| Quote: glow "First few games our defence was ruthless and had a great work ethic, we still show signs of it during the game but don’t seem sustain it, nor are we as organised, or as willing to work as a defensive unit. This to me was the basis for our early season form the opponents were beat into submission simply by how well we tackled them, this gave us the platform on which Riddy and co could work.
Back to basics, get organised, stop their supply and build from there, or we could be heading for a rough month.'"
Glow whatever happens , the next 5-6 weeks will shape our season , every game will be hard and important , and will need to be won , I don't think the Coaching Team will need telling this , our opening 3 League games were exceptional performances , hopefully we can get back to basics and win these game in the same way .

| Well we are due to get back to full form soon it is inevitable with the squad we have.
Looking forward to Sunday's game as I think it will be a cracker.

| Ridyard is a very creative player with a great kicking game.
I can see why fans are frustrated with him though and he is no John Woods, thats for sure.
If we have options at HB, we should use them. It was the first time I watched the boys on Sunday live, and there is a couple of players who should not play next week.
Ridyard is carrying a few pounds, thats for sure, but he isnt one of the 2 players in question.
Personally, if he had the defensive qualities, Ridyard would be a very good LF !

Couldn't agree more.
As I posted on another thread, 23 knock-ons, forward passes and penalties at least against Rochdale, and we still won. Keep the ball in our hands and we win by 12 (sorry 13, forgot the drop goal)

You mean like the previous week, when we probably surrendered possession just as many times?

| Quote: Mediateam "So you weren't at yesterdays game then?
1 Riddys pass to make the try for Ollie
2 Riddys pass to put Sarsy through the gap to feed Ollie to score
3, Riddys break through the line to score
4 Riddys jink and pass tp put Ryan through the gap for his try
5 Riddys cut out pass to Ryan to feed Greg for his try
etc etc etc... in every game he has played this season.
What was that line from 'The life of Brian'
'What did the Romans every do for us'
Boy when some of our fans have it in for a player they surely twist the knife.'"
So young Ridders is a stand off that can pass then?
How many video re runs did it take you to conclude that?

| He is a great player Ridyard but I have also said he is a few pounds over weight right now and to be fair I would look at other options for Sunday just to freshen us up a little. We have struggled in our last four games and the last two could have gone either way. With all due respect to Rochdale, Keighley and Crusaders we will be playing against far better sides over the coming weeks so we need to change a few things quickly
I would move Kay in field to partner Brierley in the halves. We are also running with too many grunt forwards for me so I would start Spencer and Wilkes and then I would play Goulding and Sarsfield in the second row with Haggery in at Loose. Pitman keeps his place with Armstrong as the other Centre with Higson retaining his wing spot. My team to do a job on Halifax therefore would be,
McNally
Higson
Pitman
Armstrong
Pownall / Maden
Kay
Brierley
Spencer
Penky
Wilkes
Sarsfield
Goulding
Haggerty
Ridyard
Hopkins
Beswick
Barlow
That team can come back from Halifax with the points.
Also the decision to send Alex Brown out on loan was a ludicrous one as he would walk straight back in for me.

I didn't want to completely repeat myself. In the other thread I refer to I also said "like we have in other recent previous games".

| It's definitely going to be a tough game, think it'll be our 1st real test of where we're going to be this season. I think we can win though, hopefully all the illness will have gone and the whole squad can focus on getting back to how we played our 1st few games for a full 80 min.
I think Riddy has had a few games where he's not been up to his usual standard, Rowley probably is considering moving Kay into the 1/2s and brining Pownall back. Trouble is I think Riddy is a player you only realise how good he is when you don't have him, we loose so much whenever he's out injured. Still with Kay to replace him who knows? It's up to Rowley to decide.

| Really, REALLY can't see the sense in dropping Riddy for one of the toughest games of the season. We're still posting a decent number of points, it's the daft penalties, easy yards and ultimately conceding too many tries that is the problem, something that certainly can't be put down to the half backs.

| Resting not dropping.
It's about going to Halifax with a different approach and asking another set of questions. A set that Rhino is not expecting.

| Dropping Riddy....some folk (or is it just the 1) don't half post some kerrap on here.
Also like that tvboy chap, that Leigh Centurions must 'try harder' !
FFS....we will lose eventually, but we have not yet.
Just wait till we do....the Doom/Gloom merchants will have a field day.

Another one who thinks we have already arrived in and nailed a top 2 finish ... Bless
Luckily young Rowley, like most of us (but obviously not him above ) will still think we have lot of improvement in us just yet.
