Agree Gaskell was MOM by a long way… seemed to relish the leadership role

Joe Law was a revelation … liked what I saw of Smith…

I know it’s only a Boxing Day friendly but I do like when trinity teams finish the last quarter of games strongly… hope we continue that trait!!’


Sleep now as the temperature has finally dropped below 30c

I was really impressed with Smith in the 2nd half, looked the real deal at 7, composed and slick running the team around. Although only a friendly against a mainly youthful team, these games are still really challenging and when our youth came on they completely outplayed Leeds. Really good run out.

Also noticed, lack of penalties

Re: Boxing Day : Mon Dec 26, 2022 2:01 pm  

Really enjoyed it today, and went for the hospitality bit too.

Although you can't read too much into these games, apart from a few clunky passes early doors, I think we went well. Thought Smith and Gaskell controlled things well, and our forwards were good too. On this showing Milky and Fifita wont be missed.

Joe law looked more like the milky bar kid than an RL player
He went well though and had a good game

Enjoyed the game today. Thought we conceded some disappointing tries but equally at times I thought we moved the ball well. Liked the look of Joe Law, lad had a good attitude and got himself stuck in. Possibly some loan time would do him good to get used to open age rugby but definitely one for the future. After being initially a bit worried I think we've got a good balance in the squad this year especially when you add Langi, Tanginoa, Hood, Taufua, Proctor etc

Pretty well summed up in my eyes

He’s a good player in the making. How much he develops physically in the next two years will have a huge bearing on his future. At the moment he’s slight even for his age.
