shrewsbury roughyed Posted May 29, 2024 Posted May 29, 2024 Crusaders not going as well this season so far. Lost by 1 point to Hornets; won and lost one to Midlands. Didn’t get hammered by Keighley. We should certainly win (please God) but no room for complacency as the Boundary Park play-off debacle last season proved. Surely time for Mackenzie to get a run out - and please some variety from the bench. 5pm kick off remember. 1

Surely time for Mackenzie to get a run out - and please some variety from the bench. 5pm kick off remember. Don't think Mackenzie is fit yet (not even in full training with the squad). Expect Pat Moran to be back and possibly O'Keefe (more likely the next game). With Lawton and Wardle out and others nursing injuries from Keighley, the squad announcement could be interesting. It will also be interesting to see what Long does with halfback / fullback positions. This won't be easy. Edited May 30, 2024 by Roughyed Rats 1
Roughyed Rats Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 Squad announced. No Jordan Turner, Wardle or Lawton. On a positive note, good to have O’Keefe, Moran and Mo back. Centre, halfback and fullback selection will be interesting.
Bedford Roughyed Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on!
m brooksy Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 PLT, Mo, O 'Keefe, Johnson/Morgan, Tyrer, Craven, Astley, Kopzcak, Wildie, Farnworth, Gallagher, Taylor, J Chapelhow. subs: Paga, T Chapelhow, Hirst, Moran. We're definitely light at centre and back row with our injuries but I think this looks a much better balanced team than last weeks. 1

Bert Street Posted May 30, 2024 Posted May 30, 2024 Think we might need to use the loan market judiciously in the near future.

I'd be surprised if he leaves Ellis out - Astley on the bench for me.

ChampagneCharlieReturns Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 What a win 24-25 huge comeback that when questions were being asked of us 2 1
shrewsbury roughyed Posted June 1, 2024 Author Posted June 1, 2024 Squeaky bum time, that. Good to win it; worrying that it was so close. Work to be done - lots of it.
RoughyedsFan_merged Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 Some major questions need to be asked of Long at this point. Yes, you can use the injuries excuse, but we have a squad Crusaders could only dream of and a starting 13 that should have been far too good out there today. You can’t ignore the worrying patterns we’ve seen in a lot of games this season, slow starts, poor discipline, poor defence. We are looking more and more like a team just thrown on to the pitch with better players expected to go and win rather than having any real plan or structure. 4
winedrinkerme Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 A good win got the result under pressure it will help in the long run well done lads 1
Happyed Posted June 1, 2024 Posted June 1, 2024 What a finish! Very unstructured towards the end but have to say Wildie in the halves and Aldridge at hooker totally changed the game. as others say, lots to do but well done longy for changing it up when the game looked lost 3

Some of those were clearly not 100% fit. We lost Kian Morgan after 7 minutes. Ted Chaplehow 18th man, could hardly walk let alone play. Edited June 1, 2024 by sheddingswasus 2

Barely played against Keighley last week. Then today played 2 minutes before half time and 15 minutes after excluding his 10 minutes in the sin bin! He must be playing on one leg! 1
