Despite the idiots at Red Hall trying to kill the game below SL off, that game really cheered me up. OK LOeigh do have problems but Fax have been awful most of the year. I was impressed with everybody and the team (Players and Coaches) deserve a massive pat on the back just for the tackling sting in the 2nd half alone. Leigh were camped on our line for a good 10-15 minutes but never got through. The defence and commitment was top notch. The players that we have been knocking to some extent really stood up. Nash was top notch and unlucky not to get a couple of tries. Black and Jones were everywhere. Greenwood looked to be a different player and his pass late in the first half was quality. Was impressed with the new lad Gil who made some very good runs and was difficult to stop as was Aizue and Barlow.
Going on that performance I dont fear Fax going to Fav at all and think we could get a win. Hunslet will be at their best of playing dirty and slowing the ball down etc. I just hope Fax and other Championship teams are allowed to compete at a higher level soon. The RFL are killing the game and its very sad to see Leigh struggle and hope that somebody can step in. I dont think the way the RFL run the game has helped any championship team and why we all get small gates now. Keep it up Fax and all the best to Leigh in their current problems. Well done Ref as well for making a good game more enjoyable.
