If we play the compare game (assuming Holroyd and McDonnell and gannon are fit and parcell doesn’t get a ban and hkr have everybody fit). They look like this

8. Sue
9. Litten
10. King
11. Hadley
12. Batchelor
13. Minichella

14. Parcell
15. Luckley
16. Whitbread
17. Tanginoa

We are

8. Mik
9. Ackers
10. Holroyd
11. McDonnell
12. Martin
13. Smith

14. O’Connor
15. Lisone
16. Sangare
17. Gannon

That is 10 players from a 17 and honestly I would pick possibly 2 out of that 10 from HKR over what we have.

So I just don’t get the comment. I think what you are trying to say (I will try and elucidate) is that you don’t like Smith, you don’t like his attitude, the way he sets his team up, the level of aggression he instills.

I will also go out in a limb and suggest you think we need bigger bodies, line bending props, big impact, rush défense and you want to see big hits and hard agressive play.

Good to get the win. Some sets were scratchy but it is going to take time for a completely new spine to get set. Next week could be tricky, let's see.

More importantly, still waiting on an update on whether Donaldson has got his headphones back from Nene MacDonald.

Out of context liberalism right there.

Sorry i think you have me mixed up with someone else , all i said was "i think H.K.R will be too strong for us in the Forwards "

I like this version of Ash's try.

1 match ban for Brierley seems to indicate he should have been sent off
No ban for Momirovski from the MRP
