We'll walk it!

Must admit, I'm genuinely shocked that it's full strength. Much more worried now!!

But it's OK as they don't take it seriously.

They've said all along that they're taking it very seriously. I think it's good news. Clearly it hampers our chances of making it 2 in a row somewhat, but I'd rather see where our club game really is compared to the ockers at this point. Neither side can have any excuses for losing this way and it should be as near to a fair fight as we're going to get in this match.

I completely agree, and I'm glad it's full strength. It just makes me nervous!

Strangely, although it could appear that way from the way they follow on, your reply wasn't posted yet when I wrote mine. Please carry on.

Don't worry they'll be plenty of excuses lined up for them when they lose!
