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.

no need to BLESS me mate, exactly where did I type the 'bollox' that you quoted.

Ridyard creates more tries and breaks than the rest of our team put together. I would bring Armstrong back in for Littler assuming he's recovered from his illness. Other than that I would leave the backs the same.

The pack is hard to pick, Goulden should always play if fit, he is immense. And Barlow should be up for it against his old club. But who do you leave out? tough decision for Rowley! I'd go with:

Spencer
Penky
Wilkes
Haggerty
Goulden
Barlow

Beswick
Emmitt
Acton
Hopkins

Tough on Thornley and Sarsfield but I think that is currently our strongest line up if they are all fully fit.

I think Paul Rowley should resign, and Harold Rigby Jnr should take over....he has so much RL knowledge.

Would that be because he has the ball more than any other player? However he doesn't make more breaks than the rest of them. He looks lethargic at the moment and needs a rest, Kay will be a more than adequate replacement.

When you watch the games on Centurions TV it helps to watch it as a viewer rather than a worshipper.

Careful there Reffy, You can not make constructive debate against any of their superstars. You will be shot at the turnpike for treason if you even begin to analyse the performance of the team on this board and God forbid if you actually suggest a solution.

Yes more than you it would appear and It's Mr Rigby if you don't mind.

However thank you for the vote of confidence, I am sure I would do a splendid job but I am far too old to take over the reigns at my age so I would be inclined to leave young Rowley in the hot seat to continue the fine work he is doing currently. If he needs me to suggest a few tweaks here and there then my door is always open



coaching is definitely a young mans game now a days.

It should be a really good game. Rowley trying to get his players to up their game by calling Fax the best team in the Championship and as expected Barlow doubtful.

It would probably be a mistake if Leigh played Barlow as quite a few Fax players will be out to wind him up which is easily done and he would be a liability for you guys.

It will be interesting to see how we back up after the Widnes game because the players were shot and usually after a game like that its tough to win the game the week after. I think Leigh are catching us at the right time and will win by about 18 points or so but it wont be a good indicator as to where the teams actually are.

Can't see that. Lately, (three times in the Rochdale matches) we have very nearly let 18 point margins slip. (22-4 at home; 18-0 and 28-10 away) It would seem we have a problem with being 18 points in front! Mind you, I would take that over being 18 points behind!



I can understand your point about 'fax being tired from last Sunday but, on the other hand, this will be our first game against a top six side. That might just be a shock to us.

Greg, we are poor at present. We give away too much possession and if we do that on Sunday you will beat us by plenty.
If we are a big game team then we will also find that out on Sunday - I feel 10 points either way.

I’m by no means a stats man but would think Sarsfield is fairly high up in the tackling department, he’d certainly be in my team.

If we want to win this on Sunday we will have to seriously buck up, people keep bring up the point that a win is a win, but that suggests that your almoste excusing our below par performances. I might see things differently but IMO letting Keighley,Rochdale, and nwc score so many points against us just isn't good enough. If we take a lead then keep it going, we might of got away with being sloppy in the past month but Fax will punish us!. I'd take a first loss of the season against fax as they are a quality team but I just don't want this unbeaten run to end. Come on lads dig in, we are right behind you!
