| Sounding like a costly game with the injuries to Scurr, Doro and Blackmore. The Blackmore injury was exceptionally poor play from the Dewsbury player coming in late and attacking the legs. I hope the disciplinary board take a closer look at that challenge. Hopefully the injuries are not long term as we are now starting to look light in certain positions.
Overall I thought we were ruthless and clinical in the first half and scored some great tries. Souter, Lilley, Scurr and Doro were stands out during the first half of play. Dewsbury only got out of their own half when we dropped the ball from the kick offs, which caused some serious disruption. The second half was a bog standard early season game. Lacking in quality from both sides but fortunately we'd attained enough points to always be in the driving seat and not have to worry about the scoreline.
We march on to the next stage against our rivals down at Cougar Park. Let's hope we actually get off the team bus this time around.

| Thought we had concussion 18th man substitutes last year? I could be wrong.

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.: |
|
| Changed it for this year.
Last year was 3x Concussions, 18th man could be activated.
This year is 2x Concussions OR 1 injury (head or otherwise) which ends the game for the player and has come about through foul play, serious enough to warrant a yellow or red card.

| Just watching the highlights and McGowans try from the scrum, I couldn't help notice the quality of Souters pass from the base of the scrum, fast, accurate and in front of Gaskell and it starts the whole move off. Such a change from seasons gone where we've had slow passes from dummy half, behind the player, which just slows the entire attack down.
Think Souter may end up as an 80 minute hooker as the season progresses and maybe only interchange with Flanagan against "lesser teams"
We do look vulnerable in depth for the spine though. Any of Souter, Gaskell or Lilley get a knock and the drop in quality is significant.

| Souter is a class above that's for sure. His reading of the game for his try off Gaskell was great too. An old head on young shoulders.

| Interesting to watch the full game back and in particular look at the two incidents which ended up in injuries to Blackmore and Scurr.
Have to say, for me I think the referee got both calls spot on. First was a low shot to legs but wasn't a cannonball tackle by any stretch and I think a yellow sufficed.
The Scurr one was just a case of his leg getting caught underneath him. Really can't see what the defenders could have done differently in that situation.
