I know someone not long back said is it time we let him go which is obviously a bit premature but he does seem to pick up injuries often....

Is it Tuesday or Wednesday night that Halifax train???

The biggest joke of it all is that we are probs spending 3x more on the cap then this halifax team.

Fax doing everything in their power to disrupt this second half, players going down left, right and centre, of course they're within their rights to.

Similar to yesterday's game.Fax very well organised .But why on earth would you get to the first game of 8s and have 3 players playing alongside each other for first time and why have a half on bench?Ellis/Marsh ? Just seems unbelievable we are at this stage of season and the same problem from start are still so obvious.Hey ho it's a win but last 3 games have been very poor

Ellis is playing like he's been told we're not going to sign him he's awful today was to much 5 drives and a crap kick

Tinpot ehouse of a club. Remember the moment of that Gaz O'Brien drop goal that signified your glorious downfall. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH

Fax defended well, they do have the best D in the championship and so it was always going to be difficult today, we move on, Fax could well do us a favour in the weeks to come. Had we taken Minns off when he was injured they would've struggled to score, halftime, he goes off, they only score one try from a kick and subsequent error from rovers.

That one run from Carney though, super human.

same old problem, overloaded with average forwards no halves , a combination for disaster, the coaches call at the end of the day ,what does he see in ellis/ marsh,it beggars belief , any big salaries should have been spent on a scrum half , that aside carney class act,moss, lawler,lunt, decent perfomances, the rest very scratchy , again

We won

The problem for me is , they don't use Carney enough, especially in situations 20 metres out from the opposition line.
Another annoying aspect for me was, why the hell didn't Marsh stick to Masoe like a limpet mine, there were one or two occasions were the big man was looking to offload but no one was there to take the pass. I've said all season that we've needed a top halfback and for me Ellis was not the man, I just don't rate him, though that is just my opinion of course.
I don't know what others thought but I thought that Atkins had a good game when he came on, except for the knock on very early on, it's a pity we didn't get him earlier in the season which would have given him more time to get up to speed with the way the team plays.
For me there has been to much tinkering with the team, even after allowing for injuries, we should have had a more settled side weeks ago. I also think bringing in Masoe at such late notice was a mistake, they should if it had been possible brought him to the club earlier.
I just hope Minns recovers next week and Rovers improve massively on that left edge, otherwise I fear Leigh and other super league teams will run riot.

One less identikit prop,hornes salary combined with whatever Abdull/Ellis get paid and we could have had 2 very good half's at start of season.Whatever combination 6/7 we put out I'd say it will be the least creative in this comp
