I'll start by saying that this isn't a knock at Farrimond. He's a young kid - the future is his & he looks to be a special talent. 

That being said, for what we need for this season - his injury might be a bit of a blessing in disguise for the side.  If we can get Miski and Marshall back, then that side last night - with Keighran at 6 and Eckersley at centre, looked balanced and capable. 


Get one, or two of the wingers back, keep the rest the same and I can see us building confidence.  


Then Bev and Walters return for another boost. 

Thompson has been in and out of the side recently as well. I wonder if he's not 100% and keeps getting niggles. Along with the rest, he hasn't been quite himself since he came back from a longer period out.

We looked good in that 2nd half.
Keighran at 6 looked a good fit. When he played there previously he looked good. Eckersley looked a threat every time he got the ball.


Another massive for AK is his goal kicking.
Anyone know what his accuracy percentage is. It must be very, very high.
Last night his goal kicking was excellent. 

83.8% If the stats on the Super League site are accurate.

Thompson broke a few ribs didn’t he, I think at the same time Walters did his leg. I think they can be tender for awhile after, now he ain’t doing light duties for the last few weeks. Ideally let him rest up and give others the chance to keep things ticking over
