Army and Navy in the 9s : Mon Aug 24, 2009 6:42 pm  

How do you boys reckon you will get on against these two? I know a lad who plays for the Army and reckons they will get a right battering from you.

To be fair, this will be more about them two getting one over on each other as they hate each other, will be a good game to watch. The army will want to get revenge for the defeat earlier in the year at Cheltenham 9s, also a good build up to their inter-services in september where all 3 forces play each other...current champs, unfortuantely the Navy!!

I think you lot will march into the 1/4 finals and have a good tie against hudds.

I would expect us to win comfortably against both forces. Huddersfield will be interesting as being a few days after the Challenge Cup final they won't have many senior professionals playing in the 9s.

Wondering who is taking over from Leather through in the fastest man race. I would go for Nick Royle but with Penny/Donald/Ussain Bolt etc entering don't fancy his chances. Bolt is running for Jamaica RL isn't he?
