He might not be too upset as Keighley were rumoured to have the second highest budget after Fev. We know they threw more money at him than we could justify.

He just needs to hope he doesn’t pick up an injury…

I'd expect another player incoming shortly.

If Keighley are wanting to offload any more players I wouldn't mind Ione. He's a very strong prop.

Batieri will be arriving next week of course.

Ultimately we need players who improve the team... The Mark Ione who played at Leigh would be a great addition. Unfortunately for what ever reason he has not been on it at Keighley, although things being far from rosy behind the scenes might have something to do with that.

Last season I was gutted to lose Doyle... right now, I'm not sure I'd break the bank to get him back.

If Segeyaro isn't staying then I'd be happy to pick Doyle up for next year.

I would rather Segeyaro stayed.

What has happened to Bradley Ho? Is he still injured?

Yep

Hear they are talking to another forward with Fenton going

Rogers and Baldy both out. Imagine Foggy out as well and no news on Walker yet. Going to be a few changes this week

To be expected. Fenton has made great progress this year and in my opinion, has been one of our better forward players. I hope he goes well at Huddersfield and can cement his place in their starting 17.

Spot on, I would go with that.

The only change I would have is Jowitt over Wynne.

If Jowitt is fit, he takes the FB spot ahead of Wynne.

Over 5500 tickets sold. Let's hope we don't do our usual trick of things seemingly on the up, big crowd and we produce a stinker of a performance.

So grab the two points in front of 5.5k.

Bongser has one idea why Iaone is not hitting the straps quite as well this season. No Lam man management and coaching? There are a few Wire rejects from Powell's first (disastrous and possibly penultimate) season (2022) that are helping shake up SL this season under Adrian's tutelage! Hmmm?

As usual, all the best for tomorrow.

Gaskell running the show at the minute - he needs to be careful !!!

Gaskell and Patton causing a riot which the Cougars really can't handle. Keighley have had no ball in the Bulls half for over 20 minutes.

The enjoyable aspect of this match has been the way all players have been keen to back up and support the attack. Massive contributions from all the new signings

Superb stuff here. Kudos Gaskell.

Great result with the bonus that Fax and Sheffield have lost their games this afternoon.

Men against boys today. We outclassed the Cougars in ever department. Gaskell and Patton running the show. Our left hand edge was unstoppable. 6 tries scored down that wing where PLT was playing. Great to put another massive score on the Cougars after how giddy they got earlier this year.

Huge problems at Keighley. Sacking Lovegrove now looks like the worst decision the club have made for some time.
