China started today but got injured in the first half attempting to prevent a try. He limped off and didn't return.

Mark Castle and Kyle Briggs didn't play.

Forgot to mention that Halifax played the last 17 minutes with 12 men after Miles Greenwood was red-carded for kicking out in a tackle.

just like every other player does in nearly every tackle. Even your player thought he was going to penalised for holding down

Credit where it's due, your youngsters did themselves proud today in that heat. It seemed to me that Halifax were complacent going into this game and it showed in the first half with the amount of errors they made and possession they coughed up.

Good luck for the rest of the season.

Thought there were some good play today, but we must get rid of the Tony Miller one man up stuff and start to be a little more adventurous, and why don't we change the kick off instead of up in the air every time.
But well done lads today against the top team in our division.

I didn't go.....but would it be fair to say that we are trying to target games we can win.......ie Toulouse......hence a lack of people like Briggs?
Although they have hit good form just in time to play us.

I think he meant this as information, NOT A GLOAT, NOT FINGER POINTING. I'm sure if you are correct the matter will go no further.

Seems that China was rushed back too soon then! I wonder how long this has put him back?

Toulouse? It is not the same side than at the beginning of the season. They scored 46 points against Leigh and they are on a roll after scoring 60 points against Batley. Skybets places now Toulouse 3rd in terms of chance to win the Championship grand final. Beware of their new strength.
