Surely this is the type of game we play Lawford?

I dont see the point in moving 2 players out of position when we have someone who already plays that position

I agree, I was more questioning who partners Lawford..

Listening to Powell he sees Kay as a utility that can fit in half back easily.
He did mention the option of Max had been discussed so he knows he can play there but as said, Max moving has more impact on the team.

Booth isn't in the squad either.

Went to a Swinton game once, it was a cup match mebbe Regal Trophy, dunno can't remember.
The clubhouse/bar was pretty much the back line of the in-goal area, it had windows with drunks hanging out carrying on and sloshing beer all over the gaff...lol
Terrible game, muddy, cold and finished 10 all or something like that, the general consensus at the time was collusion at halftime, at which it was decided a replay at Wakey would be a profitable endeavour, dunno how true that was but replays were a thing back then, the idea that 3 games a week might be a bit much, was definitely not a thing.
I think they'd a played 3 games a week all season given the opportunity.......ahh, good times

A few changes for today as expected... https://x.com/WTrinityRL/status/1792170 ... gr%5Etweet

Well played Swinton. Best opposition I've seen this season. Had a game plan and caused us all sorts of problems

Our full time training certainly is a game changer based on our scoring patterns.

Disagree that Swinton were best opposition we played this season or fittest.

That was in fact our most poorest game performance wise this season.

The first 30 in particular need to be better. Can’t keep going behind that first half. One time it will bite us when the forwards don’t pull us out of it.

Rodwell and McGillvray standout today with Boothroyd solid as a rock and looking good in second row.

Lawford didn’t have the best game but he got some awful shocking passes over his head and to his ankles.

Playing players out of their best positions is a huge no from me. Jowitt is a fullback and Walmsley is a winger.

Even though that was a very poor first 50 or so minutes, that was a great game of rugby to watch. Fair play to the ref who I think is the best we’ve had this year so far.

I thought our right side defence was a shambles today and Swinton really exploited it. I think that performance has given Powell plenty to think about. Thankfully our superior pack did the job in the end. However a win is a win, roll on to Whitehaven next week.
