sentoffagain2 Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 Jacks will not be with us next season but Ford has signed for another season so we will have to make the best of it.My observations are we need a number 7 who will take on the line with a bit of pace.Ford at 6 can give the outside backs good early ball if we do not persist in 4 drives down the middle.Jacks lack of pace showed when he intercepted and only got 30m before being tackled.Chizzy would have been under the sticks and that may have changed the game.Ford and Jacks are both ball handlers so we miss out on more direct thrust into the line.

Is that based on inside information or just rumour/guess, as we haven't announced anything about Jacks yet I don't think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Squidward Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 He's a young player who has improved a lot. I wonder if his decision to move to Wakey might have been partly to do with his omission yesterday? This is a blow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirmonds pouch Posted September 26 Share Posted September 26 I'm guessing with Applegarth strong knowledge of the local game he knows the lad quite well. I'll be honest it's the kind of signings I like and Trinity tend to do well from. I'm sure you'd prefer he wasn't going but you can't blame him if correct. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been decent but would need to improve loads to be of SL quality. However, its possible and I wish the lad well at Trin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes an no S if someone is a natural then cuthbo can help him hone his skill if not do it you enough times in training players with a bit of nouse will pick up a skill they thought they never had not talking about being as good as cuthbo more knowing when and where to do it instead of throwing the ball back willy nilly 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still require strong support play for it to be effective. Not right struck seeing the props offloading. They are there to drive the ball in and make yards IMO.

The Phantom Horseman Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 So the Championship season is over and we can now look forward to 2023 in the knowledge that Leigh are out of the way. Some stiff tasks still await next year, obviously. Toulouse are hard to assess at the moment as they are clearly losing quite a few players but it will be surprising if they aren't favourites, or very close to it, to go straight back up, whilst Batley, Halifax and one or two others will be fancying their chances too. It's possible that most of those who haven't been announced as re-signing by now will be leaving the club, though both Bussey and Lockwood were only announced as having re-signed in November last year. So there may still be negotiations ongoing, and players and officials may have gone on holiday precluding any announcements anyway. As it stands, we're a lot further on in terms of numbers than we have been at this time of year in some seasons recently, and of course we have a new head coach to find. A good time to draw a line through this season and look forward to next year. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
