Summer Bash, Headingley : Mon Jul 25, 2022 6:39 pm  

Can't wait for this weekend. Time to put the London game behind us and get back to business. It'll be like a new ground for me, I can't remember the last time I went to Headingley. Hopefully with a few lads back we can show that London was a blip and push on for our end of season success. Three Pigs, White Rat 4.0% Mmm! Up The Fax!

Just got to turn up and focus , Kavanagh and worthington back , barber should give us a big boost. Listening to mark dunning Bradford are in a bad place, the rumour is some players may be struggling to get paid , regardless we have to reset and push for the highest place we can get .

Didn't go on Sunday so can't comment on individual performances. I agree players mentioned above would make a big difference, I'd bring Worthington back, not sure who he'll drop to accommodate him. Don't know if Walmsley is fit - if so I'd definitely want him back in - depending on how he recovered after the weekend I'd also love to see Brad Knowles on the bench.

Apparently went as a young kid but cant remember so looking forward to this one.

11.40 train from fax to leeds all been well.

Cant see bulls giving us much trouble and cant see Dewsbury troubling batley but who knows

Walmsley back in, would move arundel to second row if needed for worthington

I think my last visit to headingly was the 1990 regal trophy final against Wigan ,just looked at the attendance over 17,000 , we beat saints 10-9 in the semi final as a 2nd division club that’s some achievement.
Unfortunately my plans have been scuppered as the mrs’ as pulled her back out and is dosed up on diazepam and tramadol so it may be a few more years before I return to headingly . Premier sports it’ll be for me , providing it doesn’t switch off at the last minute again .

The last time i went to headingly was the season when we got relegated in 2003 it used to be one of my favourite away grounds to visit it will have changed a lot since then. If anyone as got any tips for places to park that would be appreciated as for the game bradford seem to be in a bad spot. When they sacked kear things seemed to pickup performance wise but know they are struggling again as for us we need to jump back on the horse nice a quick with a good win. Selection wise i would pick worthington instead of arundel who as been a big disappointment to me you could try him in the second row but garside puts far more effort in so should keep is spot. Lets wait and see how gwaze gets on at the disciplinary he would also be a welcome return but i wouldn't hold my breath on that. As for the score I think we will win 36-16.

With Fax over the years I’ve learned you can never be sure what to expect as the weekend showed but haven’t seen the energy levels from Bradford that London showed and if we get our game heads on and some players back we should have enough.

Re: Summer Bash, Headingley : Fri Jul 29, 2022 12:30 pm  

The squad is out and includes the returning Elliot Morris, Greg Worthington, Kav, Ed Barber and Lachlan Walmsley. It looks a good strong line up and hopefully with a more familiar look we will be able to bounce back from the London loss and bash the bulls. Up The Fax!

Re: Summer Bash, Headingley : Fri Jul 29, 2022 2:55 pm  

Looking at that squad the side i would pick is.

woodburn-hall
saltonstall
tibbs
worthington
walmsley
jouffret
keyes
calcott
moore
murray
kavanagh
barber
fairbank

mason
morris
tangata
wood
That side should be more than good enough to get the job done. I am looking forward to the bash this weekend and will be watching as many games as my legs can stand.
