  1. speaking from a view in the main stand i would have thought the rams outnumbering us 2/1 is generous indeed.....there were a few of us in the main stand too......and if we went by noise levels, we were well above the home sides :D

    Their fans were quiet but so are we at home

  2. that's right, if there's too much kicking in the game, then the first thing to go should be the ridiculous 40/20. a good defensive stint in your opponents 20 could be all for nought with just one kick, and not only do you lose ground, you lose possession as well. when the rfl run out of silly new rules, here's one for them. why not have a penalty spot in front of the goal, ala football, and all penalty kicks to be taken from there, regardless of where the offence took place. stupid i know, which is why we shouldn't rule it out.

    Great stuff Oldrover we could also have the added benefit by letting the fullback stand on the crossbar to try and deflect it. What entertainment but as you say keep it from the rfl or that could be trialed in our league lol.

  3. It depends if you need it to win the game. I bet you wouldn't have run the last one in '83' :dry: .

    Yes Andrew and if my memory serves me right we were 12-5 down in that final and opted to go for goal instead of running it and set the game up for a draw after Quinn booted it over. Then we got our just rewards.

  4. Agree with TET. Why on earth would we want to encourage kicks at goal ? :huh:

    Because sometimes they win you games and sometimes they get you a bonus point. I know,why not do away with the penalty kick at goal. What a farce that would be.

  5. Surely by encouraging kicks at goal we are just becoming rugby onion!!! Why would we want to do that, I cant think of a worse rule change.

    Now my lad, just sit and think of the excitement you get from a penalty and the excitement you get from a try. We should be encouraging attacking rugby not the boring win a penalty and kick goal ######.

    I would usually run the ball and keep field position. We did this against Batley and although we didnt score on that set we scored on the next one. RL is about pressure you immediately put yourself under pressure by kicking a goal and having to return from your own quarter as seen numerous times last season esp v Fax.

    And get knocked out of a tournament i.e Sheffield b@gger the excitement. Give me a win anyday.

  6. I've been saying Welham in the corner with 30 seconds to go and Finny's kick going over off the upright.

    Final score Warrington 22 - Fev 24

    Is that AFTER Warrington have had 3 sent off and 4 in the sin bin?????

  8. Just one question if I may, Where is Rarefrith to congratulate the winning team ? Also does he/she still believe the team is going to be in a relegation fight ?

    He's about four posts up Bob having done a complete turnaround.....bless him...OR HER

  9. I thought it was a good workout last night. despite the conditions our attacking play was good and i was impressed with Finn at half back. was nice to see some very good attacking kicks which forced 3 or 4 drop outs. also our defence and line speed looked good

    roll on sunday

    Im glad someone has mentioned Finn. His kicking was spot on in the conditions and he even had to run 50yards when he found himself in open space.What a difference he made at half back. Well done Liam.
