Decent win and could have got some payback not conceding a penalty off Struijk.
Negatives first, sorry.
Messlier`s dead ball kicks need to find the man more.
Piroe on a couple or so occasions I have to say if that was Bamford I personally would be slating him.
Rutter brilliant at creating but his finishing needs some work.
Positives the defence solid across the park, Summerville and James scaring the pants off defenders and the cameo by Joseph looks promising.
And finally when are Ipswich going to implode ffs? Читать дальше...
When I first played rugby at secondary school back in the early sixties we were always taught to tackle round the legs and by and large that was the ethos in the senior game. Above waist tackles were a bit of a rarity. Over the years tackles got higher and higher until round the neck and upper body tackles appear to be the norm. It was much more exciting to see a player perform a flying leg tackle than to watch three or more defenders reaching out to grab the opposite player's collar or hug their shoulder. Читать дальше...

CGP MEP Have become a shirt sponsor with Wakefield Trinity, they’re not new but significantly they’ve increased their sponsorship value and have made much of it on their home website.
I say it’s interesting because they’re a development company whose owner is a Wakefield lad and supporter and they specialise in large developments like stadia

and professional training facilities like this at Arsenal

I will buy it i always do but i do get some of the criticism it is getting. And then you add in the wonders that these figure hugging shirts have on my love handles it is a win win.

Tom Johnstone his concussion was caused by banging his head on the floor I think. You can't protect players from everything some concussions are just accidental.

And as long as fans are happy to accept that modicum of common sense is acceptable to them when a decision made goes against there team!
It's going to be painful at the start, lots of players fans and refs struggling to adapt and accept

The RFL have been forced into this change because they couldn’t find an insurance company willing to cover the game without it! There are around 40 Sports Insurance companies and just 1 was willing to cover the game after The RFL outlined the rule changes. No doubt the threats of legal actions hasn’t helped but it’s the insurance situation that’s driving the rule changes,

Liquidated damages have to be proven - it’s not a straight cutting of a £10k cheque every week.
Normally the builder and client cut a deal on variations etc if relations are still cordial.
