There are a couple of injuries but we have the squad to overcome that challenge. We were caught short a bit against Blackheath as we lost JB before the game and Rob Povey during the game but this is a resilient squad and we did well to get the bonus. Harry Newborn mentioned we could have scored just before half time which didn't come off but had it gone our way then Saturday could have been different for us.

We have Harris Rutherford who looked sharp in his game a few weeks ago and Lloyd who is a great 10. We also have Will Metcalfe who is looking better and better with game time and also Sinjin who is a sharp 9 both just need a bit more exposure to the first team. JB might well be back this week also who is a rock for us at 9 and scores tries. If Lloyd does step in at 10 we have Mitchell who's can slot in at 13 and James Norman who can move to the wing who has scored a lot of tries in his appearances for us.

It would be nice to see Callum and Morgan back in the starting line up if fit as they are two prolific try scorers for us. Callum really gets us on the front foot in the ball carrying area and has a very handy Rugby League style offload but we have the depth also, Jack Baldry has stepped up phenomenally well and has shown he is first team quality. He puts in some serious work out there and can also score.

All in all I believe this year we have that strength in depth to see us over the line and I have every confidence in the lads this weekend, they always bounce back strong from a loss. Whatever the combinations are out there they will be well thought through and the lads will have done the work in training to prepare for probably the most important game of our season.

Come on Roth, send em home wi nowt!

Only 9 points separate us and Plymouth in Points Difference. We need to put some points on them this weekend

Blackheath were good and deserved something out of the game.

The referee was awful. A number of the penalties he gave against us were just wrong: their player fell over into one of ours and he gave high tackle. The obstruction - we could see John's (ball carrier) back with 2 of their players in contact , nobody from our side near. When their player held our lad's shirt to stop him making a tackle, the vociferous Blackheath supporters behind us were saying, "Don't know how we didn't get a yellow there."

Was always hard when 9 and 10 were both missing for much of the game. Hope JB is back: he is vital to the rest of the season. Is Corben still about?

Great fight back to secure the losing bonus point and it felt like we might have got the draw. Well done all.
