Skolars v Whitehaven this Saturday : Wed May 10, 2017 8:59 am  

Those of you who will be missing their RL fix could get down to New River and hopefully see the likes of Callum Bustin, Ben Pointer and Sid Abebiyi turning out for the home side. Skolars are going well and would love some more vocal support to help cement their play off place.

Will Rocko not be running out for them??

Not in their matchday squad.
Pearce-Paul is though, along with the 3 mentioned in the original post.

Rociqa seems to be a mystery. His face does not fit and for some reason he can't be dual reg. Got to say the recent Aussie recruitment Eliab and Rociqa are both underwhelming despite being nice guys.

It is odd. Junior was sat on the rolling benches watching the Oldham game with Andy Ackers & Eddie Battye (plus Lewis Foster?) so wasn't involved Skolars away draw with Donny after being announced as a duel-reg player with them on 4th May. He's definitely not in Saturdays 19 either...

Apparently the RFL refused to allow the registration. Not sure why.

Eliab played for PNG last week.

Tough game at Skolars yesterday; rather closer than the scoreline indicates (some "interesting" refereeing involved).

Bustin continues to impress. He's a big unit of a little raw. Pointer continues to impress. Can't understand why he didn't get a go while Ackers was out. Paul played full back. Didn't do anything wrong, but I felt he was less effective there. Perhaps a lack of experience. Sid wasn't used effectively this week in attack but put in in defence.
