Liam Knight awesome again shame we couldn’t keep him

Knight is definetley worth keeping around.

The Fc roadshow rolls on (and on and on!!)


Apart from the two penalties which led to Williams try, the first half was about as perfect a forty minutes of rugby that we have witnessed in a long long time from us. We ran hard, we tackled hard, we looked sharp in attack, and when the chances came our way we took them.


Second half was a bit more of a struggle. Thought Wire upped their game and when they started to move the ball quickly from side to side they began to stretch us a fair bit. But we scrambled across often enough to limit them to just the three tries. It was a good job our old scrum-half didn't have his kicking boots on or those last few minutes would have become very nervy!


Once again we look a different side when Herman and Knight are in tandem, they are a real handful for the opposition. But everyone played their part and contributed to a massive gutsy win.


11pts from the opening seven games!! This is way beyond anything even the most super-optimistic amongst us could have dared dream of. Bring on the top of the table clash (pt2) next Friday.

Eleven points from seven games is our best start since 2017.

Knight really is showing to be one hell of an acquisition to replace Ligi. He’s improved every game and looks to be settling in to SL well. 


Thought Cust was again a very good foil for Sezer which allows him to be more influential. He might not be making the highlight reels but his impact on the team is a definite positive. 


Really was a great effort from the players today given and fully deserved winners today. 


Hats off the JC who has done and is doing a great job turning things around, long may it continue. 

In the post match interview coach Cartwright singled out Rapana for his performance which included comments on him being all over the field with his hard work effort.


Loved the match!

I thought this performance was an exceptional first half , and a below par second half 
As for individual performances, the forwards were outstanding, especially Hardaker.
However Rapana, is beginning to be very much a 'rocks & diamonds' type of signing.
His first half assist to Briscoe was sensational, but after that, I felt he had a shocker.
His 2 errors, led to 2 tries for Warrington, the head high shot led to the penalty, and missed tackle on Williams, then the unenforced knock on , which led to a try for Ashcroft.
In my opinion, he has a knee issue, which prevented him from leaping to catch the high balls against KR, thus Cartwright moved him to centre yesterday, it was noticeable he was wearing a knee brace in the 2nd half.  From an experienced international player, I feel he's been very frustrating to watch.Ashworth needs to stop, barging player's off the ball, this doesn't achieve anything..
Thought Cust was excellent again, and Pryce at FB could be a game changer.
Happy with the win, but a lot to work on for next week.

I wasn't able to watch the game last night. Anyone know if you can watch the full game on catch up? Sky say yes when you Google it but I can't find it. Thanks. 

No i don't think you can watch again.  Some games have appeared on YouTube though

I don't think Sky Sports replay the Red Buttton games. A shame as they replay the main broadcast games a few times. Salford/Leeds for example is being shown a couple of times at least next week and on Tuesday morning they are even reshowing the opening game between Wigan and Leigh again in full.

I read on twitter that yesterday while our game was been played live, sky were showing in on the red button, while the main channel was just playing a replay of another game. It's just nonsensical.

Well what is he then?….isn’t he now injured AGAIN….is it a exaggeration to say he is injury prone then…like I said,I rate him but we can’t get him on the pitch for a decent run and Knight would offer more value but I don’t think it matters what I say as you have your opinion and it won’t shift…hows the clique btw.

FWIW,I agree about Cust…he has been very very good this season but some won’t change they minds about him as the didn’t want him here to start
