It's an easy stereo type to level at us, and clearly not true, a bit like Leigh fans being over confident, and their team playing like thugs, surely this can't be true either?

Ha-ha, I was just thinking something similar. I hope the encounter didn't traumatize Maurice and friends to much.
I've had similar experiences and it can be quite overpowering, especially when they haven't washed their black and white shirts for a month.

Think I read in HDM today that Chessie thinks he will be ready for week 1 of the middle 8's. Would be brilliant news if true!

Re: Mitch Allgood : Thu Jul 30, 2015 4:24 pm  

Getting Allgood back would be like a new signing, assuming he can get back to the form he was showing until his injury. Great player.

Re: Mitch Allgood : Thu Jul 30, 2015 4:31 pm  

Chester was quoted in League Weekly on Monday as saying Allgood is on course to return to the squad for the second round of the middle 8. He is lifting weights & doing strength work on his shoulder, he has some markers to hit before he can do contact work but is expected on the training field next week.

Also said that Puletua could yet remain with Rovers in 2016, Chester is going to have a chat with him about delaying his retirement. Sounded like Chester is going to try to talk him into it he said he believes he is fit enough to do another year if his heart is in it.

All of which suggests that Allgood has not been de-registered and that somehow Puletua does not count on the quota or non fed.

Would be good to get Mitch back for the 8's, I'd feel a lot better with him, Tony P, Walker, Green and Greenwood as props. Plus Tony P can go 2nd row as well.

I'd keep Puletua for 2016 if possible.

I agree, he has certainly been one of our better forwards in the short time he has been here, in fact he's got better with each game imo.

Back against Leigh according to the Wail. Massive boost if true. Our best prop on his day and one of the best in the comp IMO.
