Dewsbury away

[Michael Ashton]

Further try with Dewsbury. Too many penalties given away. 20-28 with 15 minutes to go. Yet another penalty given away.

[Raider91]

Why did we kick the 2 to make it 10-20. 

We had them on the rack full set of 6 on there line we go over that's the game. We kick the two then knock on off the restart, they score and that's it. Our negativity has done us alongside on I'll discipline.

[Barroooww]

Sounds like a horrendous collapse. Not winning this game is probably very detrimental to us now. Can’t see much way back up the table with dewsbury also having a game in hand.

[Michael Ashton]

What a terrible afternoon 20-34. I cannot see us pulling this game back and looking at the remaining games I can't see us avoiding relegation. Mind you I don't know what close teams have other fixtures. Wow we have a try from Ritson. 26-34 with 6 minutes to go.

[Barroooww]

Conceding 40 points to dewsbury is simply unacceptable in a relegation battle 

[UpTheRaiders]

Awful second half performance we look scared to use interchanges. Smith out on his a##e and we don't bring him off. Relegation beckons 

[Michael Ashton]

Swinton are ahead of Batley 20-18 so that isn't good for Raiders.

[Gus Tyson]

The rams still got to play Rochdale so I’d say that’s another 2 points for them.

i think it’s not looking good for us at all. 

[NWDuk]

Dewsburys remaining games

Sheffield (A)
Halifax (H)
Rochdale (A)
Featherstone (H)
Batley (A)
Bradford (H)
Toulouse (A)
Widnes (H)

 

Barrows remaining games.

Leigh Centurions (H)
Swinton Lions (A)
York City Knights (H)
Bradford Bulls (H)
Sheffield  (A)
Toronto Wolfpack (A)
Batley Bulldogs (H)

 

We need to win whatever they do plus one more game to bring it to points difference. Uphill task.

[UpTheRaiders]

Wonder if cresta will come out slating fans this week it's one thing losing when we have half a squad but we had a strong team to pick from today. Not good enough poor discipline and poor interchanges

That sounds like we were struggling with injuries again. Countless times this season we've been unable bring on fresh legs. Plus a few times we've had to play with less than 13 on the pitch. Sounds like this might be the case again.

Think toal was done but the rest nothing could be seen. Our chairman and coach tend to go quiet when we lose so I ask both of them what is the plan if we go down? Because saying we won't go down isn't good enough anymore we're probably down now 

[Michael Ashton]

I think Dewsbury should beat Rochdale & Batley  and dare I say it we should beat Swinton & Batley. That makes only the same points as Barrow & Dewsbury. I'll study the League Express tomorrow.

[Shipbuilder]

So, we only have to go and give the Wolf pack a good trashing in Canada....

Things do not look good, today was the big four pointer that coould decide the season

[NWDuk]

Batley and Dewsbury have to play each other again yet so they're taking points from each other. You never know, could all come down the the last game of the season against Batley

[Barroooww]

It could even come down to points difference which is hugely in dewsburys favour.

Where are we taking 4/6 points from? We were dreadful today and look awful against teams around us it's only the top teams we turn up for

Well that's good because we've got a few top teams to play.

I'd have suggested we took the points from the weaker teams... But I admire your optimism! Keep it up lad!

We've beat Batley Rochdale fax and fev ran the likes of sheff in the league and york/leigh in cups close we seem to turn it up for the big games so I wouldn't say we took points from just weaker teams

I'm not doubting you. I was taking the ###### out of your ridiculous negatively.

 

Asking where the points are coming from because we have to play top teams and then casually mentioning that we can turn over top teams on our day.

Don’t think he’s being ridiculously negative I think that’s a bit OTT. I just think he’s being realistic tbh

It's called realism and that's the problem with out support we think that we're superior if we don't critisize. Where do you think our points are coming from? Bar maybe Batley at home today was our most winnable and we were dreadful, did you witness the s###e display served up today? 

[tec]

It’s not over though is it can’t give up can we .Beat Leigh and it’s game on .
