Cresta said there's a surprise package for tomorrow that has been training. I hope it's not Liam Harrison, as fantastic as he was for us he's now 40 and been out the game for a few years 

[Clarkey]

Maybe Cresta is put his boots on, or Steve??

[RLDB]

Cresta must be talking about AN Other that’s in the squad. Hopefully it’s a hooker.

Liam Harrison !! . Game needs calling off pitch will not recover

I agree too wet

It’s a shame and obviously people will want the fix of rugby

Dan's calling in the Army...

 

Well done Dan Toal, hats off to you mate, always put your body on the line.

 

Thanks mate enjoyed watching you smash a few & never give an inch away.

 

Great service to Barrow RL

Yeah I'd like to know as well.

Also thought Max Moore-Anderson had a great game as well

He's called Mike Ogunwale. Cresta mentioned he is a serving soldier, and he is in talks to sign, so watch this space.

Mike Ogunwale played for Newcastle last year having previously played in the Army. 

Newcastle disbanded end of 2023 season, but are now BACK in League 1 for 2024 season under new management.

He must be on-trial with the Raiders. He looks promising.

Expected a little more from James Greenwood and Max Clarke, but very early days. Brett Carter played well.

Despite the score-line, thought the young local lads played very well, especially tackling, considering it's probably the first time they've been together as a team.

Was hoping another might of been Jacques ONiell.  Oh well

Probably not played in nearly 3 months and playing in new systems to them, what did you expect?!

[Clarkey]

Don't forget it was only a friendly against amateurs would you really want them running 100% when we are playing Rochdale next week?

Thought Clarke did ok tbh, remember he's hardly played any first team games in this country(mainly in France and academy/reserve level). I seen enough to suggest that with continued hard work he can play a role within the squad
