phildog Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 I knew we couldn't be as bad in 2 consecutive halves but we tried for the first 10 minutes of the 2nd and the first half was particularly bad! Fortunately all 3 halves decided to play well at the same time and of course that chase back from JC!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this could be closer than is being predicted, there's nothing more dangerous than a cornered animal, I reckon the rams will be fighting for everything on Monday! Thought dewsbury were excellent first half, where as we looked half asleep thought Meadows made the difference when he came on! To be honest I wasn't feeling too optimistic about the second half although talking to dewsbury fans they weren't optimistic either as they had been in similar positions all year and still lost, I thought second half we knuckled down and really got stuck in to dewsbury our completion rate must have been 80%+ two turning points for me Campbells wonder tackle and sykes sin binning how many times has he cost dewsbury with ill discipline? We did it tough but got the win hopefully this will gear the boys up for bradford on Sunday, Well done boys! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep The Faith Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Our bench changed the game last night meadows had his best game for us, Dane manning outstanding again I thought we were lacking confidence in the first 50 minutes but we built from the pressure and did enough to win Sykes was in lucky to see yellow should of been red… move on to Sunday and the rest of the season 3 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

Needs to add a bit of size/muscle but plays well above his weight. For me, when I've watched him on TV at Cornwall he hasn't been that outstanding but tonight he looked good.

bromleybulldog Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) I know it doesn't matter now but did no one else notice the final pass in the first Dewsbury try? Winger was spot on the 20 yard line when he passed and Sweeting caught it half way to the 10. Ref and TJ completely ignored it. No doubt BSJ will tell us all about momentum, coming backwards out of the hand and other relativistic theories but for me it was a clear forward pass.

phildog Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 It was the only forward pass that went unpunished, not just from Dewsbury either (nor just this game!). I'd go as far as to say that 90% of short passes out if dummy half are forward. The pass which led to Dixon setting off on that run was directly opposite where I was on the railings and the TJ was right there. We also had at least 1 on the short stand side that we got away with in the set which led to the cross movement which led to George's try. I agree with others about hoping Dewsbury's demise is short and their effort last night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
