Lawford in the reserves so doesn't look there's gonna be much change and hoping the players sort it themselves...

Also Myers playing today, so if he's not playing 2 games in 2 days then who plays centre? Not Butler I hope.

Miles may as well get him self off.

If he cant get get a game with the way things are at the minute then hes never going to get a chance. Lilley and Patten both absoute f***ing stealing a wage.

Not sure about Butler in the centres or Jowiit over Lawford in the halves. But hopefully the lads go out and get the 2 points. That’s all that matters today.

Don't get that Line up. Jowitts played FB, wing, Hooker this year and now in specialist position of HB when we've got specialist HB in Lawford doing well in reserves.

Butler at centre doesn't strike me as confident either.

Would have preferred Jowitt having a run at centre and Lawford at HB.

Great start. Let's kick on now and rack up some points to address our abysmal points difference (which could be crucial)

Don't let them back in it and it be 34-32 game.

26-8 at half time. Just about a fair score, although the Swinton try was a breakaway intercept. We really look like a totally different team (again). Yes, I know its "only" Swinton, but the Bulls look energised, enthused, hard tackling, strong running and a really enjoyable game (so far). Even Patton is on one of his good days. Billy Jowett has injected pace into the attacks, and he's also had a cracking game in defence.

‘Only’ Swinton beat Toulouse last week.

Re: Swinton (H) : Sun May 14, 2023 3:02 pm  

Yup, any team can beat any other in this year's championship. But Swinton's 3 wins from 10 matches says they're not exactly tearing up the division.

Re: Swinton (H) : Sun May 14, 2023 3:17 pm  

Bulls 26 only Swinton 26
