Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted July 23, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted July 23, 2022 Good work out and what a finish. I love Morley and his range of passing. Hes going to be a big player for us this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As it stands, I think we're good for the play offs. We're going to absolutely batter some teams, and get ground down to draw/defeat by others. Like last season only better 😃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy9322 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 As others have mentioned pace up top and on the wings is a concern, thought MJ got caught out so many times trying to jump on the player and was easily played around. Dapo, Bradley and Sadlier are the positives from that performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter MickyD Posted July 23, 2022 Site Supporter Share Posted July 23, 2022 Interesting use of black sponsor logo and club badge on a black shirt. I'm sure the sponsor will be getting his moneys worth from that deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barrycowdrill Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Very very good work out that. They asked all the “right” questions of us given its Pre season. Not many will press us so high and fast so a really good test for that back 5 MJ and Morley. Hopefully some lessons in there.. Dapo looks a bigger threat up top than he does as a 10. More room and the game is simpler for him. said weeks & weeks ago Lee would be our main man as a 10. Yep I think he’ll be rested but more often than not, if he’s fit he plays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1969 Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Not a bad pre season game but you could see from the start both teams lacked that bit of an edge due to it being a friendly.Only just seen we equalised in the last minute as we left with 5 minutes to go as had to drop grand kids off at a party. And as a side note the club shop was packed before the game,bought both grand kids a new top.Left 100 fucking quid lighter but was good to see so many young uns getting stuff which hopefully will be the next generation of fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m also worried about our 3 centre half’s, aerially we are weak, think iredale might start back there next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piemon Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Good workout as mentioned. We more than matched them especially second half. Morley looks like he’s been in the gym over the summer, seems to have bulked up. I’m happy with our squad going into the first weekend of the season. Just hope we can keep it tight at the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
