Orrell v Maries was a good, physical game.

It was even pretty much through out but a good spell for Maries in the first 10 mins of the second half brought them two quick tries that would decide the game.

Their second & summer team have always had a bad rep but most were a decent set of lads. Unfortunately there's just a couple of idiots who still want to fight at any opportunity.

Im not being funny mate but that was a weak St Maries side. I expect Orrell and Latchford to prop up the table this year. Played against Orrell last year and they were not up to much and also got mauled in their first game.

We had four or five out too.

It's a young newish side & I'm the oldest on the team at 25.

Give us a clue why the rocks icon??

Erm because we won

Dalton v Widnes St Maries
Halton Farnworth v Wigan St Jude's
Ince Rose Bridge v Askam
Latchford Albion v Adlington Rangers
Wigan St Patricks v Orrell St James
Woolston Rovers v Widnes West Bank

Couple of cracking fixtures on saturday dalton and maries will be close think dalton may edge it, farnworth and judes will be good as judes have only lost one and farnworth seem stronger at home and us and woolston as always are good games

Some of the Wigan sides may struggle with players going to Headingley for the playoff off semi.

I'm having to miss our fixture v Pats as are a couple of my team mates and a few Pats boys.

Orrell should pick up the points based on this.

More than likely.

askam have a tough trip saturday and i believe adlington and farnworth has been switched to a farnworth home game

Come on West Bank your being to reserved on Div2 forum,wats happened to you,u been on the chill pills pal,

He's all posh now he goes to play against posh clubs

It's a bit hard for him to have banter on his own!

Don't know how Adlington were unbeaten before Saturday but they got their loss in the end. Anyone dare to bet against the 3 Widnes teams being the top 3 come the business end of the season...? All 3 have settled squads and dont rely on players from elsewhere (Wizards etc)

Discuss.....

If that's a dig at Woolston, unfortunately we're the only team in Warrington who don't get many players from the Wizards come the end of their season. We had one lad who has played with Woolston since being a junior and he may be joined by one other! For sone reason Bank Quay appears to be team they all choose to play winter rugby for.

Id say the 3 Widnes teams have excellent chances of finishing at the top. We, Woolston, as Coley has stated, have never and will never rely on Wizards players. We are our own club.

Our start to the season has seen us playing catch up almost immediately. We have had a bad start to the year with injuries and unavailability which has seen us playing lads totally out of position and leaving us light "upfront" ie our back row has been filled with centres, etc

That said West Bank thoroughly deserved to beat us but we were very poor against Askam and woeful against Adlington, not taking anything away from those 2 teams though!!

Not at all a dig fella, I was just using the Wizards as a local example. It happens to teams across the NWC mate. As for Woolston, I always thought you were a good side, do you think a year in D2 will serve you well, before hoping to push on for next season? What are your u18/u17's like? West Bank are obviously doing well at the minute, but the weather conditions (at places like Adlington, Askam etc) will be a stern test for anyone.

What are people's opinions on 18-0 walkovers in D2? I think its disgusting, there are teams in D3, D4 who would get a side every week would defo fulfil fixtures, My Opinion is they should be thrown out!

I don't think ANY are coming Bank Quay
Who is coming BQ from the Wizards

Will Alan Reddicliffe not be returning? Suppose you could count Scott Davidson and Danny Shaw but I appriciate they've been injured etc. Was more making the point that they don't all return to Woolston, thinking about it Rylands will probably inherit a couple of lads, tink, Wilson etc.
Although we've played no where near our potential yet this season it's clear it's going to be a much tougher league.
The tough games are great, really enjoyed our game with west bank last week, it's the eye gouging of Adlington I'm not too keen on.

I don't think Reddicliffe is playing winter
think Rylands have the bulk of em this season
Wilson
Yii
Johnno ( I think )
Tink

Bad up there mate. I have seen things up there I have never seen in 15 years of rugby league. We all like it tough but blantant leg break attempts elbows to jaws gouging is par for the course up at their hole. When you play them at your place you might want to play on a big pitch instead of one of your small ones!
