Could Kelly be available for this one? Think we have a reserves game today - not sure whether it counts.

I might be wrong but I don't think you can use 2 games in the same weekend to count for a ban.

I'd like to see same team as last night but Faraimo back in for Swift. And a bit more game time for Fonua.

Makes sense, unfortunately

Could lay down a right marker for the season to come.

Bring on next Sunday.

An absolute litmus test

I can’t see us rolling over their pack as we barely got on top of Rovers

We have to play the complete game

Shifting the ball on tackle 3 and 4 for example



Hopefully 9 days is just right and Fonua is worth 80 mins

Free hit

You're right - even reserve midweek games (mon-thu) don't count unless the 1st team hasn't a game the following weekend.

Got the job done against rovers after a short turn around, but think if we play like that against a saints team playing how they did against Warrington, we get beat, we need to up our intensity to match them, which hopefully we can after a decent turnaround

We need to find some defensive intensity. Even with their small pack, rovers found it easy to make metres for most of the games. It drives me mad when we just stand and wait for the opposition to come to us. Saints biggest strength is their defence and we need to match them

Yeh me to, crept back in last night, I’m putting that down to short turnaround for now, we’ll find out Sunday, because saints will definitely bring it

Harking back to the day, I thought that all games that the individual was eligible for, counted provided they were arranged prior to a ban?

… not any more. It's all in the RFL "flip-book", the most difficult way imaginable to look at documents.
