Due to Batley's defeat last week the wounded animal will be hard to beat, we can't seem to play the slope, 

Seeing realistically we only need one victory to stay up.. Eyes might be on barrow at home.

Ill be surprised if we come away with a victory on sunday

Batley 28 Dewsbury 18

Talking to a ex Batley player today and if he’s to be believed most of Batley players can’t wait to get away,Crookes pulled out last minute last week, nothing changes their then ?anyway we’ll find out Sunday whether they want to play or not. Heart says Batley 16 Rams 22 but head says Batley 28 Rams 16.

Think Doggies should sneak this one but you never know...

Batley 18 - 14 Rams

We never win at their place nowadays, probably jet-lag. those Batley players who are staying next season will want to impress the coach, those who aren't will want to sowcase their abilities for the fans.

FTS: Brown

Att: 950 (depends if the turnstiles have yet been mended).

No teanby or Potts in squad. Shame on both counts. Hallett back and Delaney too so one of them getting s runnout at wing as a guess.  

Everett straight swap for jack.  Thought he’d. Pay for missing that try??

To be honest thought Everett had one of his best games for us against Batley last time. Potts has been great for us, solid defence and under the high ball and deceptively quick and takes his chances. Think Worrincy will struggle to get back in.

Well can we beat three times? 

Looks like Batley put a good performance at Fev, so could go either way, but heart says

Batley 20 Rams 22

Don't think either side will be up for it, with us being the worst of two poor teams. It will undoubtedly be a dour, tedious borefest, with the dogs scraping a couple of fortunate tries to win it, although they will, as usual, get all the bad refereeing decisions which would otherwise have seen them stroll it. I say this with all the certainty of someone who has been talked into going, against their better judgement.

I thought that this might just be a case of squad rotation, even though they all have a rest next weekend. Or maybe the full-backs crashing tackle on Teanby has still left him a bit shaken..

Well, what else would you prefer to be doing (being realistic, no fantasies)?

Well we are over there to visit kif and kin anyway, but the alternative attraction is a trip to Owlcoats with the management - not an easy choice. :rolleyes:

Teanby playing but Brown not! Ryder on wing.  Interesting times...Think well miss Browny, hope he's not injured...

I bet Owlcoats looked more and more attractive as the day wore on.
