I think you'll be there or thereabouts come the end of the season.. Once we get the firm pitches your wingers & full back will come into their own. Good luck for the rest of the Season

Chris, Crosfields

Cheers Chris you too, looking forward to playing at your place

Is there a link for the NWML

rlwww.northwestrugbyleague.co.ukrl

It's a bit slow but light years ahead of the old NWC site.

Cheers Billy, just realised I'm missing the derby

very interesting stuff! the interchange props were:

A Bury player from day 1 who has had a winter season at a higher level and who has never trained as hard.

A Union 'winger' who joined us last year and who got thrown in at the deep end 3 weeks ago when asked to prop. No experience at all of the position but is showing he can do it...

So...thoughts on yesterday's game?

My first thought...errors!! Too much ball turned over, too many penalties. Made it VERY hard for ourselves and let them into the game far too much. When we had the ball and started to play they couldn't handle us, and when we shipped the ball the tries came.

Positives - some of the goal-line defence in the last 5 minutes, with set after set battering our line, was brutally epic. Ok, so they snatched one at the death but it was an epic effort. Our go-forward when we controlled the ball was fantastic, some great running from a few forwards, and when the handling was good it led to us scoring. Half-backs were good, nice to see them both backing themselves and causing problems.

Personally, felt sluggish and out of it yesterday, found it hard to switch on and get into the game and was definitely off form. Was pleased to put our No.7 away for his try, and was lucky to snatch my tries in the last 10, but overall very poor after a decent game last week, need to improve.

Good to get the win with lots of improvement to come.

We should have blown them out of the water, if balls would have stuck it could have been 30-40 points difference. From the sidelines it was good to watch at times and also frustrating, a win is a win though.

i think we ground out the win to be honest, it was a small pitch which made it hard to throw the ball about, i think our forwards were excellent, they made alot of yards and put a massive shift in in defence. pretty disappointed with the number of sets we completed, but to play so poor and get the win shows we have turned a corner. i think u played well cronus it didnt show that ur head wasnt in the game, i didnt get a negative vibe from you at all.

personally disappointed to get sin binned for the worst ashley young dive by their player but it happened and the team dealt with it really well.

also note to self... change name to bronco6

Don't be too hasty... could be Bronco16 before too long, or maybe even BroncoATeam7!

ever so much abuse!!! ha i dont know how to change it anyway

Good luck tomorrow against Bolton.... will keep updated from danny the twitter

What if Danny the Twitter is playing?

Actually, I'll just give it to Dean. Panic over...

Well done on your good start to the season, it is good to see rugby league in Bury not only being played but being successful.

It is important that the players remain level headed and develop each week so that you can maintain your strong start.

Good luck to all involved.

Good luck to both teams on Saturday....
