Well done on your consolation win.

well done boys


First of many

Fantastic this really makes up for getting knocked out of the NRC. Theres going to be one hell of a party tonight.

9's plate...9's... Maybe next year they'll have a shot at the main event



Well done to Fax your there so may as well win the fliiping thing! Thought your side by more suited to this last year and won this time round at least!

You'd better hope your lot do the business tomorrow

well done to the boys and the coaching staff. Really pleased with this. I know its only a nines comp that perhaps not many took too seriously but its a positive and right now thats what we need. hopefully we can kick on from this and get that 2nd spot in the league and move forward to the grand final.

We're in the main event, we've already outdone you.

I was there. If you weren't, you missed a real treat today!

Apart from a slow start (again), and a nervous second half in the semi against Swinton, Fax played really well today. They conceded the first try in the final, but then bossed the rest of the game, and defensively (yes!) were awesome against Sheffield.

Winning was great, but the biggest pluses for me were that a) we took it seriously, and b) the Fax players were genuinely, and very visibly, ecstatic with winning the tournament.

Of course we'd have been happier to be playing tomorrow, and hopefully we won't be defending the trophy next season (!), but if there was ever good timing for a confidence boost, this was it!!

Well done to the boys. Enjoy the celebrations tonight - Barrow on Thursday!!

in the words of Max Boyce.............."I was there!

Great day out for all involved with Fax. Fantastic to see the boys pick up the trophy and spray the champagne around.

Well done lads.

Thats really pleasingg. Although we should have been in contention for the main prize, today should have given us some confidence to go for the main prize in October

Chuffed that they won it. Well done everyone.

a trophy is a trophy, we have that, it builds the confidence for the run in if nothing else, its not the biggest competition, it gives them the mindset that they can win things if they play well as a team and defend properly.

enjoy the final tommorow, chris

I was just pulling your leg. As you say, a trophy is a trophy and you were good enough to win it so well done.

And thanks.

Last year the winner of the nines played in the superleague nines, is this the same this year??

Yes, the photographers were wanting pictures of them with the cup next to a Carnegie poster to advertise for the SL 9's.

Brilliant news.

Well done boys

. One more trophy than widnes this year when they loose to Rhinos Batley

Come on Batley,Yorkshire United apart from the dulls and whinos

:

Now for the main prize the grand final.

Well done Fax.

Shame we came up just short against Sheffield in the Semi to make it a derby game in the final.

Well done lads, quality. Use this as a springboard for the rest of the season!


Anyone have any pictures?

You're mid table playing another mid table side and likely to not even make the play offs. Then the RFL are going to screw you again next year by promoting Toulouse to SL.

Outdone - Right

At least this time we might be able to take them to court. Unless Toulouse make the final of the Championship that is.

Yep just checked and the superleague nines are at Leeds on Wednesday 25 th August. Might just have to pop along!!!!

Fair point!

It cost Sheffield united £1.5 Million to sue the FAPL & Wet Sham. Best you've got deep pockets

SOC has

Really? And what league would you play in after they kick you out.
