Well that is your opinion Charlie, good on you sir.

However not many RL experts employed in the game either past or present would agree with you there Charlie, clearly.

Cmon Harold you must agree Ryan played well today, his try scoring ratio speaks for itself and he can kick goals.And I know a few RL experts who would agree with me.

Was very poor for spells either side of half time.

Hope ridyard is fit for next week, and I think both Spencer and Brooks would’ve improved the set of forwards today

Very poor in the middle 40 minutes, Brierley surely showed the doubters what he is very good at. Douglas was awesome, Patterson was awful.

Reffy. I think after going 24 -0 up so early made us think the job was going to be a cakewalk, not to be,we dropped so many balls missed a few tackles,some players trying to hard,when we went back to basics the points came back.

I thought a Higson and Sau, tried hard, Clark ran well but dropped a few balls, Douglas as always was very good,pity Woods went off injured,Patto isn’t a half so I’m not knocking him, but as usual Ryan’s ratio of tries to games was very good ,kicked a few goals as well,this team will get better, next week should be a cracker,let’s enjoy it.

I thought we really struggled in the second half with no half backs following Woods departure. We needed someone out there to step up as play maker but there appeared no volunteers. We lacked organisation , we lacked leadership.

What We do evidently need is Ridyard and Woods fully fit next week. Im sorry Charlie we do need more in the halves than a one off opportunist 70 yard try at the death.

Re: Sunday's squad v Batley : Sun Jul 21, 2019 6:47 pm  

The drop in quality started long before woods went off. Was pretty much when the subs came on.

Need ridyard to play if we’ve to have any chance next week. Don’t care if it’s woods or brierley with him

Never apologise Harold, you are entitled to your opinion, and I respect that ,Ryans first try was crafted well by McNally and finished well by Ryan,he made a few telling tackles for those who claim he can’t ,and to score 20 points isn’t bad.
Myself I’d be tempted to give Riddy and Ryan a go next week, and Duffs may be forced to try it,although I do hope Woods is not injured.
Our squad is looking good now, our bench today looked strong,though Patterson played out of position.Batley are no mugs ,the run in will be so intriguing ,I’m going for Toronto, Leigh, Toulouse,Fev, and York , in this order.

Let’s enjoy the season as it unfolds for a great finale.
