I see so much more improvement from Fev as well. Bodes well.

Really enjoyed the players with the flag just there; they seem to be really connected wi community which is nice.

Very good by Fev. Looking forward to their rematch on a fast dry pitch. If Leigh lose that one as well, alarm bells!

This game is batty.

6 players off injured by my reckoning, 2 sin bins, a mud bath and Leon Pryce asking to bring back the biff.

Love a Monday night, me! 

 

 

 

When we're taking head injuries seriously, a commentator saying "bring back the biff" isn't smart.

Tough, fair play, yeah of course, but biff is shorthand for foul play.

Very comfortable win for Fev, much the better side.  Leighs attack was pretty abysmal.

I think Kevin was right to say that tonight has been like a different sport to what most of the season will look like. Nothing neutralises attacks like a boggy heavy track

We'll see what Mcdonald and Hingano can really do when it isn't a mud bath

I don’t know how much Feath make out of Wakefield AFC, but they’ve knackered the pitch. Even allowing for the weather conditions. 

It was awful for the Leeds friendly I went to see a few weeks ago

I mentioned artifical pitches in a thread this weekend.... this sort of thing convinces me all teams need them

I’m a Featherstone fan, I’m chuffed to bits with the game and the result. But imagine what we’d have done to them on a better pitch.

It's used for rugby and football not just Rovers , at least it's ours.

Well I'm pleased for you that it's yours. Maybe you could all chip in and get some new lightbulbs, instead of having a couple of lads in each corner holding a candle.

It’s taken me a few minutes of reassuring myself Lammy isn’t at Wigan anymore to calm down after his interview. It was like I’d travelled back in time to any interview in the last three seasons. We trained well, we planned to do X but didn’t, we’ll need to stick together and so on. I’ve never seen a coach as utterly lost for ideas on why things don’t go as he’d hoped as Lammy always is.

You are right, BB, and yet...

If a boggy pitch neutralises things, how come either team could dominate in the way that Fev did?

It will indeed be good to see what McDonald, Hingano and the other Leigh players can do on warm days and dry pitches in, say, mid-June, but, for me, one of the great things about our season is that it starts early enough and finishes late enough for it not to be just about warm, dry days.  I love the climatic variation.

The good teams - the really good teams, that is - can play well in a range of conditions.

Tonight, Fev demonstrated they can play on a cold, wet night.  Good for them; now let's see them in high summer!
