Well well well. Watch it last night on Premier Sports. Great effort, especially in the 2nd half. Agree the big thug Pauli Pauli should have been sent to put the kettle on for that cheap shot.
Great win!

Was good to see some genuine effort and will to win. That got us the win. If we see that kind of effort each week then you can't complain whatever the result.

As for Patton I think we're better off without him, there are a lot of rumours going around about his attitude and you do wonder if there's no smoke without fire.

What was pleasing was when York had repeated sets of six midway through the second half and the commentators saying that a try would result in the next few seconds. It was a superb effort.

We should also have been awarded a try after about 73 when the ref claimed the ball had been held-up. Looked fine to me.

That was a try any day of the week.

For one thing, once Ant Walker slides in with the ball under him, there's no way anyone is getting their hands and feet underneath the ball!

Towards the end of that when we were keeping York at bay, I thought to myself that I'd be sad to see us lose but be incredible heartened by the sheer effort. The icing on the cake was to see us hold on for the win. That's the most hardworking and gutsy performance I've seen us have in quite a while and it's a bit of a tonic.

Just remember “it’s not the same if you’re not at the game…..!”

Genuine question for anyone on here who's up to speed with the ever changing rules of RL (impartiality please):

Should York's first try have stood?

Hingano plays the ball as near as dammit on the Bradford line and dummy half Jubb dives (at least partially) through Hingano's legs to score. Surely Jubb could be said to use Ata's body as a shield to obstruct the try line defence?

All answers welcome (bar CD's)!

Sorry, first things second, congrats on the massive win last night.

Pretty sure you can't dive through the middle of the ruck but I'm not 100% sure.

No and he didn’t play the ball correctly either. But we didn’t play the ball correctly for Lawford’s try so won’t be complaining.

There was a forward pass in the build up to their try before half time and we had a perfectly good try chalked off too. Plus Pauli Pauli should have been a straight red. Right now though it doesn’t matter.

Neither PTB would have passed muster back in the day but in this day and age as long as the tackled player has previously got back onto two feet, the "ball playing" foot doesn't seem to need to touch the ball. If anything, Hingano's foot might have touched it - just!

Regarding the "forward" pass, this blasted momentum rule seems to have really muddied the waters. Who the heck knows anymore? Back on the 1st of April (of all days), Leigh nilled Dewsbury by 44 with the visitors having a sole score chalked off for a forward pass. Bongser was sitting next to Charlie Caroli, virtually square on to the pass, and we both thought that the try should have stood - and a good one it would have been too.

Only seen the highlights and therefore can't comment on Walker's disallowed effort or on Pauli x2.

Onward to 'Haven at home.
