phildog Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 We did what we had to do uphill but really should have had at least a score off 3 brilliant Walshaw breaks but nobody backed up open side. Then downhill we didn't appear to have any urgency for the first 20 minutes then the conditions really turned against us when we realised we weren't going to roll 'em. Put it right next week, assume we don't get another week of rain on the pitch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scrim reaper Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 Unlucky today the conditions were a leveller Lucas walshaw said his first score was a try, photographer behind sticks even got a picture of it, but ref said no Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinb Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) I would like to know, when this weekend, we've seen sin bins and sending off for head highs, there was 1 today, Pauli Pauli, to me , personally it was a sending off or at least 10mins. So you can nearly take somebodies head off but get 10 mins for argy bargy. Inconsistent referees. But well done guys for working very hard today.

Tbf Colin, I was up in the top stand and I didn't think it was that bad tbh. It was a lazy arm, rather than anything malicious imho. To quote Kendall in the Leeds game, it wasn't a clenched fist job. I would like to see the pass from Gilmore to Morton again though, where the try was ruled out, it looked no different to the pass he put out for Campbell's try last week. A game we could of and probably should have won. Just too many handling errors. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't fault the effort though, on another day one of those passes would have stuck or the support would have been on point for one of the Walshaw breaks in the first half and we'd be 3 wins from 3. It was always going to be tough in those conditions for a footballing team like us. Edited February 13 by DOGFATHER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a lot of the game we looked most into it, beating York up the middles in tough conditions but the ball wasn't sticking at the key moments.

Piggy's mate Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 It just wasn't our day!

They certainly aren't any better than us, just too many mistakes and a ref who didn't see it our way I thought York were the better side overall, less mistakes, more field position and more points scored generally shows that. Neither team had chance to create much and that probably suited us being a halfback down. Think Mr Pauli was lucky to stay on considering the amount of cards shown lately but if it was more a lazy arm then a penalty probably was sufficient, although I’d have been fuming had it been the other way round and that player then produced a pass to help win the game for you. Horrible conditions to play Rugby in but both teams put 100% effort in, nice to finally leave Mount Pleasant in a good mood. 2 http://www.alldesignandprint.co.uk Printing & Graphic Design with Nationwide Service Programmes | Leaflets | Cards | Banners & Flags | Letterheads | Tickets | Magazines | Folders | Brand Identity plus much more Official Matchday Programme Print & Design Partner to York City Knights, Heworth ARLFC, York Acorn RLFC & Hunslet RLFC Official Player Sponsor of Marcus Stock for the 2020 Season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s where why I wasn’t happy about Pauli nor Oakes staying on the field after both committed sending offences…. waste of time asking the rfl for clarification and constantly in the decision as Oakes ran 20/25 yards to be involved… anyway we didn’t have the best afternoons but we’ll get back as a team with manning and JC in there I’d say today was our strongest team so far… let’s go again next week Edited February 13 by Keep The Faith 1 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

BridKnight Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 (edited) Did Ross Oakes get a bus from Dewsbury to run onto the Batley pitch or was his sending off offence committed in the Rams v Eagles game? Great effort from both teams in terrible conditions. p.s. KTF has now edited but originally had Ross Oakes as a York player! It’s actually Will Oakes at the Knights. You’re welcome Dogstew!

toffeedog Posted February 13 Share Posted February 13 We got dragged into.one out rugby and.pushed the pass too many times. We didn't try turning them round enough . To be honest york we're very organised and Ellis was for me the difference great kicking game which we didn't have today 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill H Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I cannot comment on the refs decisions as clearly I'm biased. Had one of the trys been awarded during that dominant spell towards the end of the first half then I do think that we would have gone on to win. At the end of the second half York looked to have more in the tank and found a way over our line and good luck to them. Either side could have won the game. Neither side deserved to lose. Congratulations to the winners. I liked the quiet way that the game was refereed, no prima donna stuff. If he got the Walshaw disallowed try wrong then it's a shame but he can only give what he sees. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silcoates Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Good old Batley- ATT. N/A-NOT GIVEN. the only club in the league not to . I'll guess 1300. ha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildog Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 The pass WAS forward, not even the hope of arguing that the first trajectory was backwards! I would also doubt a 1300 crowd be surprised if it was over 1000. You can get one touchdown wrong in those conditions but to disallow Gledhill's effort was a glaring error. It could have affected the entire rest of that half as the game would not have progressed in the same way afterwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
