!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However just seem Midlands have 4 on loan/dr from Castleford, so think Midlands have a very good chance of winning now. (I still think loan/dr is abhorrent and a travesty to the true league table) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having a go at Midlands specifically as it seems to be rife at quite a few teams atm. I don’t have a favourite L1 team, but tend to catch about 10 L1 games a season depending on where i’m travelling for work that week. Would much rather all teams played their own squad players to get a really true idea of the ability of each club. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tiffers Posted July 2 Share Posted July 2 Cracking game today at the Mem. Cornwall clearly up on confidence and matched Hunslet for approx 65-70mins of the game. Fair play to Hunslet, the score was a pretty fair reflection of the game. Cornwall continue to improve and will definitely roll another couple of wins this year if they keep going as they are. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would much rather all teams played their own squad players to get a really true idea of the ability of each club. I've been to plenty of games where a Coventry Bears side topped up by fringe squad members was smashed by an opposition team reinforced by DR/loans from Championship clubs. It is painful to watch and detrimental to club development. Players get injuries and suspensions and there is a limit to how large a squad can be seriously maintained by clubs at this level. This is particularly difficult for clubs struggling for funds and outside of the general pool of talent in the North. Success for the Hurricanes and the linking up with a wider network of developing clubs in the Midlands will help with this though I reckon. Will hopefully mean we can retain our better players for longer as the Hurricanes develop into the more attractive option at the start of a new season. As MrC and I said though, we don't disagree with you as such, it's just that we'd rather head to Portway this afternoon believing we have a chance of beating Rochdale because we have a team made up of good quality players playing in their preferred positions. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That does not necessarily follow at League 1 level and the WWR experience - admitedly not the best of role models - says that each season you end up re-booting as the previous season successes earn better deals elsewhere and the previous season failures are jettisoned.

True, that's the hardest thing for clubs in the bottom half. I was thinking that yesterday while watching Cornwall. They have at least 3 players in there that could be playing at a higher level and they may well get offers for them at the end of the season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps to a degree but Cornwall look like they are being ran way more professionally than WWR and the budget looks to be higher also. I suspect averaging 1000 at the foot of table shows the backers it has legs and also players that they will be paid on time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
