jroyales Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Looking forward to the first real game of the season. Let's hope we get back last week's missing players and better the Hairnets 46 - 6 against them. Is this the last game in Whittle's suspension?

Roughyed Rats Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Big result coming in for us this weekend. I firmly believe it will lay down a real marker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t bring back any of the lads that were missing unless they are 100% fit, on yesterdays showing we should have enough to beat London with that squad. Need keep the likes of Morgan and Wilkinson fit for the big games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shrewsbury roughyed Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Thinking back to this time last year - we’d just been Lock Laned and the best we could seemingly hope for was to be at the top of the bottom group in this division ie the Midlands, London etc. The fact that we actually made the play offs was no mean feat given that beginning. This time, hopefully, we have a much more solid foundation and we can focus our aim on being in the mix at the top end right from the start. Injuries and suspensions may well hit us hard , but I’m genuinely more optimistic at the start of this season than last. Come on you Yeds. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroyales Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 My concern is the number of games being played this season i.e. 16. If they lose a couple then the heat is really on. We have to win ALL of our eight home games and hopefully beat one off the stronger teams. I'm not counting the Hairnets in that category - it should be an easy four pointer! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jroyales Posted February 28, 2023 Author Share Posted February 28, 2023 It would be great if we both went up. I wonder what the bookies odds would be on that one. Can but dream - i'd be happy if one of us gets up. I feel Dewsbury, Doncaster and Hunslet will spoil the party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroyales Posted March 2, 2023 Author Share Posted March 2, 2023 Considering how few games we have and the strong possibility that no team will really dominate the season, it could come down to points difference. With this in mind, just winning isn't an option we have to score as many points as we can starting with this Sunday. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jroyales Posted March 3, 2023 Author Share Posted March 3, 2023 Three days to go to what could be the most important season the club faces and it being the first game of the season and there have only been NINE comments. Four of them are mine and one from an Hairnet's fan! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think you can go into any game thinking about points difference, let’s just make sure we win after last season debacle. Amazing to see Morgan and Wilkinson added to the squad, let’s hope they are fully fit and not being rushed back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterYed Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 Also we must sign two prop forwards if we are to compete at the top tier of this division, we are still way short in that department. Go and get Moi Moi and another experienced prop , been there and done it middle unit players to take this squad to the next level 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How weird? i heard that the dual reg guys were playing the first 20 minutes for us, the second 20 minutes for them, then getting recalled at half time as Wigan's C team had an unopposed training session against St Pats Under 11s. Only in rugby league.... 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
