Good to see the club hit 7.5K pass sales, personally know people who still need to get theirs sorted. If they can get to 8k I think that would be a great effort taking our recent form and that money is tight for most at the moment.

Considering the mood of the fanbase towards the end of last season, I think it's an amazing achievement, getting in TS and a new back room team could be Pearson's best move since he took over in 2013.

If the club to have achieved somewhere close to 6K after the way last season ended in June and the awful performances following on from the previous season I'd have said that would have been an achievement.
However for the club to have reached over 7.5K all whilst fans still raw from the recent failures and the added cost of living increases both the club and fans should be applauded for their efforts.
Think it shows that by bringing in an experienced Head Coach with a proven track record and a new back room team it has re galvanised both the club internally and the fans. Its still early days and no guarantees but AP this time hasn't gambled on an assistant to learn as they go so fingers crossed the changes made this off season will bear fruit soon enough.

Balmforth loaned to Newcastle, doesn’t say how long for. Should help him playing at a higher level than academy

Should be good for him playing regularly at a higher level than reserves.

We've got plenty of cover at 9.

No Sao against Wakey. Out with a dead leg. He was the only glaring omission from the squad

Re: Pre season. : Fri Feb 03, 2023 12:18 pm  

Seems Wakey have named a bit of an experimental squad against us. https://twitter.com/WTrinityRL/status/1 ... K2v-Q&s=19

Shame that Sao misses out, would like to think he will be ready for Round 1.

Agreed and whilst I'd have liked to have seen him take part on Sunday no point risky making things worse just for a friendly as its not like we don't know what we get from Ligi, rather he be 100% for round 1.
