Hopefully Fax can get our injured lads up for this game which I think will be an absolute cracker. Whitehaven are red hot at the moment and we are on a very poor run. I'm going for Fax 22v 14 Whitehaven.

King's Head shuddersfield. Magic Rock Ringmaster 3.9% with a strong whiff of cannabis thrown in!

not sure what to expect tomorrow with recent results. Think could do with Harris playing but we know he wont.

Grix will be up for it to get another match so possible he will have a good game

18-12 fax

Down to a 19 man squad, we will have to be as good in defense as the home league game and take every chance that comes our way, anything less won't be good enough against an in form, up for it Haven.
Fax to just take it in a last all out effort.

Yes it is a question of weather we have got enough left in the tank. Because whitehaven certainly look like they have if we have i will go for a fax win 26-16. As for selection it is anyone's guess i just hope we can get the win tomorrow.

I would never have thought I would be thinking that reality would be a whitehaven win but they seem to have that winning momentum currently

With all due respect a home game with Whitehaven and we are second favourites....
Hopefully the curve will turn upwards from next season...it has to.

Quickly changed to a 21 man squad but emissions from the 1st squad were Barber and Calcott who we really could do with both playing so hopefully its just an admin error. I would imagine it would be Tibbs, Davies, Harris and Calcott that miss out. Maybe we get a surprise for the last game though.

I've been thinking the same BJ but are they really the favourites? Aye, they are on a brilliant run. Fax are on a very poor run. However Fax's form is almost entirely down to our lack of players and hopefully SG can get one, maybe two or three, last good performances out of the lads we have left. We were very good against 'haven at home in the league and despite our personnel problems we showed great defence against Batley last week and if we can repeat that and improve our attacking options there is no reason why we can't book a trip to sunny Featherstone next week. Hopefully Whitehaven peaked in their great comeback at Odslum last Sunday, they were after all 16v0 down to a very average bradford side, and we can extend our season by another week at the very least. Up The Fax!

....but is it the last game?

You would have thought Worthington would be one of those to miss out unless he has had a miraculous recovery from last week with his shoulder / arm injury?
If he is out there are several options involving the 1,6 and 3/4 positions.
One thing that frustrated me last week was that Batley had clearly read our "play book" and were quick in their defensive line to shut us down.
When it was obvious that it wasn't clicking during the game we had a few option to change things around and ask some different questions but didn't do so and if the same people keep doing the same things the same way then you end up with the same result.

Close game like most of us predicted and it was a good advert for the Championship for perspective TV broadcaster.
Thought we just about deserved it over the 80.

Bit of a surprise at the lack of response to today's performance/result - thought we were excellent first half, and while not the only reason for the dip in performance 2nd half loss of JWH definitely affected the balance of the team. Thought Harris was excellent, especially first half, and while not normally his biggest fan thought Mcgrath had his best ever game, coping with a load of pressure on his wing as well as popping up with a try.
