FT 46-12

Good comeback is that against an in form side. Well done to Matty for another MoM performance

Wel done,some excellent performances.Like the look of Johnstone & Beharrell at half back. Whitmore had another good game .

Really impressed with Johnston. Chuck Boas and Taulapapa in and we've got some really nice options. I'm really starting to feel the club has made some very good decisions. Praise is due to Sam Smeaton also. He's been excellent in every game. Good to see a lad from the right side of the river performing.

Thought Foster did well in the middle & good to have Bravo back ,Wilkinson did well .



Hope the 2 big guys are ok for next Sunday , hope Douglas is back also..

That game showed that it matters where on the pitch the game is played....

The first 25 mins virtually all in our half and worse still in our twenty.

All about the Skolars, lucky to hold them to 12 points.

Second half we reversed that and dominated..

Maybe Horne is coming to see that Ben Johnston is the ace in the pack and has got to be where the action is....

I liked that we had Beryl, Boas ,Johnston and Taulapapa all on at the same time.

We had the dominance to allow it though..

It can't be all sweetness and light though...this is me after all.

I thought we were poor with our forward moves on their line in the second half...it looked like we had not got any moves practiced...

Skolars would have loved those chances....

A fantastic effort though when we eventually woke up on 25 mins and VERY entertaining.

Just read on the Cleggbook about two injuries in the forwards. Who and how bad did the injuries look?

Peltier & Mudoti. Leg injuries , both stayed in their kit , not risked again .

Agreed. Being without Douglas, Peltier and Mudoti is asking a lot. 3 of the best forwards in this league.

What is wrong with Douglas , was playing well .

I did hear you say my name Rob as I left..

By the time I looked up you had walked on.

Douglas should be available again next week



Peltier seemed to be walking the better of the other two at the end, Mudoti was limping quite badly

2nd half was very enjoyable, team has more go forward when Ross is in at dummy half, when the ball gets moved quickly you have plenty of speed to make the most of it, some really good support play.

My only criticism is that for some reason you like to move the ball to tour right edge when it’s more natural to go to the left, when you’re in the oppositions 20 it’s pretty obvious where the balls going, I know you put 40+ unanswered points on the board but to be honest london were a very poor team and didn’t really offer much in either attack or defence, the 2nd half showed what they were really made of.

Hopefully be at the hunslet game, don’t think we’re allowed in to Wales yet but if the weather was anything like this weekend I’d be tempted to make the trip if we’re allowed

My dad's called Brian too!

Pretty familiar pattern to games like this. The lesser side puts up resistence for the first 40 minutes and then finds it difficult later on.



Losing Richard Wilkinson from full-back didn't help the Skolars but as soon as there was more room for our playmakers we looked far the better side.



With Beharrell, Boas, Whitmore, Johnston, and Misi we've got 'defence openers' all over the field. We've not seen so much flare for a long time.



As long as the forwards keep getting on top we should score plenty of points. To win the league we probably need to improve defensively. Barrow have conceded 62 points, Workington 94 points, and the Dons 126.

There's a player a lot of people mention as a key man, and I just don't see it at all, he'd be the only change to the regular 13 I'd make. I won't name names publicly cause it wouldn't be fair on him, particularly as I seem to be in a minority

Perhaps it would be good for folk to name their strongest 17 and their preferred starting 13...

That way players can't feel too slighted...

I could have a go, thing is I work from the point of view of who I would play only as back up, but with an open mind if they showed promise...

Tricky one. You first Brian!

I have one too (and quite correctly, I wouldn't name names publicly either).
