Pete I love your way of thinking,at one point yesterday all a Fev player had to do was fall to the ground and he would have scored

but made a mess of it, Fev ,were dire,by their own Fans admission,you say on form you can beat ANY team in the League,I agree there , But Fev last 3 games has seen them play outstanding and looked what happened yesterday.
The Final 8 games of the season to reveal who makes the Top 4 should be very interesting,I think you can safely say Leigh, London, and Bradford are nailed on, but yourselves, Fev, and Batley will be busting a gut to make the 4th spot, anything can happen.As for the Fax are Coming,welcome to the LSV in July,it WILL be HOT.

Very true Sparky, I said to the Fev fans I was sat with, Fax's rolling defence was brilliant,you had Fev covered every angle,and as you say one game doesn't make you Champs, you have it all to do against the Seagulls on Sunday.

Ian, will you be able to play a first team pack with all the suspensions on the way?
And with Ridyards "problems" what will your half back combination be?

Nobody not even me knows what Hock and Acton will receive by the way of suspensions ,or Mickey Higham,but we have Patterson and Fui,near ready to return,along with Dixon and we could bring Spencer back from Oldham, don't worry I'm not.As for Riddy?He is fit it's down to Jukesy who plays at half back, Drinkwater and Reynolds are doing OK, McNally is not far off full fitness,and don't be surprised to see a new signing

for the coming 8s, we will all be fit for the visit of Fax in July, even Frank and myself.

Frank fit?
Blimey are they closing all the pubs and the fag shops from now until then

I saw in the league press there were 16 referrals. Madness

The league press can't count then, there were 17 referrals. 8 for Leigh (3 no charge) and 9 for Swinton (4 no charge).

Look here... [urlhttp://www.rugby-league.com/the_rfl/disciplinary[/url rather than trusting to dodgy newspapers!

maybe it was me who lost count. It's been a long weekend

Sparky , I've seen the referrals list for the Swinton game,it was a very bizarre game, the 2 guys who were involved first Higson and But received a no Charge,believe it or not Hock was provoked ,and Higham offence wasn't that bad,I'm not sure what suspensions they will receive, some say Hock may not play again this season due to his suspension , but I hope they are wrong.

Well Charlie, all I can say is that Fax have had a grand total of 5 referrals this season, all of which have resulted in "no charge". Given the way our forwards bossed Fev at the weekend, you can't say we play it soft.

yes I believe Hock was provoked from the video I saw.


He came around the back of the melee, picked a target (who had his back to hock) and then grabbed him from behind and dragged him to the floor aggressively and certainly not in a way as just breaking up the melee. Then the swinton number 20 grabbed hocks arm to calm the situation and then Hock let rip with 5 or 6 heavy blows/uppercuts to the head whilst Ridyard held him down.
In Ridyards defence he was trying to break it up as he is not that type of player, but inadvertently by holding the player down, he was giving hock a barrage of free shots at the swinton player. I also note that the swinton player he assaulted is a winger and Hock likes wingers and half backs as his opponents because he is such a cowardly and s**thouse.
Charlie take off your rose tinted sunglasses and stop defending the undefendable. He is a disgrace to the game and should be banned before he does some serious damage to a player. Lets hope the RFL find a pair and ban this thug the game does not need him and nor does your club.
