InTheDeepStuff Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 Can’t imagine much new news last night, imagine P&P would have been confirmed for Thursday 26th (can’t see any other viable date) and that’s about it. Don’t think Damian Bates will have given any Northampton news before giving the promotion there the chance to be first with anything team related Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manifesto Posted March 27 Report Share Posted March 27 Managed to go down to the P&P yesterday never seen them have so much track time all trying different things with starts and setups. there should be no excuses regarding setups again BV next Thursday. all the riders looking smooth as per and hoping young Killeen can find his feet at prem level with plenty of Aussies in the pits.

If you like a trier with plenty of bottle, Luke Killeen fits the bill perfectly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carry one but not Two Not a lot to work with 0.05 under the points limit, Etheridge is on a 3.00 so would have 3.05 Premiership average or converted 4.57 Championship average, can only see Mulford or Pijper as a replacement if they go down that path of an early replacement as sure they’ll give Luke Killeen more time before they look at the RS position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheffield could effectively have 2 rising stars like Lynn have done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes me realize how fortunate we were to have Flint and Kerr/ Sedgemen at reserve last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JT 2nd best rising star so far this season and Gilkes did okay for Sheffield before, either got to be better than Jye Etheridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Gilkes may have burnt his bridges with Sheffield after last minute pay demands at start of 2025 season. Joe T has actually put in a couple of good performances around Owlerton in last 18 months (alongside the odd did too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
