| Quote: Rotherham Fev Fan "Do you really think so?? Crush them??
I admire your confidence. Fev have played against the big (Fax) and the mobile (Barrow) and defeated both denying each a Bp and dominating the forwards.
Of course, Friday is another day and I've watched rovers for too many years to know it never pays to be over-confident. They'll be no "country mile" sheeite coming out of rovers!!
But I'm just genuinely interested to hear what evidence you base that statement on?? How do you think you will win the forward battle and "crush" the fev pack??'"
Crush was a bit over the top, i was just responding to the guy on totalrl saying are pack was poor. Our pack are no push overs and when Gannon and Doran are on the pitch at the same time I am confident of winning the forward battle. The evidence will be on show on friday.

Your right it will be a cracker. I think the fev players and club should get a minutes applause at full time as well as the minutes silence pre game for the recent tragic time.

| Quote: VikingXIII "plus Morrison won't take the ball in for them against his old club .'"
Very much doubt it.Morro is a consumte professional and will give his all as usual. Quote: VikingXIII "
And if Grayshon plays, he wants shooting after his final performance for us. Never seen such an awful performance from a player who was playing against his future employers.
As per usual, I think that game will be won and lost in the pack. '" Grayshon was anonymous in the play off game but I would like to think he just couldn't 'get into the game' rather than deliberately playing half hearted.
I think the game will be won at half back myself.According to the commentary at Warrington in the cup game, the Rovers halves,not sure who,Briggs and Flynn?Played a very well structured and organised game,guiding the team around the park with good passing and kicking.Hoping from big games from Webster and Thacks.

| Just joking about morrison. We all know from his time at widnes he was a machine. He just went through a stage where he got knocked out about 4 matches in a row and from then on did not look the same player maybe it was confidence thing or just needed a break.

| Quote: J20 "Really?
You've said both Duffy and Morrison were pants for us on here lately yet last season without the two we struggled... think we only lost that play off game when Morro played, great championship player!'"
I don't think Morrison is poor, in fact I did say in my post "Really liked Morrsion" IMO the reason why we struggled in the pack last year was we had players like Ostick and Morrison in the front row who were too lightweight. Gannon was left to carry that pack a lot of the time and he's hardly a heavyweight himself. Morrison is a great 2nd rower, probably one of the best in the division, but surely there's no denying he struggled to make an impact from prop. Are you sure we lost just 1 game when Morrision played? we did lose about 13 games all in all last year. As for the Duffy comments I made of the Leigh board, I know he was a popular player with a lot of Widnes fans, but I just didn't rate him. He seemed to be injured a lot, came off the pitch injured a lot and was no way near fit enough to play his position - no wonder he ended up at loose forward a lot. Credit where credit is due, he played really well in the NRC final, but tbh I probably wouldn't have even had him in the squad because of his performances in the run up to the final.
Quote: J20 "
Apart from the fact he's only just back from injury, he scored at Batley by doing exactly that
It wasn't a dig at Ford, more team tactics really. I'm not saying we don't do it at all. As proven in certain games for us and from watching other teams, it does work. Ford did the same thing against Whitehaven when he pulled up. If he hadn't have pulled up injured, there was a good chance we'd have broke and scored. Thats the point I was making there are the odd occasions where we have the FB join the attack but its not very often. For example can you ever remember Yates joining in the attack (from FB) out wide and us creating an overlap? I know Yates isn't Ford, but surely whilst Ford was injured we would have been covering the same attacking moves in training? Anyways, now that Ford (and Webbo) are fit again, I'm sure we'll be all the better for it. With the amount of chopping and changing we've had to do recently, its bound to have an effect on PC's tactics and the execution of moves.

| Widnes are in Yorkshire pretty much every other week, i know the place like the back of my hand now.
Yorkshire will however never be as good as Lancashire, the people are just nicer over this neck of the woods.

| Quote: WHERESYERBALL "Fev
about a 1000 of us did sheffand approaching that did wire. Around 400 did Barrow and a good and unexpected number are making the trip to toulouse! I didn't think that was bad??
Perhaps I'm mistaken!
Not as many will do work night travel - but that applies to all teams. I would have expected perhaps 7-800 of us doing Leigh or widnes on a sunday the way we are playing. Less than half that will do the Leigh and WIdnes game due to work committments! Shame they're not on a sunday!

| Going the same way as the peg selling Leigh fans are we, mutants normally have extra powers anyhow.
