He looks to have packed on the muscle since his move but I still think particularly at the start of the year he will see game time in a Trinity shirt.
Yeah, he's at that age where he's moving from being a teenager to a man and if you put the work in in the gym, you can start to pack on size, especially as he was a big lad in his teenage years anyway. It'll be interesting to see what his increase in maturity and workout sessions have done for his game. Hopefully, he'll get a few games for us but saying that we're well equipped now in the Prop department so it'll be interesting to see how it all goes this upcoming season with DR.

From that squad they have gone very heavy on forwards who will be in contention most weeks for the 17 in SL.
Byrne, Dupree, Ellis, Eseh, Hill, Leeming, Mago, Thompson, Walters from the forwards however on Friday won’t be able to get them all on the field at the same time as most of them play the same position.
Wardle is the only back who will be guaranteed a starting spot but players like Rocky, Eckersley and Douglas probably only 1 injury away and I’d think will be highly likely to be pulling on a Trinity shirt at some point this season along with Douglas and maybe Farrimond depending on how Trinity go with injuries so will be good to see how they get on too.

They may as well play for us in the second half on Friday, to see how they will fit in with our structures/systems

That is outstanding work.
North Stand it is for me then.
Will have a great view of the arguing when the allocated and none allocated mess kicks off!
On a serious note fantastic it’s sold out. I heard ticket sales were slow initially hence why the club released the squad early to generate interest and boost sales, which seems to have worked.
Really looking forward to this.
