dont know when cudjoe will be back, maybe sometime end of feb.
grix wont play full back. mcintosh will stay there. we still have options for the wing, for me id put murphy back there, he can bring the ball back strong like jerry

certainly gets my vote!!
baffled with woolford saying jake wardle will kick... will see if he has changed his mind after lastnight

Grix isn't registered so won't play, Jake will be 1st choice kicker if he's fit for round 1 with Gasky backup and Gasky and Frawls as the general play kickers with hookers as backup

every one else seemed to have a go that day! or maybe he had another niggle and didnt want to risk it
No, I would expect the coaches to use that game how it was intended, to try stuff out since the outcome wasn’t important.
All this talk about shifting players around just baffles me. Folk moan if youngsters don’t get a game, then talk about switching someone who has bulked up and trained as a second row to go in the wing instead Trust the young players to play. If Murphy is switched that’s non first choice players playing in two positions instead of just one.

well will be interesting to see who takes the goal kicks v salford
come the end of the season id have a bet gaskell will kick more goals than jake wardle
innes senior to play 12 games straight?? thats a huge ask for a youngster, even woolford says that its hard to do that, his brother louis wasnt up to the task lastnight at wakefield up against johnstone... salford will be targeting that wing like mad next friday, least they have time to prepare for it

considering we only went down by 4 points whilst playing with 12 men for 20 minutes it wasnt that bad!
gaskell outshone frawley again, amazing what a player can so when hes given confidence and allowed to play which he could do with brough about
had to laugh when brough put that forward pass across to johnstone, brough has never had that pass in his game! he still has the kicking game though... see how they didnt use him for goal kicks!!!! not surprised with his record past few years but hampshire no better.
big blow losing mcgillvary now for a period of time, i think we should stick murphy back to the wing, hes mr consistent and will do the job well. its a concern now as you could see without mcgillvary on the wing we were exposed, seniors are decent prospects but will be targeted and youngsters cant play week on week out at top level.
mcintosh looks good coming into the line and done ok at full back in the two warm up games.
uate is a real character, can see that on the field !
Fair doos you gave it a good shot but let’s be honest you were only four points down because Hampshire couldn’t hit a barn door on the night and your guy was inspired. You were beaten by two tries and that’s the stat that counts. Also your last one was on the 79th minute.

To be fair to the young lad there are not many wingers in SL that TJ would not do that to.
Thought you guys looked good in spells, lacked a bit of go forward in certain periods of the game, Seb seemed to liven you up when he came on, put on some good plays to open us up near our line don`t think you will struggle this season.
