The latter part of your last sentence sums it up for me. We give opposing teams far too much time to get runners coming at us. Get into their faces they won't like it up 'em!

My team:

Owen
Riley
Walshaw
Ryan
Jowitt
Sammut
Godinet
McShane
Anderson
Scruton
Kirmond
Smith
Annakin

Molloy
Moore
Wildie
Raleigh

Bench pretty weak without Tautai/Lauititi available

Ii realised Dan Smith weren't in the squad, who else? As you can see, I haven't paid much attention to the squad list

Oh yeah, just realised Raleigh and Riley.

Owen to wing and Mathers to full back. Then fairbank for Dan Smith. Washbrook for Raleigh. Although, I think Agar will still play Mathers on the wing and possibly Jowitt at full back and Washbrook will start

Tough game today. My hopes for today are that we play strong. If we do that and get beaten, so be it, but we need to find a performance that will give us a boost going into next weeks game. If we can challenge Wire, we can beat the Bulls.

I agree. Battle hardened for Bulls rather than saving ourselves

When did we sign this new lad?

mcshane is out

.......does that mean Cameron has FINALLY arrived ? )) :

actually means Matty Wildie can come in Mc Shane can get right for next week v Bulls and maybe able to watch the team he coaches Hunslet Old Boys in cup final v Sharlston ko 2.30.

Team more or less picks itself then....McShane and Jowitt to miss.....Big chance for Max Wilby to step up!

That's rubbish news about McShane. Means Godinet won't be in the halves.

Mmmm, Siejka and Sykes at half back. They need to improve.
Only 3 props too.

By my reckoning there are four props - Fairbank at LF. I'll admit using an extra prop forward at LF has been one of Agar's best tactics - unfortunately I think only Tautai, out of all our forwards, has been effective there.
