Being Jordans dad,I have to say,I agree whole heartedly that survival this year is paramount and the strongest team should be picked every game.If you get to ask Jordan the same question I know for a fact he will say the same.he's had a sniff at Super League and obviously wants more,but I know and Jordan knows his time will come so whatever team RA picks has got the full support of the Crowther household.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion but, opting in and out of the scheme based on the weekends team selection is just plain daft.
Regarding the 1873 scheme, the people who don't commit to this are the same people who complain that we aren't producing enough decent juniors.
FWIW, I think Wilde should be in this week, so that we can spell McShane but the key for all of us this season is SL survival.
Nothing else matters.
Finally, I think that you need to cut the club some slack. 4 1/2 months ago we were on the brink of Admin. and now, thanks to MC & Co, we have a competitive squad and a decent chance of playing SL rugby next season

Is the first post OT or just all the ones that followed???

Wakey team for me should be...

Mathers
Fox
Collis
Lyne
Riley
Sammut
Godinet
Anderson
Mcshane
Scruton
Kirmond
Lauitiiti
Tautai

Subs. Smith, Raleigh, Ryan and Siejka (gamble for first game against arguably best team in Super League.... Wildie would have been safer option IMHO).

You r wasting your time khlav, wakey till I die and willzay folk on here would follow the pied piper they don't give a damn as long as there a issues second rate or not .yea inside man do you think wildie as had affair chance to prove himself like walshaw, like cowling 10 mins here and there against to opposition. Right kinley you say siejka maybe showing enough in training fair enough let's see, eh on the youth development I'm going tomorrow ain't seen owt yet accept possibly the winger johonstone who could hold a candle to the team we let go a few seasons ago , I said all last season that the u 16s who we were told were gonna be the saviors of the club hadn't played any one of note, how have they done this season, I'll give my opinion after saints tomorrow and I'll eat humble pie if I'm wrong. Right Mr Harrison we've had the players but its been too much like hard work to develop them , we won the u18s academy title what more do you want, easy enough to say kear didn't do owt with em but there were plenty of em playing with our u20s during agars reign , you've only to look at the form shown by Frankie Mariano to show how flawed agars judgement is. I've seen Ryan and he ain't as good as walshaw, haven't seen harry yet but he's an Aussie must be good eh dreadnought. Has for vast man I dismiss owt you say , you try to be an intellect but your comments show me you very little about the game although you try your best to make folk think you do

go and watch the U16s tomorrow Vs St Helens, Win, Lose or Draw they'll show you that some of our youngsters have real quality and some of those on show tomorrow will be U15s.

Think about Max Jowitt, Jordy Crowther, Harry Swann and a few others from the U19s but are actually U17s and you'll see that there is some quality coming through

How much game time has Wildie had? I have never seen anything from him that makes me think I would be gutted if he left.

I'll be there and I guarantee there be plenty of 17yrolds in tha saints team

Exactly but because they wont play every round people wont be happy. Some young ones will be played. I called him pathetic because homegrown players arent being played now Willzay we arent all doom and gloom and were also not SL coaches so lets leave it to the pros...

Just a point, my expertise was at a time when age groups had two years between when I coached u 17s the next age down was15 and when I coached u19s the age down was 17 when I was 16 I wasn't frightened of owt and Im sure these lads feel the same so don't throw the age age thing at me16 to 19 still lads

Fair enough but the physical aspects have changed and you know they have.

I'm sure there will be but I'm more concerned with our lads.

Can people stop quoting Try Scorer as I have him on ignore and I'm still finding myself reading his inane and repetitive drivel when he's being quoted

Did he teach you all how to spell?
