Robin. This will be typical of a lot of the games this season, across the division it's the toughest for years.It will be no surprise for us to be involved in several close games and we may lose a few but it won't be because of lack of commitment from any one at the club.
There are a lot of strong sides who are all wanting to win, supporters, players directors of every club want to win.

Hi Swifty , hope you are well?I agree with your opinion about the Fev player, but 2 wrongs don't make a right, my view was Tangata charged in and had a go ,I'm not sure who the Fev player was ,but I expected this incident to Marr what was a very good game, it didn't, and from a neutral view games like these make fans want more , with me today was 4 others from Leigh and we all enjoyed the game,and will return for more .

quite well at the moment thanks Charlie, hope you are too. inconsistent decisions can destroy a game, fax had one sinbinned but nobody even binned after that.

Referees decisions do affect games. I'm not sure how much jimmy got wrong yesterday or how much if at all, he affected the result.
I go back to last season at our gaff. Both sides encroaching on the ten most of the second half. The ref picked a game changing decision to pull fev for offside when both teams had previously been taking the pizz.
Brown stuff happens.
Yesterday was a bloody cracking advert for rugby at our level with all 3 results possible until the last few seconds.
At 14-0 I was relaxed and in for an avalanche.
Fax came back and had a reight dig...
The feight was owt n nowt..... its rugby.... sometimes it gets a little frisky!

Fair enough assessment for me.How we went in at only 16-10 is beyond me.We looked unfit,slow,no attacking ideas,falling off tackles etc but second half was classic entertainment which in the end we could have won.

think he would have gone to video ref for 2nd fev try if SL. looked as if lost control on grounding. await video. great advert for the game though.

Yeah we said the ball popped out but I would expect him to ground it simultaneous after that. Although I cant remember in the rules if that is classed as a knock or not.

Re: fev game. : Mon Feb 06, 2017 12:00 pm  

Has to be daylight for a knock on. IMO there wasn't..all irrelevant now anyway.

Re: fev game. : Mon Feb 06, 2017 12:14 pm  

Could of gone our way today and the game was ours to win. Not much in it between both teams. Unfortunately we find it difficult to close games out. Instead of passing it when we don't need to just run from dummy half and kick for territory. Grady showed up well.

I really enjoyed today's game, I predicted a cracker and from a neutral view wasn't disappointed,it was played at a fast hard pace and again as I predicted Fev won , though not with the ease I thought they would.
It was a case of 2 very evenly matched teams,and I thought Childs had a decent game,I know the Worrier took a bit of stick from the Fax fans but I feel he will still prove e decent signing.
The Fax forwards were better than Fev's, but Fev's back were better and faster,Tangata was lucky not to have a yellow card ,and Calahane was puffing after 10 minutes I just don't rate the guy, the Aussie looks OK, And Ambler had a good game , Ben Kaye tried everything as did Grix. Away from the game it was good to see many of my friends from Both sets of Fans,I can honestly say I will be making a few trips this season to watch BOTH Fax andFev.

As to where the teams will finish?Fev for me will be 3rd in the League ,with Fax finishing 7th, just my opinion of course,good to Fevgrinder go away happy , though he was very worried at times.I was looking forward to seeing Halifaxjohn, but missed him, John message me.All in all a 9/10 good game.Charlie knew.

In truth more than a little worried worried at times Charlie, it was a great for the neutral am sure and a game that could have gone either way, I think Fax will go well if they can avoid too many injuries based on that performance, still hope to see you Friday go.
