Quote: Bradford Badger "That wasn't the Halifax side that won the Championship. Missing were Royston, Worrincy, Nash, Brannighan, Holroyd, Beswick, Ostick, Tamghart, Larder, Wrench, and that's only the ones I remember.
Could be a tough(ish) year for Fax. Need to get all their contract disputes sorted and maybe a couple of lads on loan maybe???
Some good tries but don't get too excited yet. Tries scored at the end were when part-time players in pre-season, met already fitter, technically superior full-time players.
Definitely promising though'"
Ostick and Worrincy played (although the latter wasn't on for long). You're right though, it was a very different side. And I completely agree about not getting too excited. Friendlies at the end of the day mean nothing. But I think if we'd have lost or only narrowly won today, I would have had to move house!
