If this is the Situation action is needed sooner rather than later.
To show how bad our defence has become Rochdale had been scoring 10 pts a match but we managed to concede 24,Last Season 2nd best Defence in the League now the worst of the Top 8 Surely no co-incidence ?

Anyone local know anything about our new signing Oliver with him being an Halifax Lad?

Surprisingly no as at his age and Siddal he should have been in the Tom Holroyd/Morgan Smithies teams..Welcome to club as with any new signing but a young back rower...really is this what Marshall sees as a priority....?

I thought that is the only position he ever sees as priority.

As coach with this money been raised to bring back Tangata, wouldnt you have thought he might have just said, look its nice and sentimental and everything but what I don't need now is another crocked player, can I use this money to bring in a player who is available to play right now.

Not knocking the fans for their sentimental(one way) decisions but the club shouldn't be sanctioning signings that bring more to the dressing room than the pitch.Personally would have brought Baldwinson in as York's need has been shown as being less than ours in the grunt stakes.

Are Halifax in a position to outbid York?

Hard to believe we are in a position that would merit that even being a question...but in truth who knows the Yorks fans are funding that signing in the way ours are Tangata.

Our inept coach yet again blindly oblivious to where we are struggling.... White should be nowhere near the first team IMO.

Spot on. The club is carrying far too much baggage as it is so it makes no sense to add to it.

Well that makes things very interesting for the Bulls game.
