Completely agree.

He played left centre yesterday.

Nicholson was the standout player no doubt. I think you were sat just behind me.

Good, it's absolutely awful.

I watched the Wigan ladies game a couple of weeks ago on Sky (the same night we played Catalan) and it was a shocking standard. Absolutely shocking that I pay money to sky and they don't televise all SL games, or all NRL games but play this tripe.

I'm very much a one step at a time kinda guy. The club can't even broadcast academy games, let's not add another headache with Women's rugby.

Do you know with a couple of the anecdotes that you told me I should have guessed that it was you!!
Good to finally meet you at last. Pity that the bar wasn't open as we could have had a couple of pints to pontificate about the game.

I really should make more of an effort to attend these games. A good standard and quite a decent crowd too yesterday I thought.

I really like Nicholson. Looked for work and to offload whenever possible. As you said he's the next lad to come off the production line to go into the first team. He will put plenty of pressure on Smithies, Shorrocks, McDonnell and KPP when he does finally make his debut. As you said we have some real potential talent in the backrow.

Yes he played centre. He's a big lad who I'm sure will get even bigger.
For me a pretty quiet game but he took his try well.
He's got the habit of "dummying" a step when he first gets the ball which slows him down a bit but I'm that is something that Goulding will sort out.
I'd like to think that he has bags of potential.

A very simple but great idea.
The club and the fans should be the same community. We shouldn't be separate we should be as one.
Once SW takes over this should hopefully leave KR time to improve this area along with the new Marketing Director.

The club has really got to open up and expunge this almost siege like mentality they have at times

I had to leave early as it was my granddaughters birthday and with the stoppage in play for the Hill acl injury and subsequent delay.
We went in the Red Robin pre game, something we always do for the academy games, feel free to join us next year.

Thanks for the invite
I will definitely take you up on that.
I’m semi retired now so I’d like to think I will have more time now to watch more rugby.

Heh! As a relative newcomer here, I'd always assumed that you guys all knew each and had been friends for donkey's years!

I watched that lad Nicholson against HKR; he can certainly play a bit!

I saw something yesterday in Nicholson that I hadn't seen/noticed before. He played more of a ball playing role and I can only assume that he's been working with O'Loughlin on that part of his game.

I got the acl injury wrong, it was Harvey Makin not Harvey Hill who went off, and it looked/sounded serious.

Some tough decisions to be made down the line regards all these young backrowers. The bits I’ve seen of Nicholson suggests he’ll certainly push the ones in the first team pretty hard when his chance comes. You’ve got Faz and certainly Bateman who you would expect to be around for another 4-5 years, so spaces are at a premium.
