Im definitely going this Year only to see what changes Furner is trying to implement.
A few beers with friends a new HB partnership and some youngsters getting game time that'll do for me as long as they have a dig.

Even as an opposition fan I'm going to be interested what impact and how Furner has you playing. Granted we're only 3 weeks or so into preseason and most of that will be taken up with fitness work, rather than on-field attacking/defensive structures, it'll be interesting to see where you're heading.

As for bragging rights, obviously it's good to come away with a win - rather than a 40- 0 trouncing but we are where we are in preseason. Tbf though if you come on here after the match for the last decade, there's always plenty of posters from both side giving it the big one, depending who won. Especially when you lot used to turn us over with a load of youngsters in.

For all the blasé attitudes, it's not that many seasons ago that toys were chucked out of the pram following a defeat. Evidence of McDermott's shambolic coaching, apparently.

As always, I'd rather we won. Looking forward to it but as of now, another sloe gin's in order. Merry xmas all including wakey fans

That was all down to the build up bigging up the game after a dismal 2016 then nobody could be arsed on the day & in the aftermath dismissing it as a training run.

Is any radio station broadcasting this game guys?

Not missing anything those not here. Poor quality, no match sharpness as you would expect yet. Terribly inconsistent reffing. Not much to say.

Not a great game of Rugby league but it was never gonna be realistically both teams only been in pre season for about a month or So but valuable game minutes for players coming up to the season. Imo there are players in our squad we should just release if clubs do not come in for them pay them off, players such as Mullally, L.Sutcliffe, Walters and Ormandroyd ( the latter two didn't feature today but would not have impacted the game what so ever). And I do not know how we can justify giving L.Briscoe a 3 year contract he is Championship at best, We have good young players in Handley, Golding and Newman who all deserve more of a chance than him. Nice to win the game today though. MOT!!! ALAW!!!!
