Just got back in, not the greatest game in some senses that I've ever seen but credit the 17 and coaching staff with a great result. Griffin & Thompson did a great job in the conditions and all things considered, worryingly left yards of space on the wing but covered it well as if that was the plan. Thought Connor did well at FB only real mistake was the ball he spilt towards the end of 1st half. Sneyd controlled the 2nd half brilliantly and make a cracking tackle on Connor with 2 mins to go to stop him and tell him to slow down. Awful conditions and a reshuffled team hampered any chance of a decent game but the 17 did a great job.
I really enjoy long walks especially when they are taken by people I don't like!

Possible gives us the chance to rest a couple next week, if possible id rest our 3 most important players in Kelly, Houghton and Ellis next Friday
As Rovers fans keep telling Kelly doesn't like it when the doing gets tough, that's why he put his hand up to play despite being injured.
Don't know what went on at rovers but it was quite clear they wasn't a team fighting for each other last year. Kelly may well of just had enough of feeling who was trying everything at times whilst some of the others were stealing a living. This year he's at a club full of players fighting for a place week in week out. The kr fans I speak to have said for a long time they don't man manage a lot of players correctly.

Didn't he arrive with it in a sling too?
Guessing we'll have Bowden back (says he's ready to return on social media), Fonua (wife's had the baby), hopefully Talanoa recovered from illness. So that leaves Mini (Radford said he could have played at a push?) and Shaul. Reckon Connor, Griffin and Michaels will all play anyway.
