Fev (A) : Mon Feb 27, 2023 9:41 am  

Following the huge win against Toulouse I wonder if we can repeat it vs Fev? Probably not given they're comfortably the best team in the league but we go into this one on a high for a change. This fixture has a bit of tastiness given the Flanagan snr/Bussey incident so I hope we can continue to keep our discipline.

Did we come through Saturday's game without any further injuries?

Dunning said England hurt his thumb, not sure how serious, but id imagine with Thompson and possibly Butler to come in, I'd rest him if there's any tenderness there.

This will be a much bigger test than Toulouse. Fev are the best team IMO and Post Office Road is such a difficult place to go. But I hope Saturday's result makes as realise that they too are beatable.

I just want to see us make Fev work for the win. Don't think any side has made them work hard for the win this season yet. Even Fax had lost the game within the first 20 minutes.

I hate to say it, but Tindall is significantly better than DFJ. I would like that loan to continue for a while. Thompson is due back. ?Foster to lose out. If England is injured then Butler to swap in, otherwise Dunning has a nice selection headache for a change. And I have to say the Lilley/Patten partnership is working, as is the Flanagan/Roby interchange.

I was impressed with Tindall last time he played for us. He's bigger and quicker than DFJ and gets a quicker PTB.

I see the Fev owner is moaning about shelling money out for the team and the crowds aren't coming and people drinking in local pubs and not in the ground.

Nothing would please me more than to see Featherstone get promoted, spend next season getting towelled by the rest of SL, then back down to the champ with a bump in 2025. Preferably with this cretin Campbell losing a nice sum of money in the process.

Most classless club in rugby league.

Firstly. Where does he expect to get all these new supporters from in a place the size of Featherstone? Does he really think that supporters are going to quit Cas and Wakey and support Fev?
Secondly. If he wants people to drink in the ground instead of local pubs he should make his bar prices more realistic!
A pragmatist he ain't!

Michael Lawrence talks sense and that culture change mentioned before is starting to have a positive effect on the Team and hence the Supporters! https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/ ... ord-bulls/

Agreed about Tindal. DFJ has a good work ethic but doesn’t really bring much more than Tindal after that especially his yards after contact and when you’re battling in your own 20 I think that makes a difference. The side of Tindal AJ and Gill I thought was pretty good and would do well to keep that

Tindell in squad and Thompson back too so that’s a boost
