Looks like the London odds lengthened when the bookies noticed Chev Walker wasn't in our squad

| Quote: roger daly "Hello, I'm still here my friend
Thought it best I kept off here for a little while after the bit of bother he got himself into the silly sod. Blown out of proportion a little by the Police and the papers as to what exactly happened, his biggest mistake was been out in the early hours on a Monday night, it certainly hit him in the pocket, hopefully he will learn from it. Certainly wasn't very nice to see his name in the press for all the wrong reasons
Back to concentrating on his rugby now, I went to Fev on Good Friday to watch his debut for London, he went well. Rhys Lovegrove looks a very good player for them'"
Very sensible. I'm sure if Hardaker wasn't involved we'd not have known it happened (aside from the fact that it probably wouldn't have happened at all).
Great to hear he's going well. I bet it's much easier for you to cheer on London than Leeds.

| Roger, it's a precarious life as a pro athlete and it can end at any time, so players have to maximise it as best they can. I guess we all hoped your lad would go on to play for the Bulls, but no one, well no one with any common sense, will blame him for doing what he feels is best for his career. Nor will anyone blame you for supporting your lad.
I hope he has a good game....I also hope London lose as well, of course!

Thank you very much
I'm might have a bet on both teams to win today, then at least part of me can't lose today, or would it be can't win??

Looks like it ... lets hope it passes later. Got my ticket over the phone so I have to find where I pick it up from first
Can you still pay extra to get in the stand?

| You pick it up from the ticket office as usual, it's just the inside of it that's changed.
I think you can still pay to get in the stand, I can't believe the club would cut off any additional revenue streams

| Just how does the weather KNOW we are at home? I am getting really, really sick of it now.
There is not much to say about the game simply because the conditions were freezing and disgusting, and it is a small miracle that players are able toput on any sort of a show when it's like that.
London offered very little on attack - and when they did, they were determined to blow it, and di so very successfully) and we just chipped away, steadily adding to the score, in a very comfortable win that told us nothing. Except maybe that we can grind out wins and we can do whatever we need to. Oh, and that referee Cobb is at present like a lost soul. His overall demeanour is of a man who has too many rules and stuff to remember, so panics. Luckily the weather had already spoiled the game, so his inept pantomime display wasn't really relevant.

| Good solid win. We overcame losing Siejka and Purtell early on.
Very impressed with our defence (which to be fair has been good most of the year)
But I thought we grinded that one out. Thought Ferguson was outstanding.
Joe Cobb is just an awful awful referee. I hope we don't get him for another important fixture!

| I think our forwards won us that game. All four of our props won pretty much every collision and made a lot of yards. Ferguson was also excellent, and Pitts and Olbison were as solid as always. The London pack just didn't have an answer to them, which probably goes some way to explain the slow ptb.
London's best player was actually a loanee from Wire - the hooker Brad Dwyer looked very lively when he was on.

| Ground out a solid win in awful conditions despite losing Siejka and Purtell.
I thought the forwards were excellent.
I thought the referee was very poor. The 10m was non existent and he allowed far too much rubbish at the ptb. For 2 fulltime teams the game was unnecessarily slow even allowing for the conditions.
