Podcast: The Final Hooter 2019 #15 – Easter schedule debate, Super League interviews, Championship reaction

Dave Parkinson

Adrian Jackson and Dave Parkinson are amazed by an all-new opening to the podcast chat about the Easter games this year.

Is it time to knock the two games over Easter on the head? Dave doesn’t think so, and Adrian takes the opposite view.

We hear from Salford Red Devils boss Ian Watson after their very Good Friday success at Warrington Wolves.

Kieron Purtill was a happy man as his Widnes Vikings side disposed of Leigh Centurions in a Championship derby, while Widnes skipper Hep Cahill reflects on playing 150 games for the club.

England international Stefan Ratchford chats to Adrian after Warrington’s big win over Hull KR on Easter Monday.

Leigh coach John Duffy gives an exasperated response to the Easter period and picking up a home win over Dewsbury Rams, a success that came at a cost for the Centurions.

Steve Manning had our last word with St Helens chief Justin Holbrook after a near perfect Easter, where the Saints registered 98 points in two games.

Dave and Adrian also assess the sixth round Challenge Cup draw.
