The scrim reaper

Did we actually turn up?

Just seen the highlights shocking right hand defence the ginger geek strolled in for every try a poor display against what looked like a bunch of lads, something needs to be done about our edges I don't think they know their allowed to tackle! very poor display,

Walshaw Manning Woods, if only for the last conversion and the drop how it went over from that angle I'll never know!

A game of two halves as they say! The first half cost us the game today we just looked all over the place and I don't remember one attack that got us near to their line, I always say you need at least 12 points on the board when playing down hill to be competitive uphill second half, why do we find it so hard to score going downhill? I'll be honest at half time I thought and probably not the only one, that we weren't going to score at all, but we came out a different team the second half and turned it into a real battle which is a trademark of ours, we had donny on the ropes and lost out to a knockout blow going for the drop goal,if it goes over we probably win! I just felt as though it could have been better organised woods had no protection in front of him and Holmes had a straight run at him and the rest is history! It was a real tough one to take after all the effort the boys put in! Nice to see Manning back doing what he always does!

Walshaw, some big hits today Flynn carried well got stuck in Oakes carried well too

Tough day at the office for the boys today! A try after 8 secs doesn't help and the second was a bit iffy for me should have been a batley pen in my eyes! After that we dug in and had a go at Catalans until the interception! I guess in the end full time v part time showed the gulf between them, game over move on!

Ye got the second part right! the shock was on for all of 8 secs the first try, must be one for the record books!

I've just seen noahs ark in the car park!

Not sure if the game will be on Sunday, but ye never know with the R.L. Hope all the boys can swim iv never seen the pitch look like that in 50yrs going up to the mount!

First proper run out for the boys disappointed with the result but not the effort, I thought that we were the better team, most Halifax tries came off our mistakes and could have been avoided, Reynolds drop from the high kick way to casual thought he was posing for a photo, coopers lost ball 1st tackle, and the woods charge down, All led to tries, the score on half time was comical after the hooter all we had to do was stand and let them come to us but instead all our right hand edge shot out and ran past a dropped ball that luckily fax picked up and scored off, saying that and it being only our first run out I accept things need time to come together but in a game that we probably had 75% possession and75% field position, is only scoring 2 tries enough? or are we going to have the same old problems again when it comes to scoring, only time will tell!

Walshaw 100% as usual great shot on their lad on our line Cooper had a good stint! White tried hard all game good eff3
