Without Penny playing for us I don't tink we have anything to threaten them with.

Cup games are cheaper anyway, stop moaning you tight git



The RFL should be pushing the Beeb to show this.
Obviously Hudds v Wire will be shown because of last years final

Did you go on Sat- We made break after break from 40 yards + out. Clubb, BJB, Sharpe went through stacks of times. Add Dorn, Purdo and Howell to the mix and we have options to open teams up.

Against Wakey yes, but we are playing Saints

Gidley, Gardner, Meli, Wilkin, Wellens are not the fastest set of backs in SL. Whilst also accepting that Willis(Eastmond) and Wallace (Price) do have pace.

Of course.

I forgot Penny played last time out. I was thinking 'Why are they saying that? They get half the cash.'

I'm rather glad that Penny isn't playing, actually. We might have a chance of winning properly this time, with no-one to out-jump our pitiful wingers! Of course, they could still be out-run but that's a risk we've been taking for years.

Um, that would be an understatement! However, Wilkin can do great interceptions, Meli is a mountain from 10ms, Gardner can actually tackle and Wello has an incredible ability to read a game, usually positioning himself beautifully (and I never quite figure out how he gets where he does, given his slow pace). So these things outweigh their snail-like qualities.


Oh, they do. They have a neat sidestep too! And good kicking games. I believe Wello is back for the Leeds match. Assuming we come through that and subsequent matches in one piece (not an assumption I like to make, given our record of injuries so far this season), Kyle and Leon could cause you problems. They were just really beginning to gell when we lost Wello and then Lomax (substitute fullback) to injury, meaning Leon filled in and we lost the halfback pairing.

However, this was not the match I wanted for the fifth round. It's too difficult. I am still bemoaning the fact that Leeds got Blackpool and not us!

I was gutted quins didn't get blackpool away. What a weekend out that would be.

Meli Isnt as slow as some like to make out,the rest are mind.
Wilkin's a back rower who has been playing In the backs through injuries.

Still, we reversed an 8-point home league defeat last round, what's to stop us doing it again?

17 blokes in white shirts with a red v on them.

Apart from them?
