I don’t necessarily disagree with you Poptart, it’s that pesky scoundrel Homme Vaste who took his shot at you last night.

It’ll sure be interesting watching to see if what you’ve said is true, as you say certain things aren’t always deemed as having the same impact in terms of contribution. If Bowden is putting us on the front foot towards the oppositions line then IMO that’s just as important as contributing to some of the hard yards near our line.

He should have had the second try too. Kay held on to ball instead of releasing for Bowden to have a walk in under sticks.

Stats for the Swinton game have been posted now...I'd suggest anybody who finds these interesting follow the 'X' account that goes to all the trouble of collating and publishing the data. Rodwells stats are impressive! https://x.com/WTHeritagePod/status/1792 ... uURzQ&s=19

Atoni was very strong as well. The backs made some great meters, Walmsley, McGilvery, Olpherts and Pratt but Walmsley didn't make a tackle.
