Fax were shocking in the seccond half, You play a somewhat Dangerous and random game plan it seems. And when the ball does not go your way, you give up field poition to easily. When you needed to steady the ship and slow the game down you carried on with little chip kicks and throwing it about wildly, Playing exciting rugby is great, But you have to know when to calm it down.

Also, Worrincy was rubbish, Gannon was one of the worst players on the pitch, Always on the back foot and he lost his head. Ben Black went into hiding. Penky looked like he wanted it but you cant do it alone, Barlow would be a good player if he wasnt always trying to be the hard man. In all honesty, your pack might as well have stayed in the changing room after HT.

Dissapointing from fax tonight, I dont see you doing too much this season.

To be fair starry, even gannon must have been surprised to be penalised for asking why he's not allowed to get up and play the ball quick when ronnie was insisting fev did! We were bad but there was a spell in that second half when I thought ronnie was showing off jis new whistle.

And let's not start with the schoolboy linesman who overturned one of the few decisions ronnie got right - one that even the widnes boys agreed with!

Brannigan never replaced, Danny Jones is steady at best and does not offer a threat. If Black goes missing then there is not a great deal of attacking flair especially when penkywicz is not on the field. Still a long way to go but you are missing something

Lack of ideas and no fitness they was the team that played sunday but it looked the other way round. Not good enouth

And that is how to throw a rugby game away in 40 mins. Rhino roy has it bang on there, branighan just hasnt been replaced and we need another hard running forward.

I dont think its all doom and gloom though, saw enough in the first half to think we will be ok. Losing to fev isnt all that bad they are a very well drilled outfit. we will just win the grand final instead .

Glad Jones opted for Fax, your pack got battered tonight.

Fax miss Branighan,Royston,Tamghart and Maloney.Mid table performance and Gannon is a penalty machine.

Your's did against Hunslet.

Who cares we are higher in the league than Fax. We beat Fev.

Oh dear! Thought we played well in first half but ref kept them in the game. Second half we were pants regardless of Rockin' Ronnie's incompetance( hold major judgement 'til I've seen rerun of game). We looked like we didn't want it in second half, poor sets of six followed by a chip - what the hell is that about (Jones not good enough I think, did same against Batley instead of hoofing it down field).
If the ref is poor then keep yer gob shut and play him instead of feeding him.
Did notice that their props stood right in front of ref at play the ball so that he could n't see the messing about, and Ronnie not good enough to spot this.

.........or DOWN !!

Literally yea

Not good enough tonight

Was never gonna be easy replacing Branighan, and Jones has not stepped up to the plate, can he be blamed though? Luke was a quality act.

Gannon is a work horse and hasnt taken a backwards step, he does concede penaltys, but so did tamghart, but I Jim as more of a replacement for Wrench, we miss having a big firery B*astard in the pack, someone like Said or Dom Maloney, as when the going gets tough we havn't got anyone who can get in the oppositions faces. And if need be, knock the crap out of someone.

I'm not right keen on Fairbank upto now either, the players Leigh had on a Dual Reg last season became top regular players for them, who they missed if they weren't availible, we wouldn't miss Fairbank if he was needed by Hudds as we have players who are as good in the squad already In My opinion.

Need a massive improvement for when we go to sheffield, they'll want to get one over on us after the whole Barlow thing, (Im sure he'll be getting the odd txt message this next week or so). Every team we play are going to want to beat us as we're the champions, but if we dont change quick then we'll be staring down a mid table finish at best

Your 2 wingers Worrincey and White are shiiiiite im sorry to say, boy did they love it running them trys in high fiving, good with ball in hand and a free run to the line but shiite rugby players and when put under pressure again there shiiite, get rid, plus Ben Black what a tosspot didnt like it at the end old benny did he

Why did we have a fullback on the bench?
That was a sub wasted to me when we needed go forward we brought on Miles and left Frank to play about 15 minutes all night. Shoot me but I still have grave doubts about the coaching decisions that are made on numerous occasions.
