| As stated on our podcast last night, 62% of our first team squad have played less than 10 games for Trinity. Partnerships, link plays and set moves take time to perfect in training - never mind in a real world Rugby League game with line speed and pressure etc. I'm pretty happy with where we are at at the moment.

| Quote: JamieRobinson1234 "I can't quite fathom how this has been deemed as a negative?
We haven't been solely relying on "Max's moves" - which in itself is a poor interpretation of a 5-6 man set-play that works 90% of the time starting from the aforementioned "one up drives". The conditions / pitches haven't allowed us to be throwing tips plays or 40 yard passes so we have had to play conservative and then play more dynamically when the time is right - which we have done successfully.
The Lino-Griffin partnership has shown promise, we have already shown that Pitts, Cozza, Doyle and Ashurst can ball play as well as having Hood and Smith become part of the attack if necessary. We have had 22 different try scorers with 19 different assisters in 8 different games already in 2024.
If it's variety you're wanting, I'm not sure what else you're looking for.'"
Guys a Cas troll. Quite sad.

Perhaps some decent weather, rather than incessant rain on a farmers field of a pitch will help with some flowing rugby.
We've played plenty of decent stuff in the drier weather.

| I think we'll see our potential slightly more at Donny.
Nice big pitch. Not a slope or boggy area in sight. And a decent team to play.
I'm looking forward to it.

| The return to the team of both Griffin and Thornley gives that right edge a lot more potency, would like to see Lino use one of them on a short ball near the line, will be very hard to stop. Have we had any news on when Jerry is back?

He features on the video clip of the team training for this weekend - looks fit and sharp.

| Without wanting to get carried away, I'm expecting a comfortable win this weekend. I think we'll be too strong on a proper pitch.

| Opinions are brill, however, in the fev match, fevs forwards supported the ball carrier & interposed with each other far more than we did. But I accept. that we lasted longer than Fev, from 70 mins !
The next match on a decent pitch will show if we can play more expansive ?

The last paragraph is the crucial one.
I honestly think we will get better playing on a rugby pitch.

Absolutely we can play much better. I didn’t think trinity were playing anywhere near their capability vs Fev, we will hugely improve as the season progresses imo.
I disagree about Fev’s forwards imposing more than ours. It was pretty even however there were some telling battles in the middle which Trinity just about won. Vagana and Springer went at it all game and Vagana came out on top.
Watching the game back on YouTube the result was about right. What held trinity back was ball control and discipline. Fev really only scored because we were caught cold on a tap following a penalty on our line and same again later. The try’s from Fev were not a result at all of Fev’s forwards and supporting the ball carrier.
Let’s not forget this team has 12 or so new signings plus some young lads so they’re still developing combinations and it will improve over the season.

We saw a glimpse of that at York in the 1895, I'm taking that as a bench mark performance in the dry.
