Owen Haldenby

Thank you.
Not a name I've heard mentioned much, if at all, but if he's training with the first team he must have shown some good stuff. Looks to have a decent frame for still a young lad.

Think Westerman looks bigger too from the few video's that have gone online

Balmforth certainly looks to be in very good shape and has clearly put a lot of effort in to getting in better shape between the end of the season and start of pre season. Also looks like Adbul has done a lot of work on getting in to shape too so for me that looks to be a good omen in terms of attitude.

All sounds good.

Fitness, attitude and discipline all require major improvement for next season. Hopefully, the players have realised that.

Still can't believe people get worked up at squad numbers.

As a club we were up to around 55 last year, if we can avoid been anywhere close to that it will be a start.

I couldn't agree more Dave many years of heartache and pain and a few vary rare ones of great times has gone to prove that nothing is won through fine words, heightened expectations, 'great pre seasons' iconic kits, big promises or indeed the allocation of squad numbers. They are won bye everyone having the right attitude to the game and their colleagues, quality players a game plan and hard bloody work. The numbers this year have obviously been given out so early to simply eradicate one distraction later on in the process, everyone knows before they start what their number is it means nowt and they all start with a clean sheet now get on with it.

We need something to whinge about

I worked with Tim Glasby who played for Melbourne Storm
He said Craig Bellamy was firm but fair

You had to play to the highest standards and if you did he was fair
If you couldn’t be assed to play the full 80mins he was very firm until you played for 80 mins or left the Club

We’ve never had that since Brian Smith

Never mind Glasby mate, what did Cam Smith have to say when you and him chewed the cud over a Macca D's?

cam said "Yes please I will have fries with that mate"
