Was not at the match, Cannot justify a 300 mile round trip for a friendly but...

Giving the missing bodies and a short bench (Olstrom, Aiye, Holiday, Howarth and Parker to come in) a 8 point loss at this stage of the season is not a major concern unless people allow it to get into their heads.

More interested in how the new players showed up and are there any rumblings on getting another prop in on duel reg

It is a long season!

Did ok thought Callum and billsborough looked good together, can’t really judge on a field like that shocking to only have 15 players but with players coming in our strongest 17 will be a match for anyone in league that is though if we can get them on pitch

a good run out,defensively we looked much improved, only 15 named so some lads had to put in the minutes today, Hewer played his typical "im the ref so its my show".... all in all a decent performance

Can't believe how much common sense seems to be on here this afternoon. Couldn't make the game however only 15 players in a newly put together squad playing their 2nd game against a team in a higher league, the result doesn't concern me. Pleasing to hear people saying some players looked good and imo so far so good in terms of where we are with what we have got.

Im sure Carl and the BoD are looking at more additions to bolster our small squad

We’re begging for money to get players over to do their job,,, we find the money for floodlights from??????

Do you ever have a positive word for the club? You threw ya toys out of your pram last week about getting beaten by a super league team and now we’ve been competitive and come close to a team in the division above, you’ve chucked the rattle from the crib again and moaning about summat else.  Tell yah what Marra, with supporters like you, who needs flaming enemies.  Again, I say to you get a grip

Floodlights won’t be needed soon with lighter nights not far off. At least they stopped on  :D

Quite a few positives so not duly concerned. What did disappoint me was our discipline. Gave away loads of penalties for stupid infringements. On the whole reasonably happy despite defeat

Agree if we had a full team we would have won was a good game considering the conditions a lot to look farward to
