Great ! Could solve a positional problem there, surely better than Thornley. And his D was very good too. When he went off at HT, the 3/4 line was weaker albeit with an Academy look about it.

Haven't watched the full game yet but Mago had a dream start, hard to put down, a slipped pass for try one and then powered over himself. Nsembe put in some hard hits, lots of enuthiastic play with Smith/O'Neil distributing well.

im not going to go overboard,it was a pre season friendly after all,nice to see the younger lads that perhaps with covid havent had the limelight on them as much as well as seeing a couple of the new lads in action,no doubt Peet will be happy with that and he should be it did its job to get them ready for the step up against laughing boys new version of title favourite's warrington
on a side note i do love to see them in a traditional kit shame the club dont do it every year but thats me

I was happy to see dummy runners and support play, we still looked very structured but with the ability to actually do something in broken play or ofg the cuff.
Next week will be the interesting one, I don't expect to win but see enough to be confident come the main season we can beat them.

With no disrespect meant it’s only Newcastle, that said we looked great and last season it would have taken 6 games to post 42 points
Right direction.
