| Quote: Sandra The Terrorist "Yeah, details are a bit sketchy (and tbf, I haven't looked that hard) but he played in their first two trial games, scoring in the second. Looks like they have an established full back (who from the six minutes of footage I've seen is decidedly dodgy under the high ball) so he'll have to see if he can force his way in.
They play their first league game on Sunday and other than Louis, obviously, their marquee signing is none other than Petero Civoniceva.'"
Good luck to Louis. At least he had the balls to go and try his luck over there. Incidentally I see that Civonaceva will be 37 next month. He's another Steve Menzies.

Yes, (and I apologise for the massive thread drift) there's some interesting names in the player movements of those clubs.
Apparently Kurt Sorenen has just retired from the Burleigh Bears and Brad Davis from the Tweed Heads Seagulls. That surely must be just a coincidence and not [ithat[/i Kurt Sorensen and Brad Davis.
Edit: Curiosity got the better of me and I've just checked. They're not the same people as their more famous namesakes unfortunately.

| The 19 is last weeks 17 plus J. Hodgson and Hall.
Actually wondering who CS is best to leave out rather than who he should include, for a change. Probably tempting fate, I know.

Fixed your quote buddy.
And we'll get pneumonia as a bonus ball.

| Quote: Wildmoose "Hodgson's in decent nick at the moment but he's on borrowed time for me, not convinced he has another season left in him. Hall does an ok job but he's just not a winger. Most impressive part of Browns game so far has been the work he's done on exit sets, 340m in 2 games is a lot of ground the forwards haven't had to make.'"
I noticed on Boots N' All Stats Pack that Rovers had 3 players in the opta team of the week; Eden, Brown and Paterson.
Brown has played himself in the team and thankfully we now have a coach who picks his players based on form rather than his favourites.
I'm going tomorrow because I think this game is a great indicator of our progress because most teams can raise their game playing the likes of Warrington and but can also get away with wins against teams low on confidence like London.
It's a very closely matched contest between two even teams but if Rovers can duplicate their attacking form and score another 6/7 tries whilst proving they can defend the odd penalty or back-to-back set, then I might actually start believing we can do more than compete for a play-off spot.
I quite confident but the bookies giving us a 4 point start is probably fair.

| Home advantage means the 4 start is about right. No doubt at Craven Park the handicap would be mirrored.

| It should be a close game but we'll win by more than two scores?
Has someone shot you this week?

| I am sorry to say, but I fear Thaler will be the main topic of conversation post- match.

That won't happen, we like to get there early, pretend it's nineteen sixty four and stand where you all stand on the side banking.
Good shout,definitely going.
