It certainly does speed the game up and makes for an entertaining spectacle, the players will be stinging in the morning though.

Use to play on solid pitches in winter when I were a lad, are they all softies?  |

Lots of what look like 'burn grazes' to elbows and knees.

The slug was going on about lack of studs. I thought studs were allowed on these pitches. I know my sons footie team play on them in studs.

it looks fantastic and makes for a very fast game but grazes and friction burns seem inevitable. it might look soft but tights and long sleeved undershirts might be the order of the day especially in the winter

Do you have to refer to him as the slug? It's very distasteful and makes you look like a horrible person.
No, you're not allowed studs. At least you never have when I've played on them. |

They will be using moulded studs so there will be a certain amount of grip. Stick some Vas on elbows and knees and the grazes won't be a problem. |

the bounce does look very unpredictable and thats going to be a massive advantage to widnes as they get more and more accustomed to the surface

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Since when does a Rugby ball bounce ' predictably ' ? |

Ok ill call him the fat useless fecker who wasted 3 years of my clubs development.
And you can wear studs as I've already said my sons wear them as their school has the same pitch. |

There is nothing wrong with a forward orientated game, we are not playing feckin' basketball. |
