Bloody hell. Can't be good for the pitch mind two games in two days in this weather. Gives Wasps an excuse!
You really have to question the wisdom of playing a Rugby League match on a Friday evening less than 24 hours before the 15 a side game. Towards the end of both halves it was difficult to see who was who. It was 15 browns against 15 browns. Still, nice to see Cov back on track after last week's unexpected blip.
That pitch can't recover this season surely? They'll either have to go for a beach like we did at HR or a drop in pitch - no idea how expensive they are.
Cov sign Ravai Fatiaki (centre/half back) from Leicester. A Fiji international who also plays for the army with prop Nat Titchard-jones.
Adds flexibility as cover for both out-half and 12/13, which is always welcome given the limited bench at this level (requirement for front-row cover limits the options in the backs). With Tolmie also comfortable in the back row, and Daynes able to cover lock/BR, there seems to be a clear and useful policy in this direction.
I love it when your team is clear at the top of the league and then they strengthen!Read in Tim’s blog last week RW wanted 3 new players to come in ASAP to strengthen the squad.

He was brought in a couple of weeks ago, but only just confirmed. No idea why it took so long! Emery, Umaga and Dingwall are also DR, as was Gabriel Oghre (who may have gone back now).Found another they’ve signed back row Paddy Ryan on dual Reg from Northampton for the season, only DR in the squad at present and only 2nd this season I think, considering some sides have 8+ (Most have over 5 on a regular basis) in their match day squads.
Oh yeah my mistake seems the DR’s have played a fair bit of development games this season.He was brought in a couple of weeks ago, but only just confirmed. No idea why it took so long! Emery, Umaga and Dingwall are also DR, as was Gabriel Oghre (who may have gone back now).
Yes, I understand so. I believe he was one of the 'several' signed already for next year, but brought forward due to the Stevens/Tuitupou/Dingwall situation. Tigers don't use him, so it makes sense for both sides. I guess Cov can now use it as 'trial' period eh?Oh yeah my mistake seems the DR’s have played a fair bit of development games this season.
Has Fatiaki signed permanently? They haven’t said any length of contract I don’t think.
Saw this. Excellent article and good to see that at least someone, at national level, has noticed that rugby exists below the Prem/Champ.
Excellent!!! Well done Cov!The mighty Cov continue to progress with a 10-36 away win !
Right, so how many games left? How many wins needed to win the league?Great win, DMP won but importantly Plymouth lost so even if they win there games in hand they’re behind DMP. Just pushed another side slowly out the race!

And not have a loss to Darlington? If the losses are elsewhere we should be alright shouldn't we?8 from 11 to be sure (with BP’s thrown in), I’m sure 7 will probably be enough

15 point lead isn't it?
With a home game next Sat against Fylde (not whipping boys per se, but definitely bottom for a reason), and DMP having to travel to Old Elthamians, there's a fair chance that Cov could be 18, 19 or even 20 points clear by 5pm.15 with DMP having a game in hand I suppose DMP won that game and 5-0 us twice it’s all square but I’d be surprised.
Cliche but one game at a time springs to mind but i just cannot see Cov letting it slip!
