So Calcott in for Morris, McComb in for Barber who goes into the second row to replace Garside.
And for those like me who miss this fixture looks like there is coverage on Radio Leeds or maybe not, would you believe it, it’s Huddersfield

Have to wait for those who went as only Twitter to go on but looks like we gave it a real dig.
Tweets mentioned a lot of penalties conceded again and Jouffret doing his hamstring could be another injury blow.

Best performance we've played against this season.
Fax had a right dig and threw the ball about an awful lot and had a much better completion rate for the first hour and a bit.
Joufret's hammy pinging just when it did was a blow for faxand when walmsley almost intercepted at the end I had the spectre of Rob worrincy going full length under our sticks.
Great effort by fax. Another day would have won and for the bulk of the game were the better team.
Fev just ground out a result.

Did not expect to come away disappointed that we lost but here we are. Basically Jouffrett hammy going was the difference between a win and a loss. I feel the way we played 10 points up would have been enough to take the win but its the way it goes sometimes. We have seen enough to show that when we make the playoffs we can certainly give Fev a match in a one off game. Its 2 points lost but no other team will go there and win so its not a disaster.

An excellent dig well done . Oh that walmsley had got it.

Re: Featherstone part 2 : Mon Mar 07, 2022 10:01 am  

Sounds like we are finally getting on track and it's no coincidence that it is with Lachlan and Louis in the side which makes it all the more frustrating that LJ has picked up an injury, we certainly aren't getting the rub of the green at the moment. What it does show though is we can go anywhere in this league and more than compete. Hopefully that will start next time out against Leigh. Up The Fax!
