Quote: for-FAX-sake "I didnt think Jonesy played that bad to be fair and i can only recall 2 incidents that he may have got wrong. The pass out wide to white who was immediately shoved into touch and the 2nd was when he charged the kick down and gave leigh the repeat set but even that im unsure could be called a 'Brainfart' as im not sure it was a drop goal attempt..either way i though the lads played well.'"
i think maybe caught in possession on the 5th late in the game in his own half, and shooting out of the line at the end creating a huge gap which gave them the winning score. You could say he was trying to block the drop but he isnt the quickest to be attempting that and Ridyard skipped around him like he was not there.
also thought with the worrincy / beswick incident after worrincy was tackled and the ball was played to black he was less than 20 metres away from goal bang in front and should have taken a simple one point and that would have been a seven point lead and no coming back at that stage you would have to say. A bit of composure from the halfs in that situation could have won the match but neither showed any, and instead took it out left where leigh had ample cover and white ended up in touch.
I agree that the game should have been put to bed before nash made a stupid high shot which was the final nail in the coffin.
I think Halifax were great in many areas and were dominant for a large part of the game in the forwards, but the halves failed to capitalise. all in all a great effort and a good advert for Championship rugby
