Any guesses on attendance?

Jason said almost 3,000 and was over the moon with the turnout.

With regards to Dixon he is a lot smaller than I remembered. No question he is very quick but light weight.
seem to recall brown brushing him off we ease at one point. Will be interesting how he goes next week.

He's not smaller, but Brown appears to have gained 2 stone since last time these 2 met.

Brown showed his strength (literally) and highlighted that weakness in Dixon's game in the March 2013 game at the Stoop, so that shouldn't be a big surprise. Dixon isn't a powerful player, but hopefully makes up for that in other ways.

Thinking back to the game and our dual reg with Halifax, it would be interesting to think how many of our 'second string' players that played on Sunday would actually get into that Halifax team. not many I would wager.

If he starts playing like last year please take him but if he gets back to how he was no chance
