Reserves at Home tomorrow for anyone interested.

2 home games on the bounce, I think I'll attend both

Why can't they have the academy games on as warm up matches before the main event ,then the players are playing with a bigger crowd and us people who cannot make it to see games on different days can get to watch the academy as well as the 1st grade !
I know that we have done this from time to time but we should make it the norm for home games anyhow and get rid of them awe full so called cheerleaders , and 2nd rate singers !

They do that for some away games. As for home games, either they are saving the pitch, or the academy team will be used as a curtain raiser to games at home.

A fair question for the RFL.

because it's not fair on the ppl that want to stay in the pub till 2 mins to kick off who then have to cause other people hassle by coming into the ground and annoying ppl that have turned up in good time or even earlier to watch the academy by trying to squeeze into space that isn't there.

heartless s

Of course if the people that arrived first had the decency and sense to move along the terraces and fill the gaps in the middle instead of crowding around the yellow stairs then the latecomers would be able to get in no problem.

You would have missed KO on Saturday if it hadn't been for me...sorry!!

how the come the reserves dont play at the hj before the senior team play
it happens at away games like harlequins ?

How come no-one else has already asked this question on this very thread?

I think the main reason is to protect the pitch - now it seems to be in a decent state, they may play some Academy games as curtain raisers this year.

Will be down for them tomorrow.

have you got 4 dressing rooms at HJ .....we havnt at Craven park and that is the reason we dont play reserve grade on same day

is it 3pm today?

No. About 10 to 9.

It seems we have six curtain raisers for our hit up in Scotland

I don't know for definate, but I would imagine that if the club can accomodate 6 teams for the NL Grand Finals, then a couple of academy teams shouldn't be any problem.

Kick off 2.30 pm

Dentist time.

Do you want to keep a decent playing surface or go back to the mess that was last year?

So what was the score?

And I was answering a question about changing rooms. No mention was made of the playing surface! But, for what it's worth, I would prefer to keep the reserves at Wilderspool for just that reason.

We scored about five tries, HKR either two or three. We won anyway.

Does anybody know how the Reserve Team went on?

Did Bridge play?
