So they've done that eight times this season have they?

Bitter much?

I personally thought we were the better side, we created more chances and had a lot more if the ball in attacking positions than Fev. The completion rate was poor, especially in the first half. We had chances to win the game and didn't take them. Exciting game but I thought the referee spoiled it with the constant whistle blowing. For both sides the referee gave and missed some stinkers. Areas I think we need to improve on are defence, we still don't seem to realise a man can't run without his legs, and a drop goal kicker/attempt. We could have took one in the 65th minute. I think we also look a bit flat in attack. Fev had lots of room to move where as we didn't. Mom I would give to Webster or Dave Allen, he made some hard yards and some great offloads.

We started poorly with 2 dreadful little chip kicks in our first 2 sets which put them on the front foot and gain their early try. It took us ages to realise a way of playing against the skinny 10 meters that Leahy was using (on both teams).
Webster was the general for us again but Thacks struggled because of the skinny 10 meters. Tonks played well for them but I thought Finn was excellent and much improved from when I last saw him.
Davies was an absolute monster for us and Paddy did well too. Dave Allen started off well when he came on but understandably faded.
Ainscough was nothing like the player he was when he had him earlier in the season and you can see why he's come back to us for a run at a lower level to hopefully get some confidence back which he should do.
Overall I'm not despondent as it looked like both teams had settled for a draw until the scrum penalty got them position to get the drop goal.
We can only improve as Varks and Allen had their first games back last night after injury. Netherton will improve the more training and game time he gets too.

Last word Fev fans - Superb.

Quote: WVRLCMatt "Featherstone aren't a top of the league team, they're a ordinary team who are cheats but they seemed to get away with it. The only things I could compliment them on would be the first try and the team speed if the line in the first half but during the second half they didn't make much of an effort to get behind the ref. They held down constantly,went for the high shot constantly and aimed for Doran all game, who surprisingly kept his temper for most of it. And the two moment, which I can recall, where they pushed around our players off the ball and got away with it. How the kicker did not get atleast a talking to for manhandling Davies when he tried to charge his kick down or even when the Featherstone player pushed Ainscough over for supporting the player. Their fans were a bunch of flatcappers who didn't seem to think Featherstone did anything wrong. It was like a scene from kes in the toilets at half time. Come on Leigh

In terms of Widnes a poor defensive display at the start lead to the first try and arguably a dubious second try. Yet it improved and we managed to keep their big forwards at bay for most of the rest of he game. I thought Netherton played quite well considering we weren't spelling him with Hulme and he looked knackered after doing a lot of work in defense. We did look quite dangerous in their half but we threw it away with all the knock ons and wild passes. But as like a few of our losses this season, if the ball had bounced differently etc it would a compelety different result. Only really Aniscough had a poor game. What was Doran doing when Webster passed him the ball, why didn't he carry it on. Dumb forward syndrome, probably thought he'd have lost it by then.'"


That is the FUNNIEST thing I've ever read! love you people from round the Liverpool region, everything you say is an attempt to be funny! icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE: icon_biggrin.gifANCE:

Varks made a great impact off the bench, no nonsense hard drives

I felt the same way when Hunslet beat us this year at home. They cheated their way to 42 match points icon_biggrin.gif

It is a necessity to be a bit blinkered if your a Widnes fan.

Well, fear not. There are many incongruities in this league. You've lost three, we've lost two and you're above us in the league. icon_beat.gif

At least you won't have to put up with crap like that in Super League.

From what I belive they are bringing the bonus point into Super League. Not sure if it's next season or the one after.

I bet you all the money in the world they don't. Super League don't do anything until it's been tested by the NRL.
