Rochdale 18 fax 36

Another tough test as Rochdale are a good side.
Result, anything could happen and it will be interesting to see if Fax can kick on from last week.
We looked more like it against Sheffield but they were poor and had 12 men for 20 minutes of the game so still a bit of room for wondering where we are.
Score prediction, Fax by 8.

Im looking forward to this game on Sunday. The Hornets only just lost to Hull KR last week. They are a very good team. If we play as good or better than last week I think we will win by 4 or 6 points. If we don't they will by 12.Our forwards need to dominate from the off so AOB can have quick ball and work his skills. Hope the weather is dry(ish). Good luck to Siddal tomorrow.

Lets face it, as well as Rochdale have started the season they have a team that will do well to finish mid table in this league. That's no disrespect to Rochdale but if we are a team that is chasing that last middle 8 spot then you have to go to places like Rochdale and grind out a win. I think we are capable of doing that and the fact we had an easy game last week and Rochdale had a really tough one will play its part as well in our favour.

No dual reg this weekend with the return of Kaya and Tangata

That will cheer our good friend Hudd-Shay up
To use Harold Wilsons misquote "A week is a long time in politics" even longer in RL which Fax Team will turn up this week ? after last week there is hope but Charlie will no doubt say "one swallow doesnt make a summer"
One of my favourite quotes ? "On the Star Ship Andromeda Hope Lives Again"
Hopefully see you all in Rochdale

Righty so RM did say he would only use DR where necessary.He's not our player and i would rather have Kaye/AOB anyway.

Neither is AOB but I think wilky gives more go forward than kaye

If our best hooker is available then we should play him. Sadly, we don't really have a "best" half-back at the moment, hence why AOB shines so brightly.

Hopefully Jonno is watching and learning from Andy. Gazza could do the same, but seems to have lost interest for some reason at the moment?
