The resilience of the club is still there which is the most pleasing aspect. They just grind it out. Had a sneaky feeling Handley might pop up with the try.

Though briscoe had another good game was interesting to see hall with kicks.

Thought walker went well unlucky for Golding but I just think walker has more in attack although the battle should bring both of them on. Also at their age playing 20 games a season each is ok.


All things considered its been a positive start to the season. Hopefully we start to get a few bodies back soon

When Walters ran it up at the end and dropped it. He had one job just to take it in and keep hold and he couldn't do that. Luckily, they needed 2 tries at that point.

Think it's all been said on the performance - great gutsy win.
Regarding child and scrums, 3/4 times saints only put 5 in the scrum and child stops the scrum half feeding the ball and calls for another player to pack down. Other teams do the same. It's not junior rugby, for mine, ref should let scrum half feed the scrum and then penalise the team packing 5 down.

Certainly one of our better league wins in recent years. Good to see Smith and Oledski playing in a big game and doing well. As for Walters, I just don't rate him, but as others say, he's about 7th/8th choice so it doesn't matter much when everyone's fit.

Alex Walmsley ruled out long term with a fractured bone in his neck. Big loss for them.

It would be a yes from me.

A few pings from that a game and it would all but disappear within a round of fixtures.
