Just to see what happens on this forum? I still think it will be Toronto, but it's not at all an impossible scenario that it would be Featherstone. If it happens that Leeds finish bottom in SL then so much the funnier... Not on today's performance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good form of Featherstone recently and the annihilation of Bradford, for example, was just made up horseshit so the conspiracy can be fed. Rovers aren't actually that good, but the fans need to believe they are for when the RFL step in. What's the point in everyone believing it? There has to be naysayers to oppose for when the truth is revealed. The truth is out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its all 50/50's then its really not that bad as its obviously possible to flip a coin 10 times and it come up tails every time. Its just variance, you might get all 50/50's next week.

RSN Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 I've read 10 - 15 comments from people who watched Fev v Barrow and the vast majority state Barrow just wanted it more than Featherstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonNgog Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 3 hours ago, Trojan said: Those who favour the RFL having an agenda were given fuel for their fire today by Mr Moore. Fev played poorly. Barrow played adequately. They didn't really need to be any better, Mr Moore did the rest. He made two or three decisions that turned the game in Barrow's favour, including disallowing a perfectly good try first half. Then there were the numerous forward passes he allowed from Barrow. Having said that Fev were very poor, First half they knocked on constantly, and kicked out of the full. Second half they were better first twenty, then fell apart completely, missing touch from a penalty which gifted Barrow a try. Every time a Yorkshire team loses, one of their fans magically arrives here to tell us their team were very poor but the referee allowed 'numerous forward passes' and 'two or three decisions turned the game'. It's remarkable really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fairfolly Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Phantom, you have quoted two instances of Chisholm brilliance. He used to do that regularly for Bradford and then disappear for the other 78 minutes. Was that the case today for Fev? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly wasn't at his best today, however you'd say that of the other 16 Fev players as well. Half backs generally struggle behind a beaten pack, and I'd say of our two, he probably performed better than Tom Holmes today.

Tex Evans Thigh Posted June 23, 2019 Share Posted June 23, 2019 Losing to barrow at home by 22 points is nothing to do with the referee or a conspiracy. Embarrassing comment. Based on that result, this thread was a big waste of time. What a good promotion race we have in the championship. Twists and turns every week.

LOL, he's a Championship half back, there are only a handful of halves even in SL who don't disappear for large chunks of the game. Even Anthony Thackeray, who was really good for us overall, had plenty of games where you barely noticed him (including both times Fev have played Sheffield this year), same with Ridyard, who I also think is a top-notch Championship half back.
