I see that Omari Caro scored at Hemel today for Gateshead. I wish him well.

Isn't he coming back from injury? I think he's been playing for KR when fit

Re: The future is brighter up north : Sun Apr 14, 2013 4:12 pm  

I think he was dropped after the Salford game and has been at gateshead since.

Just back from the game and quite a thriller at the end... Hemel Stags 21-20 Gateshead Thunder. Omari Caro scored Thunders first try but didn't get much ball but surprised he was playing (saw him on the sidelines at our HKR defeat too - so wasn't sure if he was injured or dropped) although Shane Grady played in Stags first home game. Broncos Mike Bishay played well for the Stags as did Mason Caton-Brown but hardly SL standard.

Well done Hemel, showing the Skolars (who are now bottom) how to do it!

Entertaining game at Hemel. Gateshead kept coming back. Missed a drop goal from distance near the end at 20-20. Hemel set up Bishay on the next set to put one over under the posts. Bishay is the main player. He looks good and directs the play. Caro didn't look the happiest.

Caro was terrible today. Looked totally disinterested. His team mates must have been spitting chips when he turned over possession on early tackles.

Good game though

Caro was dropped for defensive errors. Too many London juniors just dont have a strong enough all round RL game for SL.

Bang on the money. Only LMS and Clubb are at that level at the moment, others way off, mentioning no names from our current squad.

I went to Hemel today too. How nice it is to see a team play for 80 mins. and come away with a victory for a change.
Come on you Stags!
