Who would Leicester choose out of Glasgow and Plymouth? If Glasgow is chosen and Poole get Plymouth, think I'd rather Poole come 3rd, hope to get through QF and face Leicester! But might change my mind yet, depends how we do at Plymouth on Tues. It's all to play for. I'll be surprised if Poole don't find an Aussie zinger to replace Ablitt. Glasgow look solid all round especially at reserve with Hume and Bailey, Bailey massively improved. However Cook isn't the Craig of old and Brennan and Basso in that outstanding on occasions but average next match phase of their careers. Not the strong team they were with Rasmus in it. Leicester have strong home team but need a number 7 and Thompson away form us an achilles heel If Plymouth can get MPT and Hans fit and Gilkes back and keep Guest or even RR for Kennett if he's second in averages would be very strong though carrying a reserve Redcar look massive dangers to me, Edwards is a revelation chipping in paid 6 or 7 up at number 2, and Jenkins strong at reserve. If they click are dangers. Can't decide Monarchs or Scunny 6th place, probably just Monarchs. Certainly lot more interesting than the 6 team borefest 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately its the way it has been for many years though would doubt Castagna or Fredrickson could pull this and keep their team place.

Mr Blobby Posted July 17, 2022 Report Share Posted July 17, 2022 Going by the 4 points today seems he’s still not very fit. anyway very impressive performance on the road. A point a never thought we’d get close to but we’ll done to the boys for sticking in and pulling it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarjaent at Edinburgh and even more impressive Connor Bailey at Poole, who is on a 5 point average!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok changed format from top flight 4 team playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't remember the playoffs last year then Steve? I had inkling of a rule that we couldn't pick Glasgow last year. Apparently in Prem even 1st place doesn't get a pick anymore. They just play 4th in SF? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the difference between this and other situations you might believe to be similar, is that there is absolutely no doubt that Sam is injured. He has a broken bone in his foot. He is trying to miss as few meetings as possible. If he was not injured, he would not have missed any matches. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what I would do. Aye, as long as he's pocketing enough zloty to pay for nappies and the mortgage, who cares about his contractual duties in the UK? Conscious much? I like the news snippet on the Monarchs website. Says something like, "he'll miss KL and Leicester and have treatment this weekend. He won't miss any more meetings." Perhaps they should have gone with, "he'll miss KL and Leicester and have treatment on Saturday before returning to action in sunny Polska 24 hours later." Wonder what sort of reaction that would've gleaned. Poland is famous for its 'gun to the head' policy. Perhaps we should do the same? If Mr Campbell wishes to purchase a rifle, I'm happy to provide the character reference... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
