| Would help if we had some sort of settled squad, and its like banging your head against a brick wall but when you look at Fax what a difference a settled half back combo make. Season is as good as over now, we'll get a thumping from Leigh next week and be looking for other results to bail us out to make 4th now.
Smith has been given an impossible task, we held on to Lowes for too long so he hasn't really got enough time with some of the deadwood in the squad to change anything for a proper promotion push, but it's a long way until the start of next year to make his own squad.
We start of games well enough like today and last week, but as soon as the opposition score we haven't a clue what to do. Thought we were unlucky to go in at HT behind, but second half we never turned up. Out enthused again by Fax, think some of those who played in this fixture over Easter might have learned a lesson about team spirit. Not much to shout about at the moment.

| Hey guys. Wake up. In this league people are going to mess around in the tackle. They've done it for the last two years. Haven't you realised?

| Don't think Smith has been given impossible task. He needs to get through to the nuggets that not only are the not SL standard but they are only average CH players. If they want to keep getting paid to play rugby and not get paid to work in a factory and get £30 to play rugby they need to get their fingers out,

| We can get all technical about the play the ball and speed of ruck etc.
At the end of the day Fax wanted it and we didn't. They were prepared for a fight. We weren't. We were utterly bullied.

| I saw plenty of messing about in the tackle from Halifax but I also saw plenty of Bulls players trying to con the ref by attempting to milk penalties, which is really starting to bake my biscuit now. Not only are they not fully in control of the ball because they have the opposition players arm clamped under theirs but we also have little chance of getting on a roll because they would rather thrash about on the floor than fight to get up to play it quickly. Saw it happen loads today.
On another note, I won't be too disappointed to see Charnock return to Saints. Thomas might have offered more in attack today. I rate Charnocks kicking game but Addy did the kicking today. He seems very flat footed in attack and I haven't seen a great passing game from him either.
The only positive from today for me was Howarth. He looks like he will compliment O'brien well.

It was Pitts he never had full control of it fumbled it tried picking up again and totally missed it again should have put his foot through it and leathered it too Morrisons.

Addy took over never let Charnock get involved. We played better with Haggerty in at stand off last week.

We weren't very good last week either. Charnock had a decent kicking game but other than that his game is bang average. Haggerty ran strong and had an ok game but he just played like a good 2nd rower, something that he couldn't manage today.

| Danny Addy's afternoon is going from bad to worse. He's having a bit of meltdown on Twitter after being goaded by some troll. Very unprofessional conduct.

Haggerty looked more likely to create something than aimless bomb Addy did.

That wasn't the initial point. Charnock with Addy or Charnock with Haggerty doesn't work. Addy or Haggerty shouldn't be anywhere near the halves and Charnock isn't the answer to the Bulls problems.
On a side note, I hope that Fax player that got carried off is ok. Couldn't see what happened but he looked in a bad way.

Nothing in it, it was a total accident and looked like our players elbow caught his head and slammed it in to the ground. Jumped out of the ambulance when it got to the end wanting to get back on but was eventually persuaded to go to hospital as a precaution.
