come on rovers, lets sort this fax team out and win this trophy you deserve it with all the hard work you have put in!

wow great news!

Great to hear, what a club we belong to! Up the mighty mighty featherstone rovers!

great news tonka is my favorite!

Good post, we need to chill a bit witht he referees. Yeah some are worse tha others but moaning on a public forum is not going to change this!

Smeaton Tonks Spears all awesome, shame Welham didnt chase that big lad down the wing to score though or I would have put him in 3rd

the lads did well, Smeaton MOM for me as well, although Tonks, Welhem, Kaye, Finn (kicks were awesome) Dickens and Hardacker were outstanding. Well played lads we are actually nearly there!

God play another record. I was not going to reply to this because I did not want it putting back at the top of the forum listings, and therefore back into the public eye, but I am sick of the same posts. I notice that we never got this sort of posting anywhere near as much last year. Is it that all our fans used to be well behaved all season last year, or is it that it makes people feel better when they lose to us if they can have a moan on the forum about SOMETHING they consider legitimate. If this really bothers you report it officially. if your post was really to thank us publicly then you would have left out the bit about some idiot shouting abuse, but it was obviously a moan about that fan that you have tried unsuccessfully to disguise as a compliment to our fans.

Mick My mate Owen should have contacted you about your work? Ive sorted it anyway hopefully it comes off for you.

thanks bob I've sorted it now!

I am not sure How, I've searched to find him but he hasnt posted for a while

I know someone who may have a job for Mick, and I want to give him their contact details. If someone can let him know I would appreciate it. Thanks!

Thats what I was trying to say, so why abuse someone for how they are born?

I think the fine sends a right message to the fans. If it hurts their club then they wont do it, or it may encourage people around them to tell the to shut up. 1 in 20 people are gay, so your bound to get some rugby players who are. Now freedom of speech is all well and good, but when you are ridiculing someone in an aggressive and constant way in a highly public place then someone has to draw a line. What difference did it make to those people who started chanting if he's gay? its not like he was going to stop playing and give them a cuddle is it? so why start it? Comedians play on it because its their way of dealing with it...seriously who would choose to be gay? Nobody. Religion is a poor excuse for this behaviour.

Good luck Jesse I hope your lad gets better. If he's anything like you I'm sure he'll be running everyone ragged round a rugby pitch over here in 14 years time! All the best.

Think Rob is referring to coady, who has had a so-so season with us. I would have thought he may be a replacement for JJP next season, brought in now to sharpen people up by pushing for places. Does anyone know what this bloke is like? I thought Smeaton was line dup to come through the centres next year so I'm pretyy suprised by this.

Looks like Batley are through wow amazing batley well done! Leigh looks past it now...

You have to be kidding! Where did you hear this? On the plus side, up steps Hardacre maybe?

Wow we dominated a quality Fax team there. only fault I can find is in our kicking game and discipline but our defense was again top drawer. Thought the ref was fair, and the defense was back to our awesome levels at the start of the season thanks boys what a game!

I agree for me he has been the biggest disappointment. How about briggs at 13, and kain/finn scrum half half back?

This gives me the chills. why would someone do this? Utter madness. My condolences to his family and his club.

Nail + head = this post

Well this thread has been really interesting, I thought some people might say its too early to think about this. I reckon we could do with cover for our centres if coady goes at the end, and i agree we need another tony tonks style knuckle dragger!

Powell was indicating in the pont and cas that he is looking to strengthen the squad for next year. I was thinking where the hell would he do it? We have quality all over the park now, who would you bring in? Would he just strengthen the reserves? Whose contracts are up for renewal at the end of the year?

This may really blunt the attack of Leigh, he was a key player and organiser probably their stand out man. Think this could really change the top of the table its so important to beat fax and widnes now in our upcoming games. Will be tough but we are good enough. Will he play against us, and if so how effective will he be after 2 months out?
