So away to Sheffield. Despite the scoreline for them tonight against Bradford they always looked to be on the back foot. The way we have played in the last 2 home games I can't see us getting a result up there. Players look like they just want season done.

We rarely perform well at PL so maybe away to Sheffield will be beneficial.

I'm probably happiest with them out of everyone tbh. Yes there's a fair bit to fix up on our end, however we have generally travelled well this season and our form in the Challenge/1895 Cup suggests we understand how to manage games of knock-out rugby. I think playing away from PL and any home induced pressures can only be a good thing.

A lot can change in the space of a few weeks, but the Eagles were dreadful when we played them recently and we dominated. Haven't seen any of last nights game, however from what you say, it sounds as though they weren't that great. Hopefully add Lewis and Alex back into the mix and we have every reason to be confident in my opinion.

It’s a one off game we should be able to win - but we’ve got to play much better than our last two games, and for the whole 80 minutes!

Just as a general thought, I never had us down as being remotely playoff contenders at the start of this season, all I really hoped for was an improvement on last.
What a difference a year makes ( and a couple of quality signings from the French league!) :lol:

It's not rocket science, better players and coaches will tend to get better results. Just imagine if we'd had those from the start of the season (and also had some pre season games).






Gus Mackay we salute you!!

Yeah this is absolutely it. I thought we would be stronger this year compared to last, but we all know how low that bar was!

Been a tough few years following the club, so we should absolutely be making the most of the current good form. Who knows what will happen over the next few weeks, I'm just going to enjoy the journey and whatever will be will be.

In all seriousness I hope it does well. Have I missed where it says where it goes from and the time. LBSA site were sounding the idea out for a 9am from Richmond, I hope they aren’t competing against each other.
