Battered them for 20 minutes, stupid mistakes costing us, then Hewer gets involved with typically inept refereeing.

They score 2 tries, and then we folded.

Not good enough, we don't deserve to be in this division with performances like that.

P1ss poor doesn't cover it, the display we showed today was not worthy of the championship, nothing more to say on the matter

Re: Capitulation! : Sun Aug 01, 2010 5:51 pm  

As poor as the ref was, we were worse.

Credit to Batley, they held us out when we had them under sustained pressure. If we had played with an ounce of intelligence we would have scored two possibly three tries in the first 20 mins, then who knows?

Batley were fortunate with a couple of their early tries but boy did they make us pay once they got in front. They had the confidence to play expansive rugby that was very attractive to watch. There will be some very happy Batley fans tonight.

Good to see how Batley have gradually and steadily developed their ground (but shame about the slope) - A role model to others?. Its good to see how Harrison has a team of local lads playing collectively above their individual ability.

Words, I have none to describe that.
I will not be editing and highlighting the performance on a video this week.

I would rather watch my own firing squad than sit through that again.

Battered them ??? Not from Where I was sitting......matched them i would say for 20 minutes in the armwrestle then there was only one team in it.
Keighley then resorted to niggle and came off second best at that also looking at the huge split across the eye that bully boy Shickell had in the bar afterwards, courtesy of the smallest bloke on the pitch !

We were second best all over the park today and Batley deserved the victory, as we are now down i would like to see Barry play some of the reserves in the 1st team to give them some experience.

There were no highlights from our performance.

Instead, put together a tape of Hewer's performance and put that on as "How not to referee a game of Rugby League" and send a copy to Red Hall whilst you're at it.

That unbelievable decision for the second try changed the game. How could Will have played for it when the ball hit the back of his head?

To be fair, I think we were the better team in the first 20 min but that is little consolation when we were played off the park for the remaining 60.

I'm not so sure if we started the niggle or just responded to it.

How that thug stayed on the pitch is beyond me. Glad he got cuffed - he deserved it.
