I was told earlier, that there is currently no press officer at the club, that could be the reason why, or maybe they just want to focus on the 2024 squad, and either no suitable player is available at the moment or no deals have been reached.

Going back to Johnstone and McMeeken for 2025, I wonder how many other clubs are looking at 2025 squads. I dont recall us ever doing that before

Friendly or not it was a very poor second half , You can say there was changes, but it looked like a team with no structure , and no penetration in the spine Lot of work to do Saw the same as last year

We had neither of our halves playing. Of course there was no penetration.

Did we win anything the year we battered them by 40 on Boxing Day?

Friendlies mean nothing.

Defo lots of work to do, but that's a constant.

I was thinking more that there wasn't many highlights to put out. Each of the tries have been shown but nothing much to string together. The full game is available for any masochists out there.

The structure was outstanding in the first half.

We didn’t play out starting halves.

Odd post.

Strange post indeed.

Second half was a fully changed back line before the tries, positions swapped and some costly errors in attack by inexperience.

Jowitt off, Walmsley to FB, Franco to FB, Croft to wing, Law to wing. Griffin to centre, with Cozza off too in the middle we just fell victim to changes that wouldn’t occur in a league game ordinarily.

The first 40 was closer to the team we expect and it was well drilled.

Just been reported that we have rejected an offer from Hull KR for Gale.

I think it's more a principle thing. And can see Gale being on coaching team in 2025 too
