Sounds desperate.

Only named a 20 man squad for Barrow so maybe.  Official Club announcement at 7pm tonight so maybe a 21st man incoming?

Yeah, I thought Wakey would be confident in their squad v Barrow but doesn’t look that way when the withdraw a young international.

Harvey Smith has withdrawn from the England squad and has now been named in Wakefield's squad to face Barrow this weekend.

I expect he would rather have played for Trinity to try push his way into the team. 
 

He’s already done it all at academy level I think with England and other rep games anyway.  
 

Looking forward to seeing him at Barrow tomorrow.

I dropped my mum off at Carcassonne airport this afternoon. And my word a RL love in!

Bumped into Justine Sangaré on his way back to the UK (he's having a great time at Leeds by the way, still coming to terms with the accent though), my word, he's a big lad now! Gone from a podgy youngster to a beast of a man!

Who should walk in? Rémy Casty and the U19s on the way to the match tomorrow. Rather funny watching the skinny youngsters next to the man mountain. He was that small...probably...at one time.

The french 19s team isn't the tallest I think the two halves for the game are 5 foot 2 the hooker is 5 foot 4 as is the no 14 utility. The lock is about 5 foot 4 too.

Pretty poor promotion of this game, can anyone confirm that it is on YouTube ?

 

Live now, glad to hear audio issues are still around.

I reckon france will tire, their season finishes a month ago for the players from catalan and almost 2 months for some, good start from them though.

France playing unreal but England have tried to score every tackle, a truly awful performance.

They don’t look well coached.

England get within a converted try, commentary says there are 4 minutes left.

Reckon France can blow this easily enough.

And then there's the England try.

Hooter sounds ... France scored at the death to lead 40-37. Kick to come but the game is France's.
