Myles Lawford, Isaac Shaw, and Joe Law are all playing today on DR for Hunslet versus Keighley. Tough game for the Hawks against a Cougars side looking for a seventh win.

The game is live on The Sportsman ko 3pm

Tough job for Law facing Sau and he’s found it tough. Would like to see Lawford get more on the ball as a lot of the play seems to be going to Hunslet regular half.

Law managed to score a try though, Hunslet winning 26-18 with 5 mins left to play.

He did in that second half and it was a pretty solid performance from
all 3 trinity lads.

Close fought games like that are good for our players development. They’ll have got something out of today for sure.

I feel we will probably see Lawford again come Swinton, Dewsbury or Haven.

Law was given a tough time by Sau first half for sure, but fair play to him he stuck to his task well, was helped in the second half by the back row (12) moving out wider to add extra cover. Ran a lovely line and burst onto a short pass for his try
Lawford, I thought, in the first half when Keighley went in front, got frustrated at times, was worrying seeing him head for the sidelines holding his arm but thankfully it appears to have just been a stinger which he shook off and stayed on, had a better 2nd half, backed a break up well and made good meters, put in a beautiful diagonal kick for the last try.
Shaw got through a lot of tackles, and did his fair share of carries, didn't really make that many meters, but he took a lot of his carries from out of the 20m and into a very aggressive Keighley defence against much bigger and more experienced opponents.
Thoroughly enjoyable game to watch

Aside from us being at the top, this is turning out to be an unpredictable league. Hardly the weakest championship at all.

It's unpredictable because there isn't much between most of the teams apart from Wakefield. For the last 10 years are so there have been several tiers - usually 1-2 teams that dominate, then the next 3-4 that are a lot better than the rest. But there's only 1 good team in the league this year and that's why it's the weakest Championship overall for a long time.

That's how I see it.The standard at the top has dropped drastically. That's why we shouldn't get carried away and start thinking some of these players are better than they are.

Hull FC have sent Franklin Pele and Davy Litten on loan to York initially for two weeks.

What's the betting that Pele gets sent off or banned even on loan?
