Really enjoyed it tonight. I thought Matty Russell and Ryan King looked particularly sharp for us. Amos seemed unwilling to do too much running. Dom Crosby went off injured in the last game, in the act of scoring.

Wigan by far the best team on the night. British Police played better than you might think - they were beating Saints at half time, and only lost by 2 in the end (18-16 I think that game finished).

Saints looked good in parts - Dan Brotherton looking dangerous on the wing (reminded me a bit of BJ Mathers). Nathan Ashe tried to play the game standing still - looked clueless at times.

All in all a good night. 2 more Tuesdays to go, isn't there?

Yeah - not many there. I think it could have been promoted a whole lot better than it was, but unfortunately it seems that the RFL left it up to the host clubs to market it as they saw fit, and even charge what they wanted for it. I phoned Wrexham about 3 weeks ago to inquire about prices and start times, and they knew nothing about it! I think we'd have seen a much bigger crowd if it was promoted better.

Having said that, praise must go to the RFL (or someone) for a great concept. Together with the Exiles game, that's 2 great ideas in quick succession! Shame they haven't quite got everything right about both.

I liked the speed of the game - no scrums - just tap restarts or hand overs, which makes for non-stop action. Also, no kicks off the ground - all goals were drop goals. I suggest everyone gets to next week's game - you'll love it!

I have a feeling Gareth Hock will play in the games at Whitehaven.

Good to hear the Police side did well, 100% Warrior off this board plays for them, learned everything he knows off his Dad apparently.

A few are/were very good academy players that did not quite make the grade for whatever reason, so the experience is defiantly there.
