Skidder1 7,637 Posted July 31, 2023 So, weather permitting, the Pirates return to Wimborne Road for this Championship clash against the Edinburgh Monarchs, with Craig Cook no doubt playing the 'pantomime villain' role(or should that be roll?) A couple of changes for both teams. For Pirates just an August positional change with Kyle Newman moving to 2 and Anders Rowe to 6. For the Monarchs, r/r continues for Castagna; and Edwards guesting for Lasse Fredrickssen (before Max Clegg replaces him for the return fixture on Friday). Thoughts?

Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted July 31, 2023 Was looking forward to watching Bastian Borke. But Ben Morely a more than adequate replacement. Oh dear it’s going to be a one sided meeting. And the sweepstake is going to nudge £50. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However don’t think it really matter who we get options for borke aren’t great. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
