Credit to Newcastle Thunder today👏

On and off the pitch they showed great spirit and character. Respect to everyone who's worked hard to ensure they are still here and have a club.

2pts hard earned for us and Thunder will only get better under Chris Thorman from here on in 🤝🏉

Respect to Newcastle Thunder. Not been an easy year, but just about matching it with one of the top three sides is a hell of an effort.

This game needs its non-heartlands clubs.

Newcastle Thunder Rochdale Hornets Nearly there, great to see a competitive scoreline, well done 👏

We might have lost but we were in it right til the end. One daft mistake caused Rochdale Hornets take advantage. Lesson to learn. The lads should walk away with heads held high. Great game Newcastle Thunder

Newcastle Thunder Rochdale Hornets Really proud of that performance. It sets our standard for the rest of the season. We need to make sure that the GIS is somewhere away teams don't want to come.

The big W eludes us still, but that’s a scoreline ⚡️THUNDER⚡️can be proud of.

Huge thank you to everyone who came to show their support at our first home game in Gateshead, as well as our gallant visitors Rochdale Hornets 👏
