DDB220 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 29, 2023 4:54 pm I am also worried about Darlow. I think he will kick it long far more. What we have up top will need to adjust and win more 50/50’s and second balls. I will repeat the advice regularly hollered by my sons under 13’s coach back when “ Don’t let it bounce” and “Body shape”

The more direct approach from Darlow would probably suit James more than Gnonto.
For 3 games i would actually welcome it away from home, if only to see what it brings, it may surprise us and DF.

His feet are most definitely gonna be under scrutiny tonight, just don't dilly dally with it even if you are passing it out, or Swannie's gonna get a load of FFS's!!!!

Time will tell, but when I’ve watched Darlow warming up at ER, he seems more than adequate on the ball.
Blessed are those that attend matches and report these things back to us :angel:

Archie and James rested and a full frontal lobotomy down the right side with Spence and Willy, Byram back on the left.

As expected, Gray is given a rest.
Pleased to see Byram back, Cooper not so much

Least he's finally made some changes.

Wonder if he might go back to the thing he tried earlier in the season?

Asking Summerville to play right and come narrow like Buendia :duno:
