five or six of the players in the Woodlands pub in Oakenshaw after the game yesterday. I have nowt against the lads having a pint or two BUT after that utter garbage they should have been on the training field and not in the ale house. They are lathargic enough without slinging ale down their necks......not on chaps

At 8pm on a Sunday night?

These guys are perfectly entitled to have lives. After a crap day at work, they're not entitiled to a beer?

What a scoop! Half a dozen blokes enjoy a pint in their local on a Sunday evening. Whatever next?

They were all in fancy dress.

On the training field straight after a game? And when they will no doubt be at least as down as the fans are?

Jeez, what a load of w@nkerage.

I'd need a pint after that game!

GET BACK on the training field straight after a game

I think reports that they were on the p/ss straight before the game are more accurate.

See nowt wrong with this after the game.

Hell, I was in the pub downing some . . . .and probably for the same reasons. . . .

and that they've been taking the p1ss since mcnamara took charge

Out of interest . . .who were they? Backs / Forwards?

You gotta keep up. I distinctly remember Macca talking in the T&A many weeks ago saying that everyone is a utility player now and can cover many positions. That is one reason why we are doing so well this season - no wait...

some nrl clubs have a rbt at training . 0.05 limit

Who wasn't

Balls! I think everyone deserved a drink after the Hull match!

This "assessment" shows that you are not to be taken seriously, as your idea of a training session on Sunday night after the game shows you to be a rugby simpleton

...but far from a Simpleton when it comes to getting bites!

Bring back the good old days when you could spend saturday night going round the pubs and clubs in town and having a chat with the players about the following days match.

Apparently Tony Smith banned Leeds' players from drinking for 48 hours before and after a match. His indisputable logic was that the players needed to rehydrate after a match if they were train properly. Obviously makes sense but I wonder how many of the players actually stuck to the rule.

Danny Ward Obviously Didn't

Maybe SM should ban them drinking until they win, lets see how quickly we get our first win then

As long as they've had their ice baths, no probs

I heard from a few sources that your average SL player can't get a wink of sleep without a few pints of ale in them after a game. Although the giants all go and play COD4

I know an ex-Northern player, a legend at another club, whose idea of preparation was going clubbing on a Saturday night & chucking illegal substances down his kneck. Players today don't know they are born.

stone the crows cobber . i might crack a tinnie now . haahhhh
