Kirky, as with everyone I respect all opinions,and applaud you for having faith in McNally,I agree the try he scored against Salford was top drawer,however the bounce that day fell right for him the Salford defence opened up like the Red Sea,and the game was over at the time,admitted it still needed scoring but things sometime run perfect for you and this happened for Greg, just look at the Huddersfield game the previous season in th middle 8s it was nigh on perfect rugby that afternoon.
My point is we now need players who will not only get us to SL but keep us there,and I don't feel McNally was such a player,he scored some good tries and won't be short of offers from opposing Championship Clubs,as I said maybe Fev , Fax , even Swinton,I think we will see him back at the LSV this coming season.Take care Kirky, keep posting ,love reading yer posts and have a Merry Christmas.

Its a smaller squad than last season.I'm sure positional changes will be called upon again,through injury,disciplinary and lack of depth again. |

I am concerned about the size of the squad,last season McNally and Clare were injured early doors and missed most of the season if we lose 2 early on this season we could be struggling again and having to bring in loan players |

First game was in 1967, and have been hooked since day 1. Now live in Vancouver, Canada but follow our team any way I can.

Agreed. But I'm hoping the younger aspect of the squad will limit some general wear and tear as will some less intense games (no disrespect meant to any Champ team). I am worried though that the smaller squad will lead to fatigue at the business end for some key players.

Put like that I guess a 5'9" loose is not such a stretch   |

Would the reserve team not cover such situations - or are we not having one now  |

There will be opportunities to add to the squad as and when quality becomes available. Similar to 2016 when the likes of Mitch Brown, Matty Dawson, Danny Tickle and Josh Drinkwater were all added just in time for the Middle 8's.
I am a big advocate of not recruiting, just for recruitment's sake. |

I am saying it can be an interesting exercise watching some of a training session whilst on your way in to Morrisons.
Team selections, positions, moves etc.

The reserve situation is a farce to start with. Until the game expands and invests heavily into youth and clear pathways are created,the battle is lost before you start. The game is continually going round in circles with no answer too youth.

Whilst I agree with your coments, again, does anybody know if we are running a reserves as it was stated that we would - and if so where are the players coming from because we are about 15 light |

It was stated we would be running a reserves in a co-op with Salford, that was before Salford and Mr Beaumont lost his friend the good Doc from his position of head honcho at the AJ Bell, not heard anything since, and on tgat point I think "no news in this case is bad news"
As an aside anybody know if Leigh and SRD are runing the recipricol season ticket holder concessions this year, I enjoyed that last year went to Salford on 5 occasions. |
