Leyland in for his 2nd

44-4 Thewlis 3 from 3 with the kicks

Time to let Leyland have a go at kicking since there's no points difference to benefit from.

44-4 full time. Scruffy at times but a long way to go.

Disappointed in this place. I thought we would have had one "You wouldn't see Wigan conceding against a lower league team" comment by now.

Saving it for if and when we concede to Saints

Great day out, felt like a blast from the past... And grabbed a photo with Big Sam at the end. Just got home, time to thaw my toes!

Thoroughly enjoyed the "blast from the past" I'm not sure what the take aways are for us but I agree with karetaker that either Thewlis or Leyland should've been kicking and all the younger forwards rotated well although to be fair the difference in size and conditioning was self evident.

What I would say is that Cumbria needs to be supported or at least not forgotten about in RL. There's was plenty on and decent chat with the locals

I think it’s forward thinking to put reserve kickers in a game environment by practice rather than just Leyland.
Use the game for the benefits an easy tie gives us.

Well you certainly do use Ratchford, sorry Smiffy, as you don't learn anything BTW Ratchford played well enough tackled well but ran out of bit of steam towards the end, understandably so, a lot of minutes on a heavy pitch.

Just seen the tries via our website.
The pitch reminded me of times gone by ... looked heavy which of course is a great leveller. The radio commentary I listened to didn't flag it up as much as they might have done.
