At LSV this Sunday.

I expect us to win, but the margin depends on just how many Warrington players they pick! Hopefully the defence stays as solid as it has been and the attack will start to click.

Swinton 10-26 Eagles.

They `re NOT Warrington players but Swinton players, who they signed despite NOT having a pot to empty.

I see.

Ok explain it to me then!

This is becoming quite boring but here we go......Swinton lost 10 players last season. some to 'Better' clubs such as Armstrong to yourselves and players to London, Halifax and leigh. 3 other first teamers took up work opportunities in Australia and a number retired due to age or work commitments. We have therefore taken on deals for one year (same as all our other players) 6 of the warrington under 23s who, due the restructure if the super league were no longer eligible to play for the unders and were surplus to the requirements of the first team. In addition we signed on the remaining players from the previous year and a few new players such as ballard from barrow and Barlow from Halifax.

All of the above is nothing to do with the dual registration system though is clearly a direct link to our partnership with warrington. Under DR we have borrowed 3-4 players for each match this season (less than many others - York had 5 last week). Woods, McCarthy and laithwaite then o'brien McCarthy dwyer and laithwaite last week.

As o'brien has gone to cas for a month and woods and McCarthy look to have made the first team then the swinton team for this week is pretty easy to predict should Ashton/Aston actually be bothered Only problem he may have is predicting stand off as ianson broke a finger pre season...

Anyway good luck for Sunday, you should run out comfortable winners....but I hope not.

I know all that what I don't know is when you play
warrington first team players/internationals - how does it fit in your salary cap - we all know you have no brass ???

You know that for certain do you....after all we have spare capacity in the budget due to the players who have left as has been explained to you and quite well in my opinion. Good grief how much do you think these kids were on at Warrington, get a grip.

Also every one of them who have signed were given the option to sign for us or go else where.

Charlie will be at the LSV on Sunday to watch the game , as a Nuetral or is it Neutered ?

i think it will be a very good flowing rugby Match , it seems my Feathered Friends are all wanting me to tip the Lions to win

, so i will , Swinton 24 v Seagulls 18 .

Get back to spouting shhhiiittee on TotalRL...

I think I was talking about the Super league players and internationals - who pays them - no doubt the kids aren't going to bother your salary cap -thats what we all though duel reg was about, not giving super league teams the opportunity to run a reserve side in the championship! But if thats what you want to support !!!!

Ermm struggling to find the correct response.......ahh i know, Prick.

Ladies, please.

Come on Marshy , Charlie has tipped a Swinton win



.

Ah - I think there's a misunderstanding here.

Generally, the $uperleague side continues to pay their contract. That's why DR is so attractive to cash-strapped, struggling clubs.

So I see Charlie mate, let's just hope your correct.

Which is why it is so wrong - how can you have a salary cap and pay players who are on more than your total income ... on loan it farsical

Couldn't agree more.

Well Charlie was wrong again

, though i thought Swinton played very well in the first half and bombed about 3 tries , they just got very tired in the end , a good result for you guys , but NOTHING for the Leythers to get worried about .

Not until the playoffs!



Thought we were excellent second half after a very average first half. Swinton looked very handy with ball in hand, but equally suspect in defence when our attack started to play to its potential. That's what comes with young lads and a lack of team cohesion from not knowing who's going to play from one week to the next. Thought Tyrone McCarthy was distinctly average at best, some might speculate he didn't want to be there.

Special mention for Pete Green from me today, Mr Reliable but not often someone who stands out from the crowd, today he constantly made good yards as well as being the usual tackling machine. Also brilliant performances from Tom Armstrong and Dominic Brambani, Armstrong looks like a top, top signing.

Dont know why Tom Armstrong left leigh but personally speaking i was gutted when he did.
With the right surroundings and coaching he's easily a sl player.

Aye, I was chuffed when we signed him and he's turning out to be everything I expected and more.

He's causing the camera-man a lot of problems. Keeps sidestepping off the screen.

Just what I needed after a particularly bad week for me - don't get sciatica at any time really but especially in winter. It can be agony, so thanks team - really cheered me up.

No thats Mr Green Championship man of the week!!!!

Yeah, he had a great game, didn't he ?
