The most frustrating thing is I only really find out through here as I don’t subscribe to other media platforms. Listen up 94, what’s kicking off?

Two of our best players going to play in the toilet bowl ground next season.

I really hope these cost cutting exercises are so we can secure the shay . If not then if we survive relegation next year is gonna be a long n tough one .

I think Lannon hasn’t preformed this season. He isn’t running in as hard and isn’t make the metres after contact that he was doing last year. No point in keeping players who want out and clearly are not giving their all to the club

Faxlore- Lannon has probably dropped off due to transitioning from full to part time.

Seen this happen time and time again with ex SL props, they come in from the full time environment and are stand out performers, really make a difference, but after a season or so of part time rugby they no longer stand out, and while some still do a good job, they don't have the impact they had initially.

Who?

From what I have seen this season the only forwards I would keep would be 3 who have been injured for much of it in Calcott, AOB, and Douglas. I'm on the fence about Matty Gee, rest can be moved on for mine.

Who is the other player off to Bradford besides Keyes? Hopefully not Woody or Jouffret.

Re: Squad 2024 : Tue Jun 11, 2024 1:14 pm  

Gee is the other one , woody I believe is contracted for another year , whispers of jouffret heading back home especially with the departure of Keyes .

Mick gledhill needs slapping ( but he would probably enjoy it ) I was feeling a bit more upbeat with us getting a few decent lads in . Really struggling not to unleash a volley of abuse at that Roly from grange hill blobendale.

No interest in those who want to go just those who want to stay and any incomings who want to be here.

In connection with that it’s another marker to assess our BoD with, whilst I don’t care they’ll know that others will be less than happy to see players leave and it’s if and who they are replaced with that will tell the story and set the short to medium term goals / future of the club which at best will be Championship or at worst Championship 1 rugby short, medium and long term for us anyway.
