  1. I agree I was pretty choked up by this. Quality players and quality fans. fair play to whoever started this chant.
  2. driving to widnes we were trying to spot rovers fans, and I thought it would be great if you could get some kind of flag the attaches to the car somehow... can you buy these or should I go on dragons den?!
  3. 1. kain caused all sorts of problems for them 2. Finn won us the match! 3. Tommy - excellent workrate
  4. They would knock us back on the stadium. Although look at Salford and Cas, I'm sure the Wigan players would have no problems using our facilities.
  5. What a result just got home from the match we played badly with poor completion rates and still beat Widnes on their own pad...worth the travel get in!
  6. I just hope whatever they do it meets the requirements for superleague. Then we can dare to dream again.
  7. 30 - 6 MOM Briggs Come on rovers....go rovers go! lol Widnes seem to have a lot out injured, while we are at full strength. Another win, deny a bonus point, and keep this superb momentum going.
  8. course its working! Its a birds eye view. I can see the posts on each side lol.
  9. This just reminded me, when we beat halifax last season at the shay after going 18 - 0 down in the first half, me and my little bro was listening to 'the greatest man that ever lived' by weezer but changed the lyrics from: I am the greatest man that ever lived, I was born to give and give and give To We are the greatest team that ever was, we were born, to win and win and win! Good drive home
  10. Will be great to see Allen in contention, he is the only dissapointment for me this year. Hope he has a good game.
  11. I'll be gettign the dvd. Dvd sales must be through the roof this season!
  12. think the commentary has been good, they haven't patronised. fev playing well after early shocker! Fev playing well and not given up after conceding so many points in the first half.

    Its a great feeling...I emjoyed the 'dickens is a legend' chant at the start after the minutes silence, gave me goosebumps!
  14. The fax fans are moaning on their forums about the team and coach, but the truth is the fax team that showed up in the first half was not a far cry away from them at their best last season...the only difference is the massive improvements we have made as a team. we have gone forward, they have stood still, and every team who says they had a bad day when they played us needs to wake up. An outstanding, entertaining game of rugby from fev, with bone shaking tackling from our forwards who sickend their pack off after 40 mins. i cannot wait for the next match...has the sleeping giant of featherstone rovers finally woken up to demolish champ 1 opposition?! nobody has even taken a bonus point from us this season!
  15. 1. Briggs - bone crunching tackles good attacking and kicking 2. Hardman - solid as a rock and back to his best from last yeat 3. Grayson - a revalation running at petrified centres put in a right bnig hit too! 4. Tonks barnstorming runs and about 4 big hits in the first 10 mins helped sicken them off 5. Finn - tactical kicking and a right handoff has made this man a better aquisition than harris last season by far 6. Morrison - more big hits and crunching defense from this lad who always gives 110% Dickens, Welham (great season) JJP, all played well also. can beleive how on fire we are! btw tim spears played well...but man of the match?! I was pretty confused by that...
  16. rover 32 fax 10 MOM Finn Attendance 2000 Come on mighty fev lets make it 5 in a row, best fev team in years!
  17. I did not realise what happened, as I live in Sheffield now i lose touch a little with local news. Thanks stuart, what a time to score your first try you showed a heart of gold and a will of iron on sunday all the best mate. Keir
  18. great news big lad, your a good social bloke and I reckon you can make some noise on friday with the air tasting that little bit sweeter, and those pies tasting a bit better! glad to hear it mate all the best
  19. Im more concerned about Rob Evans playing for Whitehaven at number 15. Traitor
  20. great photos as always, but featherstone is spelt wrong on the site!
  21. trouble is i like it near the drum, but one of the 'older' members of my group doesnt like being near the drum or Ann...understandable i guess but disapointing. we have the fans, we have the lungs, we have the songs we need to become the 14th man every home match!
  22. I have been really let down by Allen. When he came I thought he could be the answer to our loose forward problem (im not a huge fan of jamie field, for an experienced player he makes far too many unforced errors, although his workrate and tackling is faultless). When i've seen him play (about 3 times TBH) he's been non existent. Really hope he comes back with a bit more fire in his belly, as on paper this lads could be a top player in our division.
  23. The fans are amazing at away matches, we sometimes outsing rival fans on their own turf. Why is this not the same at home? Are we too spread out pherhaps? What can we do to raise noise levels and atmosphere to make the 'Big Fellas' stadium a fortress this year? Ideas anyone...
