I think Bloemy played for us more than "once"

DIRE? haha.
4/4?? and still unhappy! We'd have lost that game last year!

Keighley are no mugs , well done cougars , good result at fax.

Some times you have to win ugly and thats what we did. Keighley came with a clear game plan to slow us down and the ref let them do that so fair play to them. To be honest i thought the weather suited Keighley more than it did us but in previous seasons we would have lost that game but i didnt think Keighley looked like scoring in the second half where as we bombed a few chances.

Keighley will take a few points off the top teams this season as Batley have already seen so i think its a really good win for us and it was always going to be hard to back up after Sheffield.

I know its only peoples opinion on here but for goodness sake. Played 4, won 4, top of league!!!! What more do you want. Enjoy it, we have spent too many seasons previously not doing too well. I think Karl is doing a great job for us, lets give him our support and stop moaning. ENJOY!!!!!!!

Amen to that. we've had away wins at Sheffield and York so far which if I recall correctly both grounds we lost at last season. It's going to be a good seaon.
BELIEVE!!!!

I thought Fieldhouse was amazing how many bombs did he field and never dropped one, in those conditions under the lights as well that was a terrific effort and crucial as in such a tight game giving away field position was crucial.
Keighley are solid and tackled very well, they do rely on slow play the ball and I am not sure it will work all season for them they need more in attack although we also have a solid defence, they will do well though.
Our kicking game was poor BUT it was the right thing to do by Handforth pushing them back time after time they never looked like scoring in the second half really.
Decent crowd, not sure how many ame over from Keighley I thought there might be a few more but it was a decent turn out all the same by the sound of it. Good luck to them, we can play better though too much one man stuff last night, we went away from the good stuff we did at Sheffield.
I am surprised how erratic we are as I thought under Rhino we would be more consitant but hey we are top of the league and have played two good teams in Keighley and Sheffield.

Both defenses did well, both coaches wont be happy with the kicking games i expect, and while it wasn't a classic, it was interesting and great to see the reactions of Ashall and Handforth on the whistle, I was quite impressed with the way Thacks, Ashall, Penky and co stepped up in the final quarter, getting us chances down the other end and the pack played sensible patient RL to close out the game.
Mr Bloem needs to tighten up on play the balls, lying on, slowing down (both sides) and probably was a bit inconsistent on how far back he was taking the defensive lines, he did ok though, i think he just needs a couple of tweaks and hell be fine as ref.
All in all im chuffed the way our lads have off days but grind out wins, its a great asset to have.

played 4 won 4 enough said and as previously mentioned 2 wins at places we lost last year. Well done lads.

No disrespect intended but rather a silly comment. Perhaps you were the one who also said it on leaving the East Stand last night. Yes he did play for us and Castleford and Huddersfield and Widnes, he also played for South Africa and Scotland. He is also a personal friend of Brian Smith at Warrington and Brian Mcdermott at Leeds. Now, if he realises his ambition to referee in Super League, by your estimation that's quite a lot of games he will have to miss. Having also played in France that probably means he can't referee Catalans. Incidentaly he has a very attractive blonde wife but this didn't disqualify him from referreing the Nordic Cup between Norway and Sweden.
Hopefully he will be playing today for Stainland Staggs against Halifax Irish. He should try and win this as he has no Irish connection. O'h blast, he likes Guiness.

Just because he spotted that knock on late in the game?

I actually enjoyed last nights game! And I agree with earlier comments that keighley matched us all night, credit to them they had tactics and they almost worked. I'm sure against other teams if they defend like they did against us, and with the likes of Jones and Obst going forward they will definately make the play offs. I think a draw would have been a fair result. But well done to fax and 4 wins out of 4 sitting at the top our confidence can only get better and we know how well we can play.

Your right and I also forgot Doncaster. That makes two more.


I would also add that Jamie is a good friend to the club but, I doubt he would let any allegiances get in the way of his officiating ambitions.
On second thought, I think he would send of Lee Briers simply for tying up his boots incorrectly.

Halifax 12 - 6 Widnes - 2006/7??
