It has certainly helped massively having him at reserve, but it hasn’t been the case in every meeting. He missed Berwick away and only scored 9 at Plymouth and Glasgow (SC). The team was built to have a strong reserve and whilst Jonatan won’t score the same, we will have a better balance to us.

It shows how well Palovaara is going to see a comment like "he only scored 9 points"!

I stand by what I said, my point was that Parker is far from Champ standard & I couldn't believe there weren't stronger options available for the team?

That is where I felt Monarchs weren't giving their all, for example I could never imagine a team like Poole with their winning mentality, settling for a 3.00 NL reserve in their team.

Parker did exactly what I expected, only beat a non-finisher. Well done to Mark for doing that though.

Delighted for the middle order pairing, feel some of the criticism they've received has been too harsh. Two good scores against weaker opposition, can they continue against the leagues stronger sides?

Like I’ve already said Mark is only in for the Workington matches that’s it, Mark also knows this. We only needed someone to fill the whole for the weekend as the factory was up for Max.

So your pound is irrelevant.

 

Well Mark Parker is still in the team, despite you saying he was only in for the Workington matches!

Does that mean my pound (point) is relevant now?

I've said it before & I'll say it again, there has to be someone stronger than Parker willing to ride at reserve for the Monarchs. Especially now they're meeting 2 x 2.00 reserves against Glasgow! Marson, McGurk, Spencer?

They've announced MPT, but sticking with Parker at the moment!

He was, which was the original plan so your point is still irrelevant as he won’t be in the team come the next league meeting.

So it's irrelvant MP is still in the team facing our local rivals over both legs of the KO Cup Quarter Final when the aggregate score could be very close? 🙄

Nothing in the fixture list on the Edinburgh website about Saturdays match at Glasgow but is on the Glasgow one.
