Some signings you take on trust. I'd not seen Hall so couldn't comment. When he wasn't being picked from the start and we seemed to chop and change the fullback it was increasingly clear we hadn't got a proper replacement.

I thought Hall didn’t get much of a chance to be honest. But then again, I don't see him everyday in training.

Flanagan Jr has to start at fullback for the rest of the season. Lawford has to at least start on Sunday with Patton to get a game in before he’s halfback for the year.

Camden should be on the bench for me, and brought on later. Maybe start next week alongside Lawford when Patton is out.

Lawford in the squad as is Muizz but no Flanagsn Jr.

You were also John Kear's chief defender iirc.

No Flanagan Jr means there’s no fullback. So the attack will die once it goes Lawford to Patton to Kear.

I’d love to see the young lads. But with no FB you’re attack goes to unless you want to barge over. Based on this I’m not going. I’ll go to Widnes with it being the last game but I’m not spunking £44 to watch a rag tag team.

We need a coach. A proper coach.

If I’m wrong and we win. Feel free to tell me, but I’d rather lose and have Flanagan Jr and Lawford both playing to gain a slight understanding as Patton will be out for the season.

Against my better judgement, I have purchased tickets for tomorrow. Won't lie, mainly because my lad is a massive fan of Sonic. If it's Nigel waddling around inside the costume though, he isn't going to be impressed. On my part, I'm hoping to see the young halfback get a game.

So if Patten gets a ban and Lilley misses a few games through injury, we might end up playing both academy halves. I agree with the majority, I think Dunning’s strength will be his willingness to use the academy properly, he needs to start playing to his strengths.

still no working vpn ... another game i cant hear .... been thrashing around where to find a radio station that gets through the stupid chinese firewall but still cant find. missed so many games this season and some might say 'not a bad thing' lol but i still need my rugger

Lawford starting

15 minutes gone 6 - 0 to Worky. Unbelievable ! We're giving pens away again, and can't score a try with a number of restarts.

We won. Only played between 45-80minutes and put 48 points on them.

First half - absolutely shocking. Kept giving the ball away, no running, no line speed. But defence was ok I suppose.
Must have got a rocket at half time, different team, Flanagan took control, directed the forwards, who actually ran with some purpose . Difference between night and day.

Some nice tries as well, looking forwards to seeing them on bulls tv

Crowd given as 2691 but I'm assuming that includes a LOT of non-attending ST holders and 'others'

Highlight was definitely the commentary from Mick as someone burst into the commentary box to tell them to turn off the air conditioning unit because it was too effing noisy. Then started to squeal that they'd been assaulted. They sounded deranged.
