| Too few first teamers today. I hope Chester bloods the whole first team for the next two friendlies. Knowing how undercooked we were last year.

| Sounds like we made the same mistake Hull did against Featherstone last year. Too many inexperienced players against decent Championship opposition. Which wouldn't matter if it was just to give the young lads experience, but I do think for a testimonial match its a little bit of a shame.
If it's just an unwanted additional game for the coach then a Legends game or some other sort of novelty element would seem a sensible alternative to me. If Chester wanted a chance to test the kids, then have both, maybe as a double header.

30596_1286642206.jpg If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

| Does anybody give a shizzle about these games?
Other than it being Netherton's testimonial I can't see a reason to attend.

| Can anyone who attended give any insight to the new boys and how they played? Marsh seemed to have had a decent game before he limped off. Also interested to find out how last seasons lads went aswell, Welham after he's being "training the house down" and salter?

| Welham played well actually the others to look good IMO were Dixon and Larroyer sadly none of the young lads shone except Marsh and we had no direction when he went off. Salter seemed a bit off the pace even in defence. Wasn't easy for anyone to look particularly good as we looked so disorganised and under done but then that was to be expected.

Played at scrum half thought he was ineffective although Fax to their credit snuffed him out with constant pressure whenever he had the ball - he was on the receiving end of a few big hits from Ambler and their stocky centre Taylor. He did have opportunities to run the ball from dummy half but it doesn't seem to be in his DNA. Boudebza tried but Kaye dominated that area of play (and was my MoTM).
As someone has already remarked, Fax were very tight whereas Rovers were disorganised and lacked any real penetration. What disappointed me most was not seeing the defensive resolve Chester is suppose to be accountable for, but this was more apparent when Horne went off injured, who had his usual good show.
I agree with the comments about Kris Welham, he looks as though he has shrugged off last seasons doldrums but could have shielded his wingman more, something's never change.
The player I was most disappointed with was Josh Guzdek; I know he is coming back from injury but he did himself no favours yesterday.
The opposite cannot be said about Matty Marsh, who after a slow start began to dominate and probe before his injury; he took a couple of 'unfriendly' follow through's but Fax came over to play, even Jason Netherton got the treatment, and that was a striking difference to me and reflected in the final score.
The consensus from those I spoke to after the match was how Rovers coaching staff had underestimated Fax, that's one theory, but you have to trial the youngsters and it did seem the right time to do so. At least Chester and Poching have more insight on the progress of the u19s, for sure they will be very happy with Matty Marsh.

| I see yesterday as a real missed opportunity, we have virtually a new team to gel together and a very limited time to do so. Our next 2 matches are against SL opposition and will be pretty rugged affairs so why wouldn’t Chester give his 1st team a run out yesterday.
Realistically what did we gain from that, I struggle to see a positive, Carlisle at 7? Will that ever happen, Playing our 2nd string everywhere else will give us an insight into how they play but unless they are in a team with other 1st teamers it doesn’t give a representative view.
For me we’d have been better playing our 1st team against a championship 1 team just to blow off the cobwebs and get some combinations going.

Maybe Chester does not want other super league teams to see how bad or how good the first team players are

| Only positives i could see from the game was boudabza looked lively. I thought Greg Burke looked a useful player and matty marsh looked ok. Dixon looked Sharp and has some real pace about him.I thought the rest were average at most and got dominated by a team that came to take the game serious
