Good post VL, however, i think Fev just have the edge over us atm but, as the season progresses, i think/hope we are in a stronger/better position to do the business when it matters, hopefully (without any key injuries).

Agreed that it is a very fine line between us right now Cokey. I would not feel 100% confident that we could beat them but do believe we just have the edge with a fully fit team (and that could be the difference come playoff time). That said I didn’t get where I am today by knowing lots about our great game
(Also, come playoffs we have to have an eye to winning the games to get us to the final, which I don’t take for granted with a few teams that can be strong on the right day)

Evening fellahs (& lasses). Irish chap came into Bongsers gaffe today, a Wigan fan who we usually only see over from Ireland when The Pies are in a Grand Final (as it happened he'd flown over for 'the derby'). Knowing Bongser's allegiance of old, he asked whether Fev were a worry and if DB would wave his cheque book at that problem. Answers:
a) yes of course
b) he is already doing so when the right players become available in the opinion of the management that he has put in place - rather than a scatter gun approach.

For Bongser no panic buy on a prop, if a loan prop is not available, others from the pack can & will step up to the plate. Sounds like Green & Ioane should be back in time for the next Fev game - and it won't be being played on a water polo "pitch".

Up The Comics!

.....but for now London Broncos - the title of the thread Bongser reminds himself!

Men against boys. Reynolds pass when he came on to Inu must be a try of the season. Exceptional pass and an excellent individual try. The rest must have done him good. Forwards look the part and Mellor is again on another level.

The future looks bright.

Evenin' Atomic, hope you're well?

You're right, Joe has been excellent this season but he took a knock latish on and looked hurt before he even hit the deck. He always invites a lot of hammer, takes it and shrugs it off, so to see him still massaging his shoulder five minutes on is a concern. Thought with the scoreline the way it was that he should have been subbed and spent the last few minutes on the physio table.

Hoping for good news soon but Lammy likes to play stony faced poker so we'll probably only know when the team sheet for Sheffield (I) comes out.

Great result today. Working from early this morning though, so couldn’t watch the game on Our League.
According to a Facebook poster, Lam stated after todays game that we are signing/announcing one this week and if all goes well another the week after. (The post doesn’t say where or to who that was stated).

Hi VL, If you purchase a subscription, the game is still available to watch for a few days after game day, (Not sure how long though)

I'll add to my comment on the other thread that for a winger playing out of position, Nisbet did well and put in a solid full match performance too, yesterday.

... barring an horrendous knock-on when dropping a dolly pass. Granted it wasn't into the bread basket but even Bongser could have "caught the valve in his dentures".

Agree on the whole Deeeekos, but still think that Tom will sadly be spending a bit more time in the wilderness after Inu's arrival and with "Fire" Brand an everpresent (and worthy of it).
