Spot on mate.our halves were awful and we got what we deserved.

Aye. When I saw your squad I thought it might happen. I thought we might have struggled in the middle with no Crossley or Peltier but luckily we didn’t. Us having Keyes and Lilley as recognised halves also helped us get around the pitch and gave us a few attacking options.

You lacked ideas without a halfback as you already know. But Murrel and Johnston will make a huge difference. Will be a different game next time around.

Best side won on the day.
Plenty effort from Fax with 2 or 3 having decent games but Bulls looked that bit further down the road as a unit and it showed with hardly any errors especially in the first half and a completion rate over 90%.
Still plenty more to come from both clubs.
Year in year out over last few seasons the Champ comp gets better and better to watch, certainly the case this time round as the season unfolds.

We often lacked ideas on attack when Muzza and Jonno were playing but as you say not quite as bad as yesterday.

Having said that yesterdays 6 and 7 have never played there together so can't be too critical up against decent opposition and RM can only find out what the answer is in the halves by trying combinations and asking the questions.

First blow out for the rest of the lads and they will be better for it.

Sounds like someone forgot that we need to register a new player. Pretty big oversight really.
