| I normally go through 4 cigs during a match. Last night i got through 11. That's how tense and thrilling it was. 
Champions win somes games "ugly" throughout the season. This could be one of them for Fax in 2012. Top o' t'league!!!!  |

spot on there!
The teams that eventually end up challenging for honours in any sport win games when they are not at their best.
last night we did exactly that.
we were abit off, the weather didnt help, and fair play to Keighley they seem to have got a great defence.

Officeboy. Saying the opposite of everyone else just to get attention since 2002.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3253.jpg |

A lot of people are mentioning our kicking game being poor, but Rhino commented afterwards that it was 'magnificent'.
Perhaps people only think a kick as being good if it goes between or behind defences? There's no doubt it was the kicks that kept Keighley pinned in their own half for most of the second half and in that case seems to have done what was required, and the chases were certainly effective, especially when Tadulala was running them out - he looked threatening every time.

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 was in the South Stand last night so that wouldn't have been me.
All I ask is that would you have been perfectly happy if the situation had been the other way around and it was a former Keighley player who'd been one of the officials?
I actually think he's a good ref, having seen him referee our game down in Toulouse in the NRC this season and I don't think he affected the outcome of the game. But let's be honest, if he used to play for Halifax and he still turns out for an amateur team in the Halifax area it's not exactly what you'd call a neutral official is it? Especially for a derby game.

I do get your point of view but its like to old agument of referees being aloud to referee games involving their home town club I do not agree with it but it happens. |

On the subject of the ref being linked to Fax,
I don't think it effected things in the slightest.
I have seen games when it has had the opposite effect before and they are
even harder on the club they are linked to.
I have also seen Clubs question a choice of Ref with the RFL before saying, "By the way the ref you have picked is linked to our club for..............whatever reason"
The response the RFL will give is We Choose the ref. End of Chat.
He had a good game on the whole.
What was good was the atmosphere in The Shay, both sets of fans had some good banter and it was in my opinion Rugby League the way it should be.

Well said, we always have a great time, well when we are winning we do. Some of us can be right miserable so and so's when we lose. Going to be a happy year.

And he didn't play for Stainland Stags against Halifax Irish today. Apparently someone from Keighley objected to him playing on the grounds that he likes diddly diddly music.

To be fair on that I agree with you on that as well.
Even though we lost, I'm really proud of the way we played last night. We showed that the win at Batley was no fluke and we're a pretty good Championship side capable of mixing it with the very best in the division. After all the batterings we've taken from you guys over the years I think we earned a bit of respect.
I can't wait to have a crack at Fax again back at Cougar Park. Hopefully the atmosphere will be just as good.
After last night's game the small matter of Warrington at home on Sunday should be easy for us. |

seriously, I wouldn't back many teams to get a result at cougar park this season, think you have every chance on making the serious rounds in the play offs and who knows a GF appearance.

I thought the 2nd half was a good display of excellent defending from both sides, nothing given away. And it took a drop goal to win it.
