Quote: Dave K. "Yes it does, you would imagine worse case he would miss the first 3/4 games. Allows to have Brown at hooker, just really hope they give Balmforth a chance next year, he might not be good enough or make it but it would be good to see what he can do, particularly early on, as it helps recruitment.'"
I’m hoping we have a good first few fixtures, playing likes of London & Cas would mean we don’t need to try rush players back. They are on paper weakest squads in league. Either that or play Wigan early as they’ll steamroll most teams next year.
I’m hoping we see 3-4 friendlies this year. Big squad, let the fringes play big minutes and key players can be drip fed in. Rather than 2-3 friendlies with senior players only getting about 60 minutes across them
