6-0 down I thought here we go again, typical Fax big game and dont turn up but then I remembered different team and different coach not a chance that we would not put ourselves in with a chance of winning the game and we did that and more.
1-18 all play their parts and the lads on the field totally dominated their opposites. I wonder if John is ready to admit he was wrong about our star water carrier.
What an improvement in him, like Chris Rose said after the game, at the moment he is one of the best forwards in the comp, thats not luck, thats grit, determination, hard work, and good coaching. The rugby we play is brilliant to watch and our defence is first class and even as we tired a bit in the middle of the 2nd half we still had enough in the tank to pull away in the end.
Obviously the job is nowhere near done, if results go as the table suggests they should go we can afford to lose to Sheffield and Bradford and finish 4th but we have the small matter that we owe Sheffield one which was the only game this season where we showed some traits of last season but even then we created enough to give ourselves a chance. I have a feeling we will do even better than that this time around and if we can sneak a win the final game of the season between London and Sheffield will decide if we finish 3rd or 4th that is providing we lose to Bradford.
Its good to be a Fax fan again.
