challenge cup draw : Sun Mar 19, 2017 5:59 pm  

Draw for next round Tuesday morning on 5 live. Home draw versus Salford I predict just for ironys sake. 3.5k today not bad for cup game,notice the normal plebs taking pot shots at attendance conviently ignoring own cup attendances in previous campaigns.

Just looked at odds checker and we are 100/1 same odds as Widnes.wont be taking that bet but interesting. Some strange betting on lance Todd winner so far.

We need the challenge of SL opposition. You can feel the complacency creeping in.

Mostly frustrating again today. Thought Sheffield were a bit grubby 1st half & ref just lost his marbles before HT.

Never had Jordan Cox down as the pantomime villain.

Abdul was very good & our kicking game was much improved.

Shame about Quinlan but Moss needs to come out of his shell & now he'll get his chance.

What's with Greenwood? Injured or not interested? A shadow of last seasons player at the moment.

last season Greenwood and Clarkson played in the inside space created by Walker and Tilse.
Blair and Marsh didn't carry the ball so the second row had more work to do and became more noticeable.
This season Abdul and Ellis are playing in that space so Greenwood and Blair are further out with limited ball.
The vast majority of their work is in defence covering our half's when they go out of position.

Jordan Cox was always more pantomime horse. The kids an idiot and proved today why he'll never make it at the top level, no focus and total lack of fitness (played 10 mins today either side of HT). Saying that our own idiot decided to rise to the bait and copped a yellow.

I thought Greenwood played well today, doing a fair bit of hard work.

Aren't Toronto playing CC "home" games in Manchester?

Maybe I'm being too harsh on Greenwood, he just doesn't seem to be carrying the ball with the same energy.
