RLDB Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Definitely need a win in this one. Noticed Archer is in the 21, hope he’s in the halves with Sammut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue forever Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 Some of the senior players have to show up and put in a performance. Some of the usually reliable players have started the season off poorly. Time to see what we're made of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider91 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 My side for Swinton; Cresswell, bulman Corkill Shaw Toal Archer Sammutt Gillam Johnston iaria Stack Langtree Wells Burke, emeslie, Evans, Saunders Think we need to change it up Worthington has looked well off it not sure if he is fit. carter had a poor start to the season his rotation of the bench hasn't worked. Toal lucky to keep his place for me after 2 iffy games but would give him another go. Broadbent, Worthington, carter & Hopkins left out for me. Don't think cresta will see it like this I expect Worthington to definitely be involved hope he proves me wrong and has a big game! No wood or Mossop looks like Saunders will get a run who I've my defensive reservations about. Is a worry if both wood and Mossop out for a period of time, I'd be looking for a 9 on loan.

Bring back GB Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Same side as last week apart from Saunders for Wood. Would have liked to have seen Corkill and Archer selected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarc Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 8 points ahead with a man advantage going into the last 10 and we’ve lost it. Twice going into touch when in a great field position. Game management non existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our main issue is our lack of pace in centres and fullback. Teams are absolutely jamming us out wide stifling our halves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we have bigger problems than that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Swinton keep on surprising something has to give in this division i.e. a team who was tipped to stay up pre-season could well go down. Who is your money on?

Toal and Cresswell are reasonably quick. I think we have bigger problems than that. Shaw isn't rapid. It's more having backs who can't make breaks. All 3 teams have used the same formula to beat us. All used the same game plan to take Sammut out of the game. The isn't saying they aren't good players just to clarify. It's just a bit of an issue we have. We can get round it with game plan but I think teams are defending like we can't go round them forcing us down the middle with no space. We should have won today regardless of their game plan but we played daft last 10 minutes. Edited February 19, 2023 by RSN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's next to no pace in the back line 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

morty Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Sammut doesn't look happy or particularly interested ... I think he was shocked nobody came in for him after that tweet about availabilty late last year and signed back on as a last resort Lee Morton Raiders have risen from the ashes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring back GB Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 What is the point of signing these new players if they never get selected even when the side desperately needs some changes ??? The likes of Archer and Corkill should have been playing yesterday and young Broady looked great in pre-season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corkhill for Shaw and lose the kicking ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
