Could be a close affair in these conditions. Newcastle showed they're very dangerous on a fast track. Squad here - https://t.co/9Iyjjryx5D

From my recollections of them at their place they are a good side.

To be fair and it's view formed from a distance obviously, I'm surprised they've lost as many as they have. That said, and assuming we don't enter the game in the same sloppy, half-arsed way as we did in Coventry, we should beat them. In fact, on a wider note, let's hope that Coventry is going to be the last time that this lesson needs to be learnt this season - though we do seem to have some recurrent memory problems.

Only 18 named this week.
Does that mean we may see a new face or am i reading too much in to it?

Maybe the website author didn't want to take his shoes off in the office to help him count? Feet likely to be sweating and smelly in this heat.

I've just mentioned the website balls up to my colleague and he said the Twitter account earlier put out a 19 man squad. Shortly after he deleted it, and put up the 18 man squad instead. George Milton was the man originally in the post who wasn't in the corrected one.

Wonder if Cas are letting us loan out James Green (I think that's the name - not up on SL anymore )

I agree. I can only presume that they were very much "up for it" when we played them at their place, because if they showed that level of intensity in the rest of their games they'd surely be higher in the table.

Apparently not, the article has been changed again and is back to a 19 man squad with George Milton included again. booty, Elbow...

I can’t understand why Johnson is not in the team,, if a back goes down Johnson can slip straight in there, not sure what this lad has to do to keep his place, and yet we continue to play Gibson who can barely pass wind

Re: Newcastle (H) : Thu Jul 05, 2018 10:06 pm  

Maybe Johnson has a knock. Flanagan played 35 mins for reserves and scored a try. Hallas to miss out tomorrow ?
