56 6 for rest a few senior players ready for CAS .....

72 - NIL.

To Who ???

A few first teamers going to be rested so I'd go 10-50

Think it be 100+. could be our record score

64-18

21-20 to Salford.

Oldham beat them 36-0 last week so we have to top that !

Oldham beat them 36-0 last week so we have to top that !

Think salford should try break record CC score START WHERE WE MEAN TOO GO ON ......kids or no kids

You'd hope they put a Gatesheadesque score on them. Not a fan of wholesale resting of first team players, they are professional athletes and unless carrying a knock the best players should be playing each week. We now have the link with Oldham so the old line about testing fringe players for me shouldn't apply any longer. Full strength team all pulling their tripes out to impress there new head coach.

Hope also the club foster a decent relationship with them as Rugby is big down there and there does seem to be a few connections with Salford already, you never know they may unearth a hidden gem from Gloucester RU's overspill.

You'd hope it'd be a pretty big score for the good of our team. It's no fun though watching try after try after try (unless it's against another SL team), a good low(ish)-scoring close game is better every time - although it'd be borderline embarrassing on Sunday considering how much further down the league system they are.

I would prefer a comfortable win. Let us think about the opposition. An embryonic club who are attempting to expand the great game outside the M62 corridor. We don't want their enthusiasm dented at this stage. Now 50 points on Cas would be another thing.....

76-4. You heard it here first.

56-4

I would be very upset if Gloucester scored against us, not saying much for our defence

I think before people start getting giddy about record scores, they need to be clear about what type of team we put out. I do not think the under 20's are playing this weekend, we could have a fair sprinkling of youngsters in the team.

If thats the case then Hope in for him

The record win for the Challenge Cup is something like 136-0 (York v Northumbria Uni a couple of years ago) and the previous record had stood since about 1908. I expect you to win handsomely but that might be setting the bar a bit too high for now.

Here goes:
Evalds
Jodie
Gleeson
Ford
Gibson
Sneyd
Foran
Jewitt
Owen
Gledhill
Emmit
J Walne
Mauro

Hope
A Walne
Tyson

With McGoldrick and Willaims out

McGoldrick if injured and Willaims because he had loads of stitches in his face from last week so leave him till next week

Hope as back up hooker for Owen?

Either way whatever happens I am delighted so many kids are going to play! Get in. Alan doing what Vievers baulked on last year against Whitehaven! Rugby genius and only strengthens his position

134-0...?

Good luck!
