It'll be interesting to see how York and Toulouse go today.
I think they are two of our challengers.

Currently York 0 Toulouse 14, near on half time, but Toulouse have just got a man red carded, Hansen, i think

Have to say I expected better from York. I know it’s two games in but I had them initially down for 4/5th.

Early signs not looking good. Against 12 men most of game and still couldn’t muster the win.

I think their backs are decent but it seems they lack much in the forward pack. This may be their undoing this season. Still early days though.

York only finally scored when Toulouse were down to 11 men

I'm expecting more from York when they have Myler and Dagger fit.

Looks like Bradford will lose Dan Okoro to Warrington although he may go back on loan.

Looks a very good prospect
20 years old
6’5” 105kg
Strong runner
Huge workrate
Doesn’t mind a collision defending or attacking
Powerful leg drive
Offload game is intelligent
Fast and athletic

He played against us a couple of weeks ago and was one of Bradfords better players while on the field
Maybe someone we could have looked at as a project for the future as he’s not overseas (British/Jamaican)
It’ll be a blow to Bradford if Warrington don’t let him go back on loan

Ran it in hard on attack and looked athletic with a good leg drive. His defence needs a lot of work from memory. Would be nice to pick up a young British prospect at prop to complement the quality looking quota players we have who all look to have potential.

Not sure if there’s anyone coming through our youth set up?

Eseh would have been that player had we been able to keep him.

We haven’t seen anything of Shaw and I always thought if he could just manage to put a few kilos on in muscle he would be a handy prop with his direct style.

Swinton beat Toulouse in France.

At the moment, I'm not confident which of the top teams will come out on top in each game.
Which is great for the league

I don’t really know enough about most teams either to know if that’s a shock or not but losing at home early in season you can’t imagine Toulouse being happy with that.

Great result for Swinton, Especially since the bookies gave them a 24-point head start. I thought they were kind of weak before, but they really proved me wrong. If I had to split up the league, I'd say there are three groups based on how good they are. There's us at the top, then Fev and Toulouse kinda together, and everyone else is sort of on the same level. And the early results seem to back that up.
