I know what you are saying Clan but there is only so much you can do. If he wants to go he wants to go. It doesn't ahve to be that we have mis handled him.....unless you know something specific. I'm not talking from personal knowledge of the guy.

thought he was on holiday, walshaw

Don't know. Just going on what has been said and if he has been mishandled is Kear the guilty party for not giving him a chance in the 1st team given the poor performances of late

heard there are several clubs interested but was going knowhere for now.

He missed the 9's week before last because of hols, maybe he's still away.

Hope your right but maybe just delaying the inevitable

Anyway as for the squad, still no Morton I see. God knows what he must think watching Johnson ship in try after try on one side and an unfit, ageing, overseas winger on the other. Griffin has payed for his defensive nightmare last week and I assume Hickey can't get out of his front door. Rinaldi to miss out forme, the bloke isn't even nearly fit. Bring him back for the Crusaders game.

Blaymire
Tadulala
Dean
Murphy
George

Wildie
Hyde

Amor
Lee
Higgins
P Johnson
Mariano
Henderson

Korkidas
King
Davey
Tony

Would definitely have Davey playing as he hasn't done anything wrong when he has played before and therefore in my opinion should have stayed in the team anyway. If the rumours are true and Rinaldi has signed for Quins for next year, this is another reason, as we should be concentrating on giving game time to someone who is young, british and likely to still be here.

To be fair to NGBC he did manage to get a picture of Jarred Hickey as his avatar long before any of us had heard of him

Blaymire,
Tadulala
Murphy,
George,
Johnson,
Lee,
Wildie,
Amor,
Rinaldi,
Johnson,
Mariano
Dean,
Tony,

SUBS - King, Henderson, Davey, Higgins,

Hardly a balanced side but
Sit out Korkidas, Hyde,

how long has Moore got before he is back?

He was ruled out for three weeks. Should be back for game after Wigan I think.

Id go with

Blaymire
Tadulala
Murphy
George
Johnson

Wildie
Hyde

Korkidas
Tony
King
Mariano
Henderson
Lee

Johnson
Davey
Higgins
Amor

I would have had Dean in the starting 17 but seeing as he played yesterday I presume he won't be selected. Really can not see that side causing Saints any problems at all but as long as the effort and commitment returns I'll be happier.

Morning ladies and gentlemen.O/T but didn't want to start a thread.Is it looking like sun block or waterproofs today?

looks more waterproofs today

Thought so



Cheers mate.

Sun is now shining, but it could go either way.

blaymires been making those fake tackles for atleast 10 years now

Put on sunblock, but pack your waterproofs - it can't make its mind up.

More rain the better may level it up a bit

Thanks for the replies.Just leaving,will cover both options.

I think we are been a little harsh on Greg Johnson people forget its his first SL season I think the lad as a lot of potential defensive position can be worked on.

Its a shame the game wont be the same!!!
