EQUALIZER Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Won't be much in this We will just edge it.Might be a draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the old nine ole Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Fortunately we still have Hooley!! ..... Although I am really concerned about the ongoing problem at 6 with Sykes being injured..... perhaps Hooley can play at stand off ..... P.S. lets hope Wakeys injury list doesn't get any worse tonight and Hooley gets recalled .. I note Arundel got a shoulder injury and Reynolds took a knock to his head ... fingers crossed.

We’re desperately short of forwards as you know. Without Sykes too tricky to call tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham fisher Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I reckon this will be a close game with only a score in it either way. Sykes and Annakin are big losses for us plus I notice Andrade isn’t in the 19wonder if Harvey Hallas will be making his debut. My 17 Hooley. Gabriel/Morton. Walshaw. Ryder. Worrincy. Knowles. Finn. Sheriffe. Ward. Garratt. Kibula. Igbinedion. Trout. subs. Hallas. Field. Day. Mackay. Rams 18 Batley 14 fts Ryder. mom Day. att 1265 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crown Flatter Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 No Irishman O’Trout either! I too, think it will be close. Dewsbury 22-18 Batley FTS: Trout MoM: Day Att: 1220. Legs, Dews, Legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brown's main asset is his kicking game but we now have Finn for that, so we need to strengthen defensively, hence Knowles being chosen in preference. I reckon Gabriel and Hallas will miss out. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NickD Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Absolutely shocking. An embarrassment. Batley Just wanted it more. Beaten by 11/12 men and the ref was probably on our side we won’t win again until Sykes is back. We have no leader on the field and I can’t see anyone talking. Do we have a captain? If I hadn’t had season ticket I’d have asked for my money back. Leigh, Widnes away next. Oh dear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheffieldRam Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I never expected perfection . But I expect the players to want it as much as we ( the fans) do. How many of the lads do you think actually play for the shirt ? Only a few in my opinion . No leader and with Sykes was walking with a knee brace on and 2 months away from a return I worry. Without a doubt the Batley players know what it means to be a bulldog . I just wish a few more of our lads knew what it meant to be a Ram .

Piggy's mate Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 You had us on the ropes when down to 11 it just fired us up.

Dog forever Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Don't want to rub salt into your wounds but when we were down to 11 and you scored the floodgates should have opened and I feared the worst. With all the pens you were getting it should have been game over. Then we got going and it was one way traffic. How many times did we push your players into touch I was shocked because I didn't even know that our players knew that tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the old nine ole Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Absolutely hopeless!! .... No Sykes .. No Chance!! ..... got to find a stand off! Knowles is a clever player and would always be in my team but never ever at 6!!! ... Batley were better in every department tonight and fully deserved their win ... jeez it even appeared we had the ref on our side tonight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crown Flatter Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 My match summary: we were hopeless and Batley weren’t. With a penalty count in our favour to the order of 15-6 and playing against 12 players for most of the game, we should have played a touch better don’t you think? Legs, Dews, Legs.

callmedave Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 It’s proper spoiled my Easter weekend. A real team would have put them to the sword or at least tried. Me thinks there are some aren’t really pulling their weight. Come on Lee, weed them out and get shut of them. Roger Ram fan club Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
youngun Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 23 hours ago, Wakefield Ram said: Surprised no Simon Brown and who's Ellis Robson? Note for Lee Greenwood this week. Must show all Dewsbury forwards a video of Ward, Brown & Taira the technique of running on to the ball and not stopping. Must educate Michael Knowles in the art of passing. When a player is 4 feet away don't throw bullet passes and then have a go at that player for dropping the ball. Tell Sam Day that we only get 6 tackles and it's a good option to keep the ball alive rather than thinking he can dummy his way through every time he gets the ball. Tell Kibula that he can knock people over rather than going down at the first line of defence. Lightweight Joe Sheriffe had a superb game and made more yards then the rest of the pack put together. It would have been a good idea tonight when Batley were down to 11 to throw the ball (don't you think) to our 2 flyers on the wing. Pack was totally inept tonight. Liam Finn has the class and can open up play, which he did twice tonight late on, on the back of a go forward pack. Let's give him a chance and give him a platform. One final observation, do our players know it's OK to try and pass the ball before a tackle is complete? I was taught that back in 1976 by a couple of coaches called Addy & Walker.
