We were pretty rubbish for 60 minutes, but Swinton weren't the better team. The Lions gave it their all but they're a level below Fax, other than their scrum half and one of their centres, who both had great games. It was Fax that squandered the chances, with both Swinton tries coming from errors on our part.

One thing that totally bemused me was Muzza's "no try". He planted the ball an inch or two from the line and then rolled it over onto the whitewash all in one motion (I was in the South Stand directly in line with this). I'm not sure of the ruling on this, but I'd have thought it was either a try (the ball hit the whitewash) or a penalty (for grounding short and promoting the ball to the whitewash). Does anyone have a clue what the correct decision should be? I'll ask on the VT as well, 'cos this is bugging me!!

Ian, we were very lucky yesterday, the best team lost. The week previous we hammered London and could have won by a far bigger margin. Make of that what you will. Up The Fax!

Pete I was only winding you up Andy Greg was at the game yesterday and told me this morning Swinton were very unlucky to lose,its still 2
oints for you though,personally I think it's going to be a great second half to the season,in reality,I've given up on the top 2 spots for Leigh, as I think Toronto and Fev will occup them,then it's Toronto, London,Us Batley and Fax for the other 2, bring it on, Summer Bash should be very good.
