Don't like to say it but Fax 14v32 Widnes. Mrs Hudd-Shay says Fax 12v56 Wignes!

The forecast is rain tomorrow and will even the game up. Widnes have a fair few out injured too. I say Widnes by 10

Halifax by 8

Fax are +18 on the coupon i heard, not a bad bet.

Good chance for fax to potentially cause an upset tomorrow, pretty strong pack for Widnes but a bit short in the back division. I would be disappointed if we didn't win though.

I'll go for a Fax win on the coupon and no injuries.

Fax to win. See what Steve has to say. www.halifaxrlfc.co.uk/news/artic ... forward-to Let's believe. Looking forward to seeing Tess again always liked him when he played for us.

Im feeling lucky after my win on the national so Halifax to win off scratch and Fieldhouse first try scorer. #pintsfortrys I can feel it in my bones.

I'm just dreading the courier headline Brave Fax run Mighty Vikings Close! Mind you the more I sup of this the more I'm sure we're bound to win. Kings Head shudds. Abbeydale North American IPA 6.0% Mmm!

Have a sneaky feeling we might do it! But I have had a few. Manning on brown?! Game over

Fax by 6

Mom tyrer

Fax by 1 via golden point (in my dreams). Head says Widnes by around 12, but you never know...

widnes by 4. c'mon Fax

But not until friday LOL. Watch yourself on the 6% pal

Widnes will win. Comfortably

I think with three Widnes specialist halfbacks missing it will help Fax. Mellor,Gilmore and Craven not fit and our fullback Hanbury also missing. Yes it will still be difficult for Fax, as the Widnes depth is better this year.

Nothing to lose today. Just carry on playing like we have in last two games and can't ask for anymore,. Widnes in good form at the moment and fulltime players will have the edge. Widnes by 14 -then THE big game to look forward to next week.

I think Widnes will win easily, the gulf is just too big. I'm going along to shout the team on and I'm hoping for a good performance, I'd love an upset, but I'm realistic. Put a good show on lads.

Who had Widnes by 24?



I was more than a little worried at 10-0!

Thought we did ok. Final score flattered widnes. A couple of tries and penalties at the start of 2nd half swung it.

What I liked to see was we never looked tired and kept going to the end. Bring on Leigh!

Look at today's results, has any championship side performed better than us today.
We gave them two tries in the second half on the last tackle with high balls, where was Tommy Saxton for the first? We gave them a try with the interception.
Well done Fax, very proud






Good look Luke Ambler limping at the end, get fit for Leigh, we need you.




Ps 2200 my ar-e.

Pps we tackled their number 13, smashed him, early in the second half, he spilled the ball, why were we penalised?
Spooky.

More like 3200

Yes John, Leigh!



Once again we twice built up leads of 18 points and ended up hanging on for the final 15 minutes. Our ability to save games against the 'lowly' teams, is becoming the stuff of legends!

If you guys are kind enough to give us 18 start, don't worry, we'll give you plenty of opportunities to rectify things. One more thing, please don't kick the ball at us - it induces blind panic amongst our boys!

I'm hoping for a good game, but we need to find our form of the first three games, if we're to make a contest of it!

Spooky NO, e linesman YES. Never called for a forward pass all day but called for that, ball came out in the tackle, what a joke, even Cahill was laughing about it later.
Ref was rubbish but linesmen made him look good, chocolate fireguards the pair of them.

I know RL fans are really good at calling offside, but it did get a bit ridiculous at times today, with some Widnes players making no attempt to get back the full 10... and right next to the ref at that. On one play, the ref was 10 metres back, but he actually moved up a couple of metres to line up with the Widnes defensive line!!

As I say, we all call it, but it was a bit blatant today.

Btw, I couldn't support Widnes through sheer boredom watching Tickle prepare for his kicks!!

Without Kevin Brown playing today, I think it could have been far, far closer...

They didn't break our line all day and we matched them in the middle of the park but couldn't get over the line in the second half to keep it a contest.

Well done the lads today, big effort and the score didn't reflect the balance of play.
