Should be a good test for 40 minutes at least on Sunday.
Both coaches playing pretty much full strength with Arthur confirming Gannon will start and play 20 minutes maybe coming back on later in the second half.
Also saying "the kids will play the second half".

To be fair while it might not be part of the spirit of a testimonial I'm not driving up from Nottingham for a friendly so to be able to chip in is a positive. Would definitely have paid more though. Will look into the other fund raising things. He's been a great player for the team. First half should be interesting.

2 40/20 attempts within the first 20! wow haven't seen that for a while!

Good strong opening 25 with some challenging attacking kicks , then it's turned a bit Leeds like, discipline, errors and the injuries to sivo and Jenkins. Biggest stand out is how strong mik is looking. Been the best prop out there.

Sivo injury aside, we’ve looked pretty good. Gannon dealt with their big physical threats and I thought Palasia was very good, which in turn meant Ackers was better. Discipline still needs a bit of cleaning up.

What's Jenkins injury please? Sivo one is pretty annoying when we didn't need a winger, let alone an overseas one.

He was concussed

Injuries aside a very pleasing performance I thought. Jack probably played his way to a bench spot. Gannon very good. Conner good again. If there’s one player that did disappoint a bit it’s Lisone. Needs to cut out the errors because he’s got people breathing over his shoulder now.

What was Sivos injury? Hopefully not too bad
