crashmon Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 at least the scottish people will get to see their team play in Scotland prior to the world cup. I don't think they will care much who the players are, if they beat England that is all that will matter Shame the welsh won't get to see there team play at home before the world cup, but will have to travel to England,I doubt many welsh fans will come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most scots could not name any RL player, that is how little the game is known about up there. So you could fill the team with players all called singh or patel, and as long as they are in a scottish kit playing england they will get supported. Football and Union I would agree with you but on League none of the scottish fans would know any of the players anyway even if they all were descended from William Wallace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jughead Posted August 26, 2022 Author Share Posted August 26, 2022 Does anyone think the majority of English people care about some northerners and a couple of Aussies calling themselves “England” playing games in the North of England in a sport they probably don’t recognise? 2 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StandOffHalf Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) Big news here is surely the inclusion of Mikey Lewis and KPP for the Knights. This surely means that both will miss out on the World Cup. Harry Smith and Jackson Hastings' hopes just got a bit of a lift IMO.

Lewis at least hasn’t played for a few weeks would make sense to get anyone in that position a few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I read it is that those included in this Knights squad are on the outer and not really forefront in Wane's thoughts for the WC - Bateman very obviously excepted.

Some good players there. Harvie Hill is an interesting selection with only 1 SL game under his belt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t say I know much about him, do you? The squad shows the striking lack of talent in outside backs currently in our game sadly. That Liam Tindall gets a place………..the bloke can’t defend for toffee and predominately runs sideways. I know there’s a few missing such as Wrench and Murphy but still the well is very dry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trojan Horse Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) I was very surprised Corey Hall isn’t in the 21. He’s been excellent in his games this season for trinity along with Murphy. Both cracking young players.

I think the omission of Murphy from this squad means it's pretty likely that Wane has included him in the 24-man World Cup squad. I feel at the moment that his wingers might be Makinson, Hall, Young, Marshall and Murphy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been excellent this year in attack but most surprising is his defence seems strong too. he’s had a better breakthrough season than TJ which is no mean feat. He probably won’t play but if he’s part of the set up that would be great for him. He did pick up some sort of leg injury in last game of season though he seemed to play through it. Worst time with him getting a call up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's fit, I think there's a fair chance that he makes the main squad. He'd go well against Greece and France. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because yesterday, the YouTube link started counting down to 18:15 on the 29th. If you look at the white text at the bottom of the YT link I posted, it still shows that date and time. Then, when the countdown finished, nothing happened. I assume someone messed up the streaming information, so let's hope the link works tomorrow. 1 "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.
