Despite Leigh turning in a great performance last week looking back at the video we were also very poor. I cannot see us turning in such a performance in this huge game as it's another cup final style game v Fev the lads know they have to be going at it hammer and tongs Fax 30-18 Fev att: 2,700

Sounds like the same happened at Batley V fev with Batley turning in their worst performance of the season.

Also no idea with this one, a couple of weeks back I would have said a Fax win but with injuries and fev's result last week I think it could go either way.

As said.
Very close this one and will be played like a cup final with a good crowd.
Apart from Dane being out Ben Kaye will be missed, his play at 9 adds a lot to the team and we need to be strong there especially when up against Andy Ellis.
4 points either way with Fax just getting home 28 - 24.

Bookies have us as marginal favourites. Both to score in the 20's and Steve Tyrer's boot giving Fax the win by 2 or 4 points.

Pretty accurate that i'm afraid.Ellis pinched a soft try and Kaye's defence/enthusiasm was clearly missed.

Ellis has been a stand out at this level for years and a master of scoring just like yesterday.
I think he pipped Penky to some award when he was at Barrow and KH did try to sign him but Fev offered more.

I was stood behind the posts yesterday, it looked like it was in slow motion with our lads just stood watching him, I knew what was coming and was yelling out Tackle him, tackling him, for crying out loud tackle him (oh B#ll#cks.)



Easy to say i suppose but apparently not easy to read and to be fair he had held off when in a similar position until then and he had a lot of runners offering themselves as a distraction.
