| Thank you for your reply.
To be fair the ref did look in pretty bad shape, but surely the RL should be watching these games and pick up on the spoiling tactics and amend the rules or ensure that refs crack down on it. This will sound biased as I am a fax fan but the quick rugby in the last 15 mins was so nice to watch.
I understand the basis behind why teams would do the kick out, but surely a 40 - 20 would have an even better outcome, nice idea on the penalty for negative play.
It is the first time this year that I have seen us play and I think that we did struggle without the quick play the ball, until we got close to the line. Can you honestly say that attacking from afar in last nights game we looked like scoring (without a quick play the ball). I agree with playing to our skills and I think that teams should get off the tackled player a lot quicker. This makes the game as a spectacle a lot better and tidies up the ruck area for non fans who are watching our game for the first time.
That suprises me about the crowds. If I am ever in that neck of the woods I will defo be coming to watch a game.

Im too getting sick of some of the poop posted on here. Awful night, ing it down, awful conditions, played most of the game with 15 men and kept ourselves in the game enough to be in with a shout and looked the fitter team at the end despite all that. Did we really play poorly? Not in my eyes. It was a rough tough exciting game against a team who make it tough on their own ground and we dug in and won. We arnt/wont be the only team to struggle there.
You cant win every game by 30 points, sometimes you have to tough it out and the best teams are the ones that are good enough to win games that others would lose. That was one of them last night.'"
Would we have won that game last year?
or the york away game?
or the Swinton away game?
my opinion would be probably not.
They only bad thing to come out off last night is the injuries, everything else can be taken as 'things to work on' which Rhino will improve in training.
Well done Fax.

| In hindsight it was a very good result, as Norman said those were the sort of games we'd have lost last year, things wouldn't be going our way and we'd fold but last night was different. While I think we should probably have a more elusive and clear 'Plan B', we did still come away with the win last night and hey, no teams perfect. Also, we can't forget these aren't the usual teams we've played against in the past where we should expect an easy win, most teams in this division are very well organised and have players who can do a lot of damage. Dewsbury have caused Leigh and Batley big problems and they've beaten Keighley so summing it all up, it's actually a very good result especially with the short turn-around and conditions.

Well Greg you should know. I said we played poorly, I still enjoyed the game and feel I have the right to express my opinion. Quite a few people I spoke to agreed with me. We showed courage and fitness but I stand by my comment. We played poorly.
O'h and an extract from todays courier.
“Rob wasn’t having his best game, I thought our backfield players were poor in general, but he showed great commitment, speed and athleticism to get back and make a tackle he probably had no right to make".
Looking forward to seeing you after you tell Karl he is talking "poop"
Just let me know what ward your in.
Best wishes.

| I don't care who we are playing there all tough games for different reasons.
Dewsbury at home included.
In the first half I would have liked us to have kicked the Rams into their own half on the last play and had them run it uphill a bit more.
The completion rate as been averaging low lately and our line speed in defence needs to be a bit quicker but for all the work in progress points were still getting the results just hope we don't run out of bodies with the injury list that's rising.

| Totally disagree, I watched as a neutral and thought Handforth had a good game, he created two trys and his second half kicking was excellent, pegging Dewsbury back time after time.
If your looking at who to blame look no further than thackery, I didnt even realise he was on the field till mid second half.

Agree with that. Handforth is copping for it bescause his half back partner is under performing.
