I will hold my hands up and admit to calling for calland's head last year. Well MC made me eat my words he took us to be champions. he is not to blame for yesterday

Yesterdays game was unfortunately Lost/spoilt because of poor decisions by players and ref. When A referee is not going to give forward passes, you cant blame batley when they scores tries from them. When a ball strikes gannon on the shoulder (he did not even raise his arms) and goes backwards and into blacky's hands the ref gave a knock on, fair enough but then when a batley player does nearly the same thing but also gets his hands to it and it goes to the floor the ref waves play on, consistancy i think not. The batley try from the kick which blatently was put down on the dead ball line (both touch judges standing back to say they weren't sure about the grounding in the field of play ref ignores and gives try. I am not sure what our players were thinking about when we get a penalty at the end of the first half ( blacky is clearly asking if they should take 2 points but instead go for a try on one play which we had not really managed to do all half.

Callland obviously sorted something out at half time because our attack maybe got into second gear.

In the first half when blacky was pulled into touch and then the batley number 5 started "saying something in his ear whilst pinning him to the floor nothing was done. in the second half the same player i can only say smacked the halifax player in the face instead of tackling him andthe touch judge comes on but the ref does not even speak to the player. This just seemed bizarre he did not seem to want to punish batley only having to when the touch judge came on.

And the whole penky getting sin binned for being headbutted well F### Knows.

I know i am ranting but i promise this is the last bit. Why oh why did we goe for the drop goal so early in the tackle count so close to their line with so long left. Oh yeah and why was the clock not stopped when handforth took an absolute age over that last penalty.

I was very pi##ed off at the end but now looking at the tables we only need a bonus point to go through so no worries there. we can play so much better and will do

Seriously get over it. I even heard someone on Suday say that the rugby they have watched the last 2 or 3 seasons has been dire. I was one of Calland`s critics at the beginning of last season but am honest enough to hold my hand up and say what a good job him, his staff and the players did to win the Grand Final for us. He deserves massive amounts of respect for that. The incident shown looked no different from many incidents i have seen on rugby fields both amateur and proffesional and both while i have been watching or playing. Yes unfortunatley the guy looked in a bad way but anyone watching can see that something happened in the tackle with one of Callands teamates looking like he gets a shot in on the tackle and the guy stands up and thinks its Calland.

Some people really need to give it a rest. We have lost 1 game. If we lose tommorow then yes have a go as no one will be happy but i wouldnt hold your breath waiting for it to happen cause i have a feeling the players may just be up for it.

About the same time as Matt floored that guy i used to wear women's clothes. I don't any more though.

If you like, we could ask Tony Anderson to come back? Lovely bloke.

Won nothing though ......................
