Olpherts and Walmsley on the wings with Croft and Pratt at centre. Griffin back in the second row and Pitts at loose, with Doyle starting at hooker and Smith coming off the bench at 9.

Or something than just came out of Carters mouth. Perhaps like a few others that have left or wouldn't sign, it is because the real truth was they were made derisory offers.

Nothing to do with Carter. Ellis and Powell were talking to Kershaw. Powell said that in interview.

Mr Carter will all ways get the blame for everything . Thought some one would have blamed him for the carpet in the Hospitality .Think it is about time some of these so called fans went in the East Stand it is a credit to the hard work that M C ,J M and a few others did .And do not think that it will be a walk back in to the S L .at present as last year it is the forwards carrying the backs and it needs sorting

That is not what he said and I’ve read a number of his interviews.

Your post initially was to suggest that Kershaw wanted to stay in SL. This was in response to a poster saying trinity had let him go suggesting that wasn’t the case. That’s not the same as preferring to be in superleague which any player would. You’ve clearly taken it out of context and decided he only wanted to play SL.

The Biffs Back was right according to the interviews and what’s reported in media and Kershaw interview. He wanted to help trinity back into SL but the offer wasn’t there.

Anyway, this is a thread about Olpherts
Kershaw is not our player.

Wonder if we approached Wigan First to try and get someone in on dual registration ?

True, we should focus on who is here.

I haven’t actually seen much of Olpherts play but from what little I have he seems to run it in well and strong.

Not sure if he will get the nod this week but if he does will be interesting to see how he goes.
