great win.. good defence again. but poor on attack again. just cannot break opponents line.
salty brought ball out well and fairbank tackled everything.

I sort of agree about the attack, but London is a full time squad and they defended their line well. I was more impressed with our defence this week, some really hard tackles going in and defended our line superbly.

Re: London Broncos : Sun Mar 12, 2017 6:43 pm  

It does depend on the defence you're up against as well. London were well organised, and other than the huge number of mistakes they made, they could perhaps say that their biggest problem today was that they couldn't break the Fax line!

Good defence or poor attack? Maybe a bit of both, but we did look to be running some better angles today, it was just that we never seemed to have a man supporting in the right place when players made half a break.

Tony Fax, Don t let him wind you up. The wheel of fortune might be on the turn, Fax could have bottomed out and be on the way up, whilst the Lobbies may have peaked and you know. What goes up eventually comes down( unless your Wigan or Saints and can manipulate Red Hall [alledgedly] ) look at the dulls last year and Leeds this so far.

Re: London Broncos : Mon Mar 13, 2017 9:17 am  

Having looked at the league table I think so far we are doing ok. A bad reffing decision cost us the Talouse match. Had that not happened and we had won, we would be sitting 4th in league and feeling quite happy. I might be glass half full person but I feel we playing ok. Our defence has improved no end. The Batley game was very poor but other wise we are competing well.

Re: London Broncos : Mon Mar 13, 2017 9:40 am  

We are only 6 games into the season. We have only played really badly once at Batley. It hasn't been pretty so far - butfor me there is a steel throughout the team this season that was missing last year.

There are going to be plenty more ups and downs for all the teams in this division this year. Who would have thought that Rochdale would have turned Fev over? Are Fev really better than us without DR?? Maybe we just need to embrace the DR and use it to our advantage like other clubs have. I'm not saying that I like it - I certainly don't, but at least we can level the playing field a bit by using it like the others do.

It doesn't take much for the fortunes of the club to take an upward curve. I'm certainly a lot more positive now than I was at the end of last season

Re: London Broncos : Mon Mar 13, 2017 10:12 am  

Great win. We are just so inconsistent never know which Fax will turn up. Makes me wonder why we cant turn this performance in every week.

And there goes my point.
Fev have DR and enter into an arrangement with leeds so others don't. Which then means fax et al sort their own DR to counter that advantage.
It's either all in or all out.
I wish DR would go away.... permanently
