[Kevin Nicholas]

The slope is said to mean it is 9 feet lower at the bottom of the ground than the top.

You mean it’s not a 20 foot drop  Kev 

[RPH]

not a 20 foot drop, KN says a 9 foot drop over the length of the pitch.

a quote from Mr Kear

John Kear said “The crossbar from the bottom end is in line with the bottom of the posts at the top end . That’s how much the pitch slopes and it’s definitely a factor “

and dimensions required for the posts.

The crossbar is placed between the two goal posts so that its top edge is 3.0m (9.84 ft) from the ground. the posts must be 5.6m apart and the minimum height of the goal posts is 3.4m

BB our field kicking hasn't been great all season, it's been so predictable, always 6th tackle, always long, we rarely put up kicks that we can challenge, relying on defenders dropping, we play on a pitch which falls away more than 20 feet...how many 40/20's have we pulled off? Varying the timing and types of kick might be useful. Somebody ring Henry Oulton and ask for his advice.

May I ask, how did you think the nineoil got its name?

Why asn't the carrier pigeon reached there yet.

Try BISSA to see if they have copies of the matches yet.

Was there really any need for the sarcasm?

I don’t think you’d have anything to moan about unless we were in super league Be happy we are winning it’s boring just moaning all the time 

[phildog]
