It's going to look odd in summer with 26 players wearing multiple coloured skins and tights on the legs. I'm not fond of that idea.

Suppose it's a trial, not the best start for the Ipitch.

yeah i think the RFL need to sort that out, Cockayne Wearing pink skins, acouple wearing White, cant remember if any black were on show but I have seen plenty of the black ones last season. then we have different colour cycling short type pants as well. The sport will look like a knock about where everyone has brought their own kit. Needs nipping in the bud.

Thought the pitch was good, we will have to see with injurys over the season before we knowfor sure. Like someone says the skinz need looking at each club one colour should be easy. Will take Widnes a few games to get up to speed but great to see them back!

I see what the i stands for now.

Coyle's horrible injury this afternoon will no doubt bring more criticism of the pitch. Will be interested to note the comments coming from other SL players in the next few weeks.

Can't beat a bit 'o grass I say.

Hope the poor kid is ok, similar injury to Chev Walkers I have heard.

That moment when you're made to look a bit foolish?

(above) Matty Ashurst's knees after playing on GRASS last night.
Similar conditions last night to the one before. The iPitch is now accepting grovelling apologies.

To be honest, it was going to happen that the very first injury or issue then players were going to automatically blame the iPitch and forget all other factors. If anything looking at the injuries, those sustained last night were quite a bit worse. The iPitch is very much still under review but it's worth waiting to ascertain all the facts before slagging off the as yet unknown.

Matty has just put two fried eggs with tommy sauce on his knees. You can see the yolk and the egg white clearly. Next up we'll have some nancy sticking a celery stick on each knee to summon the effect of bone sticking out.

quality as always mate...

quite a few complaints of burns so far, been said fax u23 team looked terrible after the game back in the changing room.

Crusaders lot haven't sounded too fussed?

They could have played it on the snow tracks elsewhere like

What happened was he must have snuck into the ipitch later that evening and slid across it because of a pro sky conspiracy.

I cracked my Ipod screen once. Cut my finger to bits just the same.
