Murphy looks like he’s at centre with Butler and Scott in SR and R. Evans on the bench??

Not sure I like that. Having a centre on the bench and having Murphy in the centres?

I wonder if this squad has been picked based more on favourites than anything tactical

Weird line up. From looking like we've the strongest squad for a while, it looks very mix and match. Suppose Kear knows who's fit and sees them in training. But it definitely looks like he's tried to make sure certain players are in that line-up. Don't want to start conspiracy theories but none of the Wales players are missing out.

Scott and Fleming injured in 1st half. Patton sinbinned. Despite that we're 12-12 at half time.

Two assists from Lilley who's played well despite looking like he's been on the same diet as Crossley and Walker.

Batley comeback on

Great result. A few dodgy moment but overall it was good performance. Probably made it closer than it needed to be with some wasted opportunities to kill the game off but cannot grumble with the defensive effort to keep Batley pinned back.

The try from Tindall was a great finish that I'm not sure we would scored with our own wingers.

Got the win despite two injuries and two in the sin bin. Lilley made a big difference. Thought Doyle was our best forward he was everywhere.

The two Leeds lads fitted in well. Tindall took his try well and O'Connor worked v hard.

We're a much better side in defence with Crossley and Walker off the field IMO. Our line speed is quicker and we're tighter around the ruck.

Best game to watch so far this season. Usual sticky patches and my was going half a crown, sixpence, dustbin lid in the ladt 5 mins. Much better attitude and effort all round.

Hard fought win in the end. Thought the game wasn’t great in general.

Thought Millar looked great coming out of yardage. Forwards worked hard. Tindall looked great and O’Connor got through a lot of defensive work and his line speed was great as well compared to the rest.

Much needed win. Can’t see is troubling Leigh a week on Monday.

I must have been watching a different game today because I thought we were poor. We never really got into any real flow but we managed to bag the points. I felt that we had 3 or 4 opportunities to kill off the game but individual errors and poor game management kept Batley in it. One positive was our defensive effort in the final 10 minutes. The Bulldogs struggled to get out of their own half which made a DG impossible and pressured them into making some off the cuff plays that didn't come off. Considering we played a quarter of the game with only 12 men and had 2 subs remaining in the second half I'll take an ugly win like that.

Millar and Lilley the MOTM for me. The Leeds lads did well as well. Hopefully we can hang on to them for a little while.

On a side note, how bad is the track outside the pitch looking. Its the worse I've seen it.

What was the attendance figure? Nice sunny day against decent opposition and the ground looked really sp and the atmosphere awful. It really is a depressing dump that we need to leave in the past. The options are admittedly limited I know.

Our best spells were when our fatties were off the field. When they're on the line speed is slower (because they are) and the ruck defence is slower (because they are).
