RogerT Posted April 18, 2021 Share Posted April 18, 2021 Lets go lads, I do fancy this one, but not by that much, so I'll stick with my same prediction of winning by 12 points. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildog Posted April 19, 2021 Share Posted April 19, 2021 Us by 10, we've no need to fear Widnes as long as we a) keep up our intensity, b) persuade Browny that he can't conjure a try with every offload he tries 50 yards out and c) cut out the short spells of not completing tackles. Oldham shouldn't have got on the board last Saturday. Anybody know ko time and are we on any platform? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerT Posted April 19, 2021 Author Share Posted April 19, 2021 That's correct, eagerly awaiting this one, I got thinking last night that those hard matches against Featherstone have paid dividends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem you'll have of beating them is if they decide to come with some sort of game plan watched all widnes highlights and they just look like a team waiting for an accident to happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy's mate Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Hope Gilmore is fit and well? Again I think we'll have too much in all areas and will come our on top. They have some good individual players but I'll go Dogs 26 Widnes 12 Touch Rugby W(h)inger and part-time Super Hero (Thursday mornings by appointment) BATLEY BULLDOGS RLFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blind side johnny Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 This will probably be the most interesting match-up of the round and I wouldn't risk predicting the outcome. On form it should be a Batley win by about 8 but if the Widnes coaching staff are doing their job then there should be a real reaction from last week's defeat and they could come out on top. A good one to watch I reckon. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

The Phantom Horseman Posted April 21, 2021 Share Posted April 21, 2021 Widnes look a bit soft in the middle to me, they have little depth to cope with their ongoing injury issues, and apparently they've only won twice in Yorkshire since 2016. Comfortable Batley win for me. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOGFATHER Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 (edited) Vikings Injury Update - Batley - Widnes Vikings Widnes Vikings will be without captain Jack Owens after he picked up a calf injury in the defeat to Dewsbury Rams on Saturday. The fullback is working hard on his rehab to ensue that he is back fully fit as quickly as possible. Connor Dwyer is also ruled out after picking up a hamstring injury in the same fixture, and will be assessed further next week. Lee Jewitt has suffered a knock which will keep him from the squad this week, while Calum O’Neill is back in training and edging closer to a return. Jake Spedding (leg), Matt Cook (back) and Logan Tomkins (leg) all remain sidelined, with the latter the only long-term injury of the three.

Bull pups Posted April 22, 2021 Share Posted April 22, 2021 With the players mentioned missing for Widnes we will be too strong for them and going to go for a 32 - 16 win... Hopefully bowman will pick up where he left off if selected and nice to see Ben Kaye back.. Should be another cracker.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
