Early Days but we showed some good signs, we looked very fit, all the new boys looked good especially L’Hooker, Rocky, Crookes, and Clare. Of the ‘old’ guard Reynolds, Hood and Paterson were the stand outs for me.
I think we struggled initially with pace of the game and our in play kicking wasn’t great as they were quick to close the kickers down but when they got up to speed and the kickers took a further step back, we took control, the second half was spoiled by Wanes team selection, but makes for a good day here at work.
The plus side is as we were walking up through Leigh, we bumped into my cousin and her husband to our surprise they were going to the game, I’ve never known them to go before, they’re planning to attend most home games this season. Also as we were stood in the queue to get in, another couple, friends of ours were in the queue, he usually attends about one game a year, he’s a keen cyclist and the change in fixture days means he’s planning to attend more games and was proud to show off his first new home shirt, don’t think she’d been since the last time we were in SL.
Also good to see more signs/sponsorship at LSV.
