10 players where missing from the Widnes u18s.Good show with alot of u16s playing.

Very unlikely that 10 were missing seeing as Widnes named 20 players on the team sheet, your not telling me the 18's have a squad of 30+

Guys why you both talking about absentees??..lets concentrate on 34 talented lads on that field of play and applaud them all for a fantastic game of rugby served up for us to watch !!..not the best defences on BOTH sides but hey im not complaining as it made for a great game.Cas punished our mistakes whereas we didnt punish their's,bring on the next games i say

We have alot injured who are quality like Tom Gilmore,Adam Lawton,Alex Brown and Lewis Whitty to name a few.Anyway who cares was a open game and more to come from Widnes.Been in Superleague will attract more talented youngsters to Widnes than been in the Championship.Look forward to next year and i am only joking with you mate.

Anytime the all conquering Widnes academy lose there is always an excuse. It was the same when Salford beat em by a similar scoreline a couple of weeks ago.

So what you are saying is that players you will attract will be other teams don't want or need. You only have to look at how much outsourcing wolves have to do to be contending team.
