Shut down Hooley and jam in on Manning and you've no plan B I think 3 games in 8 days, and 3 serious looking injuries sustained tonight will be our undoing. If you don't beat us on Sunday, there is something very wrong at Halifax. Then again, Halifax has always been too close to Lancashire for my liking, to not have something very wrong about it! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s to see what type of figures they’ll get for the play offs in September as they ain’t Monday night games then as they’ll be Sunday 1 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

Even less on a short week. Shut down Hooley and jam in on Manning and you've no plan B Bearing in mind we put a shift in against rams, lads been working with a short turn around, then another short turnaround before we meet your lot with tired aching bodies with a few players carrying knocks. So to sum it up fax should be favourites. But having said that they were at London, but got stuffed. It's a funny old game.

Sounds like you are saying Batley are just turning up to lie down. Now that wouldn't be very Batley like would it. In all seriousness though it does sound like both teams just picking up a few injuries and with small squads it can make a difference. Who got injured for you last night? No Ward or Lilleycrop lastnight? Im not going to lie I would be very pleased if neither played against us Sunday, I get this feeling of dread when I see their names on the team sheet. Im expecting a really close game and hopefully be good viewing for the cameras. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOGFATHER Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Hodson came off with with a head knock, Kay limped past us with an ice pack on his knee at halftime, Blake limped off midway through the second half. None of them returned during the game. All could be precautionary, but with such a short turn around it wouldn't be a shock to see some or all of them ruled out for Sunday.

Lillycrop and ward are both OK, win or lose on Sunday, no excuses from me , the best team on the day will win it 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_T Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Kay said he'd dislocated his kneecap so might be out a while? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The scrim reaper Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Everybody has their eye on this one but im not sure if this game is what's going to settle 3rd place a win for us gives us a 4 point gap going a long way to possibly sealing 3rd spot, but then we have two very difficult games after this, barrow home, London away,2 wins? where as fax have thunder and bulls at home 2 wins yes! so there could still be a few more twists and turns yet!

Maybe we have to recall Burton from Hunslet. He should certainly be match fit and showed some good signs for us earlier in the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Kaye is out and Leak is OK then l suspect we will use White as hooker replacement and Meadows to replace White as hb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phildog Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Josh got a poke in the eye, said after that he expects to recover. If not Morton to centre Perry on the wing. Glad people are asking the question that I've been slated for....why are we running on empty whilst having Everett, Collinson, Burton, Milnthorpe out elsewhere, Carr blown out and recalled to Giants etc? Get them all back and back into our game plan. Somebody said last night...ah but if we do that now they can't go back to their loan club! So? They're OUR SIGNED ON, CONTRACTED PLAYERS!! I care about the rest of OUR season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scrim reaper Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Could be a money thing while their out on loan we're not paying there wages, apparently we a struggling to pay wages to the squad we have now on our very low income unfortunately! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blake returned to the field with about 8 minutes left… Hodson was taken off due to a poke in the eye should be fine for Sunday 2 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..
