Good win last night at HKR. 12-16.

Great to see Tom back. Strong side and Leroy was stand out.

Faiumu,Finnegan and Fulton did not play.

Good result that, makes up for our academy lads getting a bit of a battering aganist their "kids" last week.

Did Finnegan take a knock on Saturday in the warm up? He was warming up in shorts etc and Jacko was looking as if he wasn't in the XVII but then at kick off Jacko played and Finnegan missed out. Last minute change of plan by Nathan?

At 7

Scored a try. Goal kicking was left to Leroy.

Gave the team a better structure. Just needs to be more assertive - he has the skills.

Sound game back after a long lay off.

The Prawn Sandwich eating group of Vice Presidents were given printed Team sheets in our boxes well before KO and the team on the sheet was the team that played.

Just player rotation. With Tom back everyone is fit! Not many clubs can say that.

we could 'rest' 3/4 guys who played versus the quins and still have an equally strong team versus the celtics!
