Easy Halifax win.

Agree with all the above.

Hopefully Fax have blown their load with the win against London and we catch them cold. However I can see Fax winning at a canter unfortunatley! Hopefully not though!

We're second favourites, definitely, but who knows? It'll be a lovely pint (or so) in the three pigs, so it will be a nice day out - win or lose.

i think the extra 3 days rest our squad have had will be a telling factor. although expecting it to only be a one score game either way - hoping there's a big crowd and decent atmosphere

I’m looking forward to it but it seems as though Fax have got their act together after some pretty ordinary performances. It depends if they continue like that with their quicker players in the middle. When I went to their game versus Leigh their defence didn’t look great but they were good enough to win without ever looking in real danger. They scored without too much difficulty whereas we had to capitalise on mistakes to get the win.

If we actually try to play rugby before the 65th minute we should give them a really good game but if it’s up the jumper stuff then Fax by 12.

We certainly have enough firepower to trouble Halifax. My worry is the slow starts. It was almost a blowout yesterday and and as slow start against Fax at Fax won't be reversible.

Strongest team out, no messing about with positions. Get in the game from the kick off.

Oh, and I hope we get Fax in the next round of the cup. Big crowd, pay day for two local sides

Even stevens for mine. Our squad depth will help us out over the Easter period for sure. I'm going Bulls by 4.

God I hope not. We'll end up playing them 3ntimes in the space of 5 weeks. It will be a difficult sell.

Hard to predict which way this will go. Fax have put in one good performance this season and that was last Thursday when we had 7 or 8 regular first team players missing so it will be interesting to see how many of those that are available come straight back in to the team. Expectations were really high before the season started and ironically it were the Bradford game that showed we were quite a way off the pace that we probably should have been at and it has not got much better since then. I would take any win but it really would not be a surprise if we lost this one if we go back to tried and trusted.

GFB. Fax have actually put in two good 80 minute performances this season to date. The London game as you state, plus the Dewsbury match which resulted in a 26v0 win. Interestingly, in neither of those matches did we use a loan/dr player.

Ha. Love it.

Within the spcece of 5 weeks ill get to see us whoop Halifax twice, beat L****s and have a weeks holiday in Toronto.
What a time to be alive!!

Scott Murrell not named in Halifax's 19. That's got to be a boost for the Bulls.
