It's alright having a solid pack but when you've centres that are at best average, a winger that's forever getting caught out of position, struggles catching most balls that are passed to him and can't even bust a tackle, the lads a unit and should be running through brick walls, and as for Ben Johnston, what does he do apart from run up his own , he's dreadful. I watched the Bulls v Donny game and Doncaster looked more dangerous with the ball than we do, we're clueless

Exactly, we will have to improve drastically against Doncaster next week.

As for a a solid pack though having watched the other game I would have thought in yards gained our pack was fourth today.
Why do posters start new topics when there is already one there.
It makes it so confusing.
"Sheffield scorecast" would have done
Mods can you merge then please?

For the first time this season we looked poor which was a bit gutting. I think they made us look what we are also rans with a smaller budget than ever this season. Just think RM needs to be given time to prefect HIS team as still most players are from KH regime. Can see we could get through them but struggled to find any cohension in passing and trying to over complicate things some players just aren't up to speed or switched on enough on such an attacking philosophy yet. Taylor had a bad game, Johnno unfort lacking maybe from stint out and again Brown was caught out v Worrincy. But the pack played well Mitch and Luke strong as ever hope Danny Craven goes well too early to see how good he was today. Lets get behind the lads its too early too be too pessimistic think some fans do overreact I think we'll come back stronger from this!

I'll wait until tomorrow, so depressed. Birchencliffe. Badger Poachers Choice 5.7% Mmm!

Even in the cold light of the day after i dare not comment much.Thought we were doing really well under RM at start of season but we seem to be going backwards at moment.
5.7% for you ?? must have been bad you didn't go back out did you ?
ps nice to have a chat with you Bentleyman.

No, a great day out barring the game. The first time this season where I thought, like you, that we are going backwards. Well and truly beaten on the day. Sheffield were very good but to be honest, we were woeful. Rob must have been laughing his socks off as he was awarded the freedom of the Keepmoat. Mrs Huddshay could have scored that hat trick and she's recovering from a leg operation! I don't like to pick players out for criticism but if there aren't any better wingers in't Halifax local leagues than Brown its a poor do. As I say a good wander around Donny with the lads, The Doncaster Brewery Tap was great, but the less said about the game the better. On the plus side it's only one poor performance but the results need to pick up and sharpish. Up The Fax!

On a positive note the three half-backs playing together could well bear fruit in weeks to come.Unrealistic to expect it to work perfectly at first attempt.

"Sheffield scorecast" should just be what it says so the poster is right starting a new topic, stop moaning.

Whatever happens this season I really think we are in a better position than we were under KH and I'd also say that with this squad playing to his tactics we would be moaning a hell of a lot more than we are. There is light at the end of this tunnel but under KH that light would only have been a train coming the other way. This is a transitional season, next year is what we need to target, but saying that we need to keep moving forward this year. Summer's here( though I just been watching cricket in the snow) so onward and upward.

A very thoughtful and meaningful post.
Any comments on the topic?
