Max 2T 11G ?

Wrong again mate, I thought you were going to try and do better with your predictions this year?!

Job done

I was correcting my own prediction but as I said we'd hammer them as fitness counted in the second half I'm OK with my original prediction.

Hopefully no injuries but how long will Lino be banned for and will we miss him ??

Wish it would have been more

Sheffield Eagles 88 : 12 Newcastle Thunder

6 - 70 FT
That’s a good result and a potential trapdoor avoided
Lino being sent off is a bit of a downer but Lawford will now get his chance
Hopefully we didn’t pick up any injuries
Well done Max Jowitt, 30 points in any game is a great achievement

On to face Hunslet ARLFC in the next round

Serious question here. Anyone know what odds are for Jowitt championship top points scorer?

From what I saw from last season, no.

Gives Lawford a chance

Apparently Newcastle played 15 of their Academy players

I've no doubt next week's game will be easier than today's.

So we scored 70 points and neither winger scored

I noticed that too.

9 different scorers I think

Only 8... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-leagu ... EVP4415313

That’s also with Siddals winger seeing red too!

How narrow is that Siddal pitch

Hopefully the highlights and game are put up over weekend.

They have been playing the university players, mostly Union lads, it’s hard for them but it’s either ticking over and waiting for an investor or fold and end of. Like someone as said next weekend could be an easier game than today I’m afraid

I'll be honest, I wasn't expecting 70.

I saw an old post on the Heritage page, and it featured the challenge cup in 1980, and there were some ties on there featuring amateur sides, and they all gave the superior sides a run

It can't be the pitch......their winger scored.

How did Vagana get on.

Sign him up

He's already improved our season by getting Lino a probable ban.

Job done but we were dumb at times in the first half.

Atoni was awful in his first spell didn’t look like he could be bothered looked to get a rocket ahead of his second spell and was much better.

Vagana and Uele lifted the intensity massively.

Think Cozza looks most at risk when we have a full set of forwards to pick from.

Doyle went very well at 13 when he moved there.

Professional second half poor first half but job done.

Think we will see some squad rotation next week with fringe/reserve players getting a chance.

Cozza for me is more of a 13 than a prop and has looked good at 13. I can see him on bench interchanging at 13 mostly.

Doyle is looking like a good interchange 9 and if he can play 13 that’s a bonus.

I don’t think we will see too much change. The more the first team play together the better they will become imo.

I can see Bowden, Boothroyd and Lawford coming in next week at least and maybe Franco.
