The video ref needs to be given control to the cameras in my opinion. I have 0 idea if that is technically possible. I assume the video ref is somewhere else and not actually sitting in the control room. But if it can be achieved, with some training to all the officials on how to operate it, then it would make things a much quicker process. As you say, it gets tiresome listening to "to back to that last angle. No, the last angle. Now run it back further. And go slower. No, slower! Go back again please. No, back on the play, not back to the last angle"

This is just for you and the other ladies who dont like what i post and then complain when i dont.
I was actually at the match last night unlike you and most others on here and drove back to Spain last night so had a very late night.
Our win was great but unexpected but we rode our luck for 30 minutes then gained our reward with the little possession we had.
Clear to see the fitness levels are far higher and our defence was outstanding and we actually had some attacking shape when we did have the ball so its big raps from me to the coaching staff especially whoever was charged with defence.
We have two young gems on the wings,and the halfbacks with Asiata clearly showed what we have been missing there.
All the players played a part.Ligi Sao deserves a mention as does Lane for his non stop defence and workrate.
As for next week we are screwed now in the second row,Just cant see Holmes putting a run of games together.
Good night for the club and fans, lets not get carried away but at least we can see that with good defence and structure we can keep in games without been blown away

Interesting that you use "ladies" as an insult. Bit sexist.

Of course you did



Just like the forum.

I don't think anyone was complaining. Most of us were enjoying the silence.

Fair play to you for making the journey yesterday. The support from the faithful came across very well (even through my ipad!!) and as you were a part of the throng, a thumbs up to you.
In your continuing role as the pantomime villain on here, I have no doubt you will enjoy your moment!

This echoes my thoughts on last night. The major difference between last night and the past 2/3 years was attitude, commitment, work rate and organization. If we can replicate that over the next seven months we shouldn't have to suffer a repeat of recent times.
If we have a similarly convincing win on Friday I'd put your house on us completing the treble, it won't take much before we all get carried away on here knowing us lot

For me what showed more than anything not only the measure of the man that John Cartwright is but also the type of coach and leader of men he is, just watch the video of the singing of Old Faithful.

The way he takes the back seat by stepping away and letting the players, staff and owner enjoy their moment is just pure class. In that action alone it shows we have a top quality leader & coach.

My Barometer says top 6 after 9 games!

I confidently predict that wherever we are after 9
Games we won’t finish more than one place ahead of
that, so let’s hope for 6-7th

If we do lose to Wigan in the CC then maybe the
weeks off will help our league place

Nearly positive. Shame about screwed in second row. Another way to look at it is that there’s an opportunity for someone else. Glass half full and all that. I think yes its one game but we look like an outfit who won’t be in the bottom 3

Your dedication to watching The Dobbins is incredible, driving back and forth from Spain to Craven Park is indeed a feat worthy of your unfaltering support of the Darkside.
