dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted August 25, 2023 Edwards could still guest for us at Lynn but would you want that when it could be the Sheffield team he has just signed for that are threatened for a play off place if the Witches win.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ipswichwitches 16 Posted August 25, 2023 Don't think you can have a Rising Star guest from another Premiership side so that would rule Edwards out of any future guest appearances unfortunately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Didn’t Jenkins guest for Lynn last night though? Admittedly not in the RS position, but seems ok Edited August 25, 2023 by MP78 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jordan cannot guest in place of another PL RS, but can guest in another position in the PL. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSpecialOne 67 Posted August 25, 2023 Why didn’t the Witches sign him as their RS to replace Thompson? Hawkins had stated they intended to use him for the remaining fixtures so that would have been the obvious move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably because as soon as he's fit Dan will be back and also how were they to know Sheffield's RS would be injured, and need to be replaced Jason was booked as cover for Dan not replacement surely.

Falcon1983 557 Posted August 26, 2023 If the rules stay the same next season wouldn't be against having both Dan and Jason at reserve next season 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted August 26, 2023 Personally I would have Dan and Boughen,,,, both will improve dramatically,,, Edwards hasn't really progressed the last couple of years 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ipswich needed Edwards for a minimum of 4 matches, 2 this past week and 2 next. There’s no guarantee Thompson would be fit for the cup final and rushing him back would have been a risk. once again sitting on their hands has cost them 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
