andyram Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Sunday's game with the Eagles will be another tough one to predict.Think Ned will enjoy this one even more if we come out winners. Sure he will remember the Easter Monday game where he could see the real problems with the team after his first match return, after that win against the Bulldogs. Also there's the small chance of catching the Eagles up in the table,if we win. The absent of Moore won't help,if not playing this weekend. Still think we have enough to win this one: Eagles 22 - 34 Rams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamesb0551 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Another tough test, I believe walshaw is back which should strengthen our defence at centre hope moores playing as we are a much better side with him, takes so much weight off the shoulders of Sykes. Rams win by ten and hopefully enough rams there to make it like a home game ? www.dewsburyramstv.co.uk - free highlights service Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind side johnny Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 NK said in his radio interview on Sunday that GM will definitely miss this game and that his injury will need assessing before any other decisions are made. I would guess that the results of this assessment will be available by the end of this week. In my eyes Speakman has improved enormously under the new coaching regime and should make a good replacement for GM in this match. This should also provide another opportunity for Sam Day to further impress the fans. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to go back in the pack, probably giving Rob a break ( though not easy to drop rob either given his latest form) i think it will be tough away and without Gaz but will be a good marker of how we have progressed. Was interesting to hear about Sam Day being dropped but with Dom presumably playing at 7 as BSJ says we should have room for both Ward and Day. Interesting decisions for Ned to be sure.

Looking forward to seeing Sykes opposite Yere and Lo again mind. Massive highlight last time out for me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crown Flatter Posted August 19, 2017 Share Posted August 19, 2017 Sheffield, at "home" and with a strong nineteen selected, might be too good for us. Our defence must improve if we are to win Sheffield 30-18 Dewsbury FTS: Knowles MoM: Adamson Att: 588 Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the old nine ole Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 I thought today was a real defining game ..... I wondered how much of our recent form was down to Gaz Moore ... and how much was down to improved fitness and coaching!!! What a great day ... we are fitter and faster than at any time in the last 4 years .... The team spirit is amazing! James Glover .... where has that extra pace come from .... Toby Adamson ... WOW!! ... Sam Day ... got to sign him!! I haven't enjoyed Sunday afternoons as much as this for some time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YOUNG UN Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Excellent result. Every time Sheffield got back into the game we never gave up and just kept plugging away and taking our chances. Thought Sam Day was outstanding along with both Toby's, Dale, James Glover and Dom. No Rob or Gareth Moore and we still pulled it out. Superb.

Blind side johnny Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Once again nobody had a poor game and the team spirit is excellent. I don't want GM to be out any longer than it takes to get him properly fit but feel that we can afford to have him miss the next game too. Speakman had a very good game today and Day added that little spark of magic that we needed at the time. We were never behind at all throughout the match and just kept coming back at them whenever they were looking confident. I wonder what sort of team Sheffield will have available next year.

NickD Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 got to agree with all the comments so far. Amazing result considering we were without Gaz, Hard and probably unfair to single anyone out but thought Sam Day was outstanding ..Please, please we gotta try and get him for next season.. Never say die spirit was really obvious too but was really pleasing today was the defence...They are a really strong outfit going forward but we held out so many times... Yere kept out again, well done Sykes!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted August 20, 2017 Share Posted August 20, 2017 Most pleased that my prediction was incorrect. We got at them from the start and didn't let up. Getting that early lead set us up nicely. Our defence was good when we stopped them running, but allow Sheffield any bit of room they can cause teams problems and we saw that, especially when Lo got his try. Like others, it would be unfair to single out anyone, but it was good to see Day with his scurries and Glover seems to like scoring from distance. Our forwards are a good unit and today's change of second-rowers were as good as last week's. My only disappointment in the game was JT's needless penalty on the last tackle, which allowed Sheffield to score from the penalty. It really feels good to support Dewsbury right now; if only the change had come a little earlier, well... Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old 49er Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 If we had played like this earlier in the season, would a change in the coaching staff have been considered ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously not, but we weren't playing like this, nothing remotely like this and If we hadn't changed coach we wouldn't be playing anything like we are now. Not only were we poor under GM we played a style of rugby that scared away a number of fans that we will find it difficult to get back. People won't pay to be bored senseless?
