yes it was 26-16 last season to us at the shay, and the year before that you got a bonus point when we beat you 22-20

26-16 would have got us a bonus point and I am sure we didn't get one against you last season

Yes we did.

Ive just watched the game back, thought Worrincy played really well. Put the effort in taking the ball forward, made the tackles in the first half and was solid. Sure, not a good effort in the tackle for the try in the corner but time after time he was left 2 on 1 by his own centre which is just poor. He was solid under the kicking game of Fev, just got caught out with one tackle. In all honesty, other than Beswick I thought he was one of Fax's better players.

so a bonus point against fev last year no change and through to the next round of co-op cup,= progress? at this stage of the season.

apologies for senior moment =nrcup.

the TO victory at Fev last season was a cracker - irrespective of the scoreline,if only all RL games could be that entertaining ???

If the in-goal area had been two inches bigger, this thread might have had a completely different feel to it. This was right in front of me, and my first reaction was "try". If not on Sky, I think it would probably have been given. Winning at half-time, and then scoring first in the second may have resulted in a completely different outcome. Sport's a fickle old thing - that's why we love it so much!

'IF' is a big word.............

You're right, and it clearly wasn't a try. Games like this can be settled by the smallest of margins.

And you might have seen a flying pig......

I don't think Fev are that good a side, they simply wanted it more than us. In the Second Half after the Paterson no try we looked flat and pedestrian and Fev stepped up a gear with Dickens, Grayshon and that dirty get Tonks laying on a great platform for Finn and Kain to do their business. Most teams would have beaten us the way we performed in that second half.

We desperately missed a half back tonight, Danny Jones was playing Centre for some strange reason, coming in on crash balls from Black. I hasten to add if Holroyd had been playing he would have played a lot more simpler game to wrap up the points.

Hopefully its a kick up the backside we need, we lost three times to Fev last year and look what happened? Plenty of time to build and improve, but the table doesn't make pleasant viewing.

LOl!!!! Do you know, I read that so many times last season and we still, despite "not being that good", won the league with a bit to spare (notwithstanding the final outcome)!!

true, we weren't at our best on Thursday, though I thought we were very effective in attack and more so defence, once Heppy came on. If we had been upto speed and had players who were fully fit playing (instead of coming back a bit too early out of necessity), I think the score may have been greater. Who knows?
However, I'm happy to carry on watching my team that "aren't that good"!!

Fev are an average side who normally would be around 5th place. But they have probably the best British Coach in the game and he is what makes Featherstone such a good side. He knows what is needed and can change the team to suit. Powell is a Quality coach and its only a matter of time before he coaches in SL. Fev fans enjoy it while you can.
