Normy_Rover Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) I think you should rest a few with a Wembley debut not far away, play some fringe players and give Fev a chance! Edited July 26, 2023 by Normy_Rover 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LINNERS Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 That's a luxury only afforded to the big money teams at the top of the table, and maybe some a bit lower down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dog forever Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Going to be very hard against fev with such a short turnaround, and fev not playing last wk. Can only see a fev win but really not too fussed as I'm expecting a loss. Hope I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Fev fan I find it too difficult to call the winner, especially as you’ve been playing so well recently. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could see some inspired performances from these guys hoping to force their way into the Wembley team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phildog Posted July 27, 2023 Share Posted July 27, 2023 Bromley, Cropper not had mention for weeks after he was picked as a starting prop for about 3 weeks and wasn't at York supporting. I reckon Walshaw will be in the Wembley side, was training pre York and probably due a match test v Bulls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair P after last year we brought in 4 from SL 2 from Aus and 1 from Leigh so I think we've always had a better than average squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially with this massive push for SL. Let's just hope that our crew put together a better than average performance to get the win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scrim reaper Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 (edited) Don't think we ever got going today, thought we look tired and a bit disjointed, thought we made it far to easy for fev with giving away too many penalties although Mr Thaler wasn't at his best either thought he gave fev everything today, we looked lethargic the whole game for me and our normal energy levels just didn't seem to be there maybe we put a bit too much into last week's game, it sometimes happens like that as leigh also got hammered after last week, think we just need to put this one to bed and concentrate on bradford now! Oh and one more thing I wasn't convinced I saw a super league team on that pitch either today! Edited July 29, 2023 by The scrim reaper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree about Batley not looking at their best, seen you play better but they must have Wembley on their minds it's only to be expected. Good luck against Bradford next week and good luck especially at Wembley. You didn't see a SL team on the pitch today we're still in the Championship and IF and it's a BIG IF we do go up that team today won't resamble one in SL. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batley are not quite good enough yet......and FEV well we are not counting our chickens just yet at the moment we are just concentrating on being a dominant championship side. Well done to your support by the way. You bring more than some clubs do and don't cause any trouble neither. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very much like Batley away with the fanzone and a good craic with them home and away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said if you get to SL the team would not resemble the team you have now! Problem is I don't see this team getting you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
