One day in a land far beyond the here and now ... he'll score a try.
We'll all be long gone by then......

FFS it's an athlete's game nowadays ... the days of the lard infested pie muncher is a distant memory, or at least should be. :shock:

TM picks the team using his skill and knowledge and it seems to be working.He has access to the tackle counts and ball carries etc of all the players available and if JB is selected I think it must be on merit.
However if you feel so strongly about JB I am sure he would be happy to speake to you about it after the game. :wink:

Have we got an 18th man & kicking tee :D


It would seem that Dom Dee wasn't available yesterday due to commitments known about when he signed.

Jamie Bovill has the best success rate at the club at the moment in terms of games won...he's the lucky mascot!

Theres a report in the Yorksire Post today claiming the Dons benefitted from a series of forunate decisions. Must have been written by a Welshie.

Said it before and I'll say it again...we must be the luckiest team in existence to get to 2nd in the league based solely on rub of the green

Similarly he will miss the Keighley game. :(
JB's place is booked again then. :wink:

Indeed!
But Miller himself said we got exactly that yesterday.
We didn't get it vs Keighley in the second half and so as you intimate it evens up.

Pressure creates its own luck, and credit to the Dons.
Teams who can pressure the opposition when the opposition has the ball will come out top in most even games.

He needs to come out holding a proper forward's hand then. :wink:
He played against Swinton ... we lost. :)

Yeah, I think Miller probably does, that's his job.
I would prefer an athlete personally, one who scores tries or creates them, not just a battering ram.
As for the last point, he'd have to catch me first and even at my age he might be struggling. :wink:

If he'd just flop over for at least one try every once in a while, he'd be fine by me.
How many has he got for us by the way ... any statos out there?
