Why blame sky? Its SL made the call and a sensible call play all 3 games at same time
And you really cant be surprised that they want to televise our game, it's the most important one in the round of games.

Think you might find Sky tweeted early today that our game would be moved then later somebody at the RFL woke up with a blinding flash of common sense. Treasure that because it doesn't often happen.

I am expecting us to have a good following at Belle Vue, despite it being a Friday night.
I must say we had good numbers at Hull KR.

Re: Wakey : Sat Sep 07, 2019 9:51 pm  

Think you will find the first report stated Super League had moved the game then sky chose our game to televise
It does make sense to play em all at the same time, stops any accusations of collusion or skullduggery so not sure why it's a surprise. It's a pain, means I cant go but hey

Does anybody know if the club is running a supporters coach to the game?

Re: Wakey : Sun Sep 08, 2019 6:32 pm  

we are all asking that question and hope it is yes

hopefully they will answer one way or the other tomorrow to give us all time to book and get time from work

Re: Wakey : Sun Sep 08, 2019 8:23 pm  

I doubt that they will run a coach. When they have in the past it has not gone very well.

We need to work on our right side defense all week..... They had a field day last time put for the last 15 minutes.

We had them at 42-6 after 40 last timeout, meaning in the 2nd half of the first game and the First of the second, we totally dominated them Problem is that the last 15 minutes against them at Ealing they trounced us, walking in 28 points in very quick order.
We need to start well and take every point on offer and run their big forwards around the park to tire them out. Weather forecast is dry and 17 degrees....not sure what our completion rate was on Friday, but I recall it was 94% in the first half and we will need that discipline this week (and a strong referee)
