Anthony Bowman : Thu Jun 11, 2009 9:42 pm  

I know it has been mentioned on here before, but why don't we loan Anthony Bowman out to Donny to give him some game time? He is just sat on the sidelines at the moment and needs to be playing to develop . . .what do we all think?

Will a 17 year old lad be able to travel to Donny 3 times a week for training then match days? Somehwere more local might be better


But i do agree!!

would be a good idea i think needs to get some game time.

He certainly needs to be playing.

He is one for the future thats for sure, it would be good if he could get some game time for us at some point but to be honest that doesnt look like happening this season.
My choice would be Keighley or Dewsbury not far to travel and would be playing with decent players that should help him improve as a player

He would be better off playing for us, but since we don't have any space at the moment then maybe Batley would be the better option. He would gain better experience playing our level of rugby then a division below. Plus he would gain from playing under karl harrison.

Yeah I think Batley would be a good option, not sure he would get in at Dewsbury! Sitting on the sidelines without any game time is no good for any player nevermind a developing one! Think he would come back an even better player!

next year he will be getting game time with u20 team, but think could do with some game time now somewhere.

The lads just finished an amateur season. Give him a break.

And who are we to impose a player on the likes of Batley?

What about Swinton ? Don't they need a stand off for a few weeks ?
