A nice honest and balanced report of Sunday’s game up on the LB website. I thought it was a good read but, going forward, I’d like the typos/ mistakes at the back end of the piece to be edited out.

Is this with Sunday’s starting 13 or a different line up? If the latter I think we could give them a game.

One suspects a team of Fax Machines might stand a chance of winning!

Smothers 99 who has never seen live RL has some good ideas, we've had some good ideas but it doesn't look as though the BOSG who appear to have something of the ear of Hughes & his menagerie put any ideas forward given what was missing from Sunday. Coach delusional if he thinks crowds will return to watch much of that sadly.

I’m sure as the players get used to each other and the tactics we will improve.
I’m sure we had quite a few missing so we’ll put out stronger teams. However, if our Plan B is to keep raiding Skolars, that would be a really foolish step.

Just to be clear DC, have these fax machines got Championship pedigree or are we shipping them from North London? One assumes they wouldn’t come from up North on account of the crippling cost of paper and ink in London!

I'd prefer it if we let a few of the ex Skolars back to their old club on loan if they don't shape up, and try a few of our more promising academy players in the first team squad.

They have been waiting in a container at Tilbury for entry visas direct from Wuhan. Never played league before so should give our boys a good run out. I hear they will copy a St Helens blueprint.

Agreed. Or if we are simply in the business of finding players for reserves, rather than ruining Skolars, perhaps we could get in contact with the players we signed for reserves back in the COVID hit year or some of the players we’ve leet go over the last few seasons and see if they are interested Matt Davies, Jonah Verula?

This sounds promising. Please don’t update the squad list on the website we can all play guess the player at the next game.
