Or maybe they wouldn't it did seem strange that they chose to kick when they seemed to have momentum and then go for it when they could have taken the lead our goal line defence was pretty good I thought

Great game, great atmosphere - think it couldve gone either way till Blairs try at the end



Dont know if that was the biggest away following this season to your ground? It looked like we had brought a few



Thought we were unlucky not to get something from the game - we got too excited when we took the lead shouldve been more sensible instead of making a silly offload



Some will argue we shouldve beaten you in the 8s last season and maybe shouldve yesterday, maybe revenge will come in the reverse fixture? Look forward to you all coming over in what is probably another close run game which will go down to the wire

Bradford apart it was the biggest away following and the loudest

Earlier this year we (Fev) lost to Rochdale by a point at home in a mudbath having turned down four or five kickable penalties in the first 20 minutes. Since then, for better or worse, we have gone for 2 nearly every occasion when there has been a reasonable opportunity to do so.

That's why I can't understand why you didn't take the two to take the lead when you had the chance

I would hope we have a near full strength side and that they perform somewhere near their potential in the return fixture. 'Twas a dire performance to watch yesterday.

If it's a penalty in front of the sticks and as good a guaranteed 2 points Wayne Bennet's teams always go for goal. You don't score every time you are within 30 of the opponents line why turn down a certain 2 points. It keeps you in the game and the opponents under pressure.

The 19 for Monday looks a risk but might still do the job. This must be Sheens squad rotation in preparation for next Saturday.

Spoke briefly to James Greenwood outside the ground on Friday. He confirmed he is OK to play, but will be returning against Leigh next Sat. In his words "it was the fixture he preferred to play in given the choice."



This would appear to indicate that we intend to go to Leigh with the strongest squad possible, particularly given the nature of the 19 man squad announced for the Toulouse game.

but has long has we do not get any more injured we should be ok in both matches

I cant believe how many players are injured/rested for this game, it has to be a record!
