Does DR only apply to league matches, or can you use these players in the challenge cup?
I mean, are you talking about next Sundays match?

[puppetmaster]

as far as I'm aware you can use them in any match, however if they are players in and out of their SL squads they might prefer not to have them cup-tied

[cran.cran]

Dear HAG, agree with you DR [whatever] is making a mockery of the competition and maing it grossly unfair, one of the reasons why I think RL has lost respect from the general and the sporting public. I know I am off thread here but did Sky not announce about three weeks ago they were switching from Fridays? I never knew the saints catalan game was on because I just didn't bother after hearing that announcement. Did anyone else hear it or have I missed something?

[beermatt42]

I watched it Cran Cran, it's best just checking the radio times for matches on sky, i think they will always have the friday night matches no matter what, i mean there is no football then, so probably a slow day for them.
Not that they care about the fans though, the ones who catch the flu sitting in sub zero temperatures, blizzards etc, and have trouble getting home on the last train.

point im making is they called us for using gardner(and rightly so) and were all high and migthy about the type of players they used,now its all changed so have their opinions and they are justify using briscoe

[whitey12]

using the DR to take your best player out of the team is priceless.

[beermatt42]

Never a truer word spoken Whitey, thats why Widnes are currently losing 12-6.
As a wire fan, i have to say, come on Cassy!
I met some of their fans in the Rodney in Warrington, some good lads and lasses.

[beermatt42]

Might have spoke too soon though.................
Can't Workington take Patrick Ah Van and Rhys Hanbury too?

There fans are all saying it's shocking, BUT the will back anyone who puts on a town shirt. So please tell me who their opinion has changed cos it seems to me they are not happy with this decision even tho BC has failed to train for 2 weeks so their coach is taking the don't train don't play stance. Or does this not sit with your anti workington agenda?

read the thread again quite a few who are saying no problem with him playing ,some of who called us.I said at the time gardner played established SL players should not be playing on DR and it still stands,as one of their own says they have now lost any moral high ground in the DR debate

on another note they call us deluded yet there the ones saying stack and phillips are better than anything widnes have to offer.Thats funny havent seen either of theirs playing in SL yet

[beermatt42]

I've seen Shaun Briscoe play in superleague, nothing much to speak about, apart from his truely ugly face.
I thought Patrick ah Van and Rhys Hanbury were their man of the matches, not that Ah Van or Hanbury are any prettier mind, and you haven't seen the state of their fans lol.
Wire til i die.

[beermatt42]

well done Cassy!

[rockerlad]

Could see Philips playing super league but he has a very well paid job at sellafield

[town4me]

Its pretty simple BKM. BC hasn't trained through injury and we are bringing in a FB to replace him. I didnt say anything about haven bringing Gardner in. This is just your usual anti town agenda.

[brett kinghams mullet]

According to BC not injured just not picked,anti town you bet
