Workington on Sunday : Wed Mar 23, 2022 9:30 am  

Who's making the trip up to Cumberland for this one? What are peoples thoughts on our chances? I can't make it this time for the first time in a few years, I allus like my journeys up to the two Cumbrian clubs so will have to rely on social media on Sunday to hear what's going on. What we need now after a very difficult start to the campaign is getting some injured players back and with that some stability. We know we have a good squad and need to repeat last year's long unbeaten run, get to where we need to be at the end of the season and then owt can happen in the play offs. As for this particular game I'll go for Town 12 v 32 Fax. Up The Fax!

I’m going up (again!). I think we will win this one as long as the lads donet feel too tired after Monday. It’s going to be a dry for rm pitch which as we have seen will suite us. panthers by 18.

Bradford did the same last week - Monday game , then Cumbria trip. They're struggling for forwards at the moment so Bradford built pressure down the middle then found space out wide. Would have been more but we lost a prop on the 3rd minute and all the middles had to do extended minutes. They've a couple of clever halves (I'm impressed by how many teams have good halves this season in the championship), one of whom completely did our defence with an outrageous dummy, step and go. They have some decent strike out wide but if the pack is struggling, they can't create much. You should have no problems getting a 4-5 try victory. Something like 36-10

After watching the game on Monday, I think I’m favouring a Worky win , a close game but I’m predicting Worky 22 v Fax 18, I think as the game progresses Fax will tire after your efforts on Monday .
A trip up there is never easy ,even Fev didn’t win easy ,trouble is this is a must win game you have now lost 4 games from 5 ,and Worky are the bottom club , with 5 Straight losses .

cant make this one but going for a easy win will be good to see the 2 giants lads given another run which will help us out. Was impressed by ashworth on monday. Can see this been start of a unbeaten 8 to 10 game winning streak

All down to accommodation for us for an extra day, we are up in Keswick on the Monday 28th for a week so perhaps an overnight stay on the Sunday after the match anywhere from Windermere / Penrith in that area wouldn't be too hard to sort out.
Fax with 14 for me, and with the number of unforced errors accounted for I'll go for Worky 10 Fax 26.

Don't go to Haven mate head for workington instead otherwise you will end up watching Haven play saints in the cup.

As for the game we really need a win i will go for fax by 12 but they will certainly fancy there chances against us. And i hope that if we win it is a start of a long winning run we could certainly do with one.
