FINALLY recovered after the sensory overload of three derby matches on TV in the space of 20 hours.
All three had to be watched while pretending to do some work which is not quite the same as sofa and Twiglets action but, well, it beats working in an office without rugby league on the telly I suppose.
First up it’s been pointed out to me that this blog was somewhat cruel to Lee Smith and his lovely bubble perm.
And if Smith’s barnet was bad, shouldn’t I have a pop at Sean Long’s new look?

Maybe he’s a new-age traveller, maybe he’s joined the Levellers, maybe he’s just got that little bit madder. But whatever’s going on he takes the new top spot in my rugby league bad hair top five.
I’ve just made that up so let’s run through the rest of them.
In at number two is Gareth Raynor. That blond job now makes him look like a flash git. Maybe as a Great Britain winger he felt a little bit inconspicuous walking down the street in Hull? Not anymore, Gareth.
Smith takes the third position. It’s still bugging me. Why oh why? Played well against Bradford though so obviously hasn’t hindered the aerodynamics.
Obvious choice but Danny Brough takes number four slot. Barrie Mac tried to make out the new red streak was a stick of rhubarb on Boots ‘n’ All and I can’t really better that.
Five is the binman Matt King. King the wing man bin man. All he needs is to live in a wigwam in Wigan. But with that dodgy Afro he’d end up being scalped.
And I know he’s a centre now and not a winger but that doesn’t work. And I suppose he’s not a binman anymore. But he plays for Warrington so will always be a binman to me.
