Well today we were beaten by a better side on the day,go forward aggressive forwards,good half back combination and one or two nice moves plus PAssion. We were strangely subdued with no creativity with only SM trying to manufacturer something. I am afraid today proved once and for all that White is not the answer, but Brambini would have been. Never onwards and upwards we march to Odsal to create a bit of history.

shush...they will all want him

A truthful assessment on the two teams performance today.

Couldn't ask more from Batley, well done the dogs best team by far.

Couldn't ask less from Fax, pathetic, should be sent to the other dog house.

From an entertainment perspective, what a waste of money Fax, the only thing that got me up out of my seat was to let my misses go for a pee.

This is Grix's acid test now. I am in no doubt that we will put on a performance next week. After that, tough games against Leigh, Bradford, Fev, Toulouse, Toronto, Widnes all with a long trip to Barrow away. I wasn't there today but not sure why Scott Grix was back at full back after last week. The backs are difficult to pick. I saw salty scored 2 today and JWH also scored. Both Robinson and Sharp playing well. Will be interesting to see who we bring in to replace Butler.

As I have only sen what is on here and read the reports, I hope some of the 17 that played are ashamed to pick up their wage checks this week.
No complaints if get beaten by a better team, but to roll over and have your belly tickled....

I didnt think I would say it this season but we missed Kavanagh. I didn't expect anything from Tangata after his long lay off so he didn't disappoint and added nothing to his pack but at least he had somewhat of an excuse. Fleming must be one of the biggest props we have had play for us in a long time but has no aggression and very rarely wins a tackle. Grix was aful at full back and the pass he threw to Robinson for the Batley try was a shocker. One good game for White against a poor Dewsbury team and people were calling for his inclusion but the truth is if we want to be a lower Championship team then he might get a game or two at best. If we want to be a top 5 team he should be nowhere near the team.

You can't help but feel the league is gone after a loss like that against, lets face it, an average Batley team and it will be two desperate teams next week as Bradford probably feel similar.
