Isn't O'Connor in his last season with us and out on loan though?

I hope they keep O'connor. Mega consistent and never lets you down. As others have said, he looks to have bulked up in the off season. I think he should model his game on Ryan Hinchcliffe who was always a small forward, but had a great career for the Storm.

That’s an interesting shout. He seems to have plenty of RL smart to me and an excellent attitude.

I think there is something to be said for "sons of...". It's not just the genetics, but they've seen what it takes to reach the top in the sport.

Some time on loan this season and regular game time will do him the world of good.

Seems a good game yesterday, glad Max got a couple and it certainly looked competitive!

Judging by yesterday, I’ll be surprised if Mustapha and O’Connor don’t return from Bradford Bulls quite quickly. Loans are recallable after two weeks into the championship season.

On to FC and I’m expecting quite a test in this one with probably our strongest squad to date, plus with it being the first week of Dual Registration and loans, we will be without Mustapha, O’Connor, Johnson for starters to Bradford & maybe Broadbent, Edwards and Tindall to Featherstone.

Walters & Holroyd injured.

Nice to see the Bulls banner in support of Rob on Sunday. "Rivalry aside".

I'm not sure Martin has done enough in pre-season although I'm only going by the games.

I suspect we might see Mellor in that left SR spot (his more natural side). Again don't think Sutcliffe is fit enough/had chance to show enough yet to get past Briscoe at left centre (and of course it's Tom's testimonial so he's a bit of a shoe-in!).

Any news on Walters injury?

I'd be a bit surprised if Fev use those players on DR in week 1. Maybe Broadbent if McDermott wants to use him from the start and/or if Pickersgill is still injured and Hall is moved to full back. Joey Leilua arrived yesterday and I don't know if he comes into consideration as soon as this weekend for one centre spot but Josh Hardcastle had a cracking game against Wakefield. If Pickersgill is still injured and Leilua isn't considered ready then Broadbent might be selected.

I would see Edwards as being behind Broadbent if we do need anyone and Tindall hasn't been mentioned as a DR possible as far as I'm aware yet and he won't get a game if Gale and Briscoe are fit.

He looked to have hurt his shoulder on Sunday. Maybe they're waiting for scan results?

Can I pay on turnstile on Sunday , or get ticket from office before game? I refuse to do anything online in principle! I want the flexibility of just turning up…

Bit weird refusing to do stuff on line...

But anyway, yes you can pay on the day at the turnstiles, but it's not cash, contactless payments only.

You're not against them aswell though are you?

Prefer cash! If the bank decides to freeze my account I’m screwed…..!
Thanks for the info. This game falls between two working shifts for me, so wife will relieve me of childcare duties…!

Also where’s best place to park? Been a while since I got to a game……

What you been up to to get your bank account frozen ?



Squad released- when was the last time we had 1-17 in a squad for a game?

What a refreshing change after the last few years

Plenty of road parking i always park up by the new wetherspoons

You refuse to do anything online.
Apart from post on forums....

A cashless society, where humanoid creatures stagger around waiting for their next 3 monthly covid ‘fix’ scares me ……

Not sure if mentioned elsewhere but just seen the game is being shown on Our League for those that can't get there in person, £4.95 today, rising to £10 tomorrow:

Getting hammered by the ref but first impression is that right hand edge of Newman and Fuzzy could be very good

What was wrong with that hit?

Wasn’t the hit, i think Austin took someone off the ball.

The hit was a belter, unfortunately the hull player hit his head on the ground i think

Unless i saw it wrong?

Thought fus was binned?

What happened to Newman?
