Sharp Returns

September 23 2016

It has been a difficfult start to the season and it doesn't look like getting any easier with a trip to last season's play-off finalists - Doncaster Knights .

We did play well againt relegated Irish last week but that took its toll so there a number of changes.

 Ollie Dodge, Jake Sharp and Jordan Burns all start in the backs while Mike Howard, Dave Spelman,  and Justin Blanchet will be in the pack..
 
Blues: 15. Michael Le Bourgeois (c) 14. Pat Tapley 13. Tom Farrell 12. Ollie Dodge 11. Dean Adamson 10. Jake Sharp 9. Jordan Burns 
1. Hayden Thompson-Stringer 2. George Edgson 3. Dave Spelman 4. Mike Howard 5. Will Carrick-Smith 6. Justin Blanchet 7. Ben Adams 8. Jason Hill
 
Changes: 16. Jacob Fields 17. Camilo Parilli-Ocampo 18. Billy Walker 19. Ed Taylor 20. Josh Buggea 21. Tom Whiteley 22. Myles Dorrian

Le Bourgeois's favourite position is fb so he'll be happy with that! And at last a starting slot for Ollie Dodge, which is good. If we match Donny upfront and don't give away silly penalties (his yellow last week possibly reason why Buggea is on bench) then I have every faith in us getting something out of the game, but I don't have us down to likely get more than one point.

The three home games in a row will be key to building momentum for the season. 3 wins with 2 BP tries should be the target, anything less than 2/3 wins is disastrous.

Hard on the wallet. £24 for seating and £19 for the terrace. I reckon they've stuck circa 20% on the price of the tickets.

Comparable to Bedfords pricing structure.

Think he's surprised as living costs are cheaper up North.

Blues 24 & 20 reduced to 20 & 16
Knights 24 & 19 reduced to 22 & 16.50.

All club supporters should look at the home team website to try save a bit.

I was suprised as last year I could swear that seats cost £18. I could well be wrong.

Anyone think there was blatant obstruction on Farrell/Dodge for Doncasters final try?
