Now that you have signed Tonks you could consider a name change for your club to Halistone Rovers with half of the team been x rovers players Ha Ha

Batfax rovers.... This coming from Fev Rams ha

Halifax Rugby League Football Club, seems good to me.

how many are there? not that many!

Handforth, tonks, morrison is that it?!

divorty

Go away you silly man and stop looking for a rise. Where do you think Worthington and Finn are from? Players go where they need to go to make a few quid during a short career.....you are clearly gutted about Tonka and i dont blame you for being!

Worthington could well be in a Fax shirt next year as well if my sources are correct.

Also i seem to remember Maloney playing for fax



Tonks is a great signing! well done Fax.

Don't think too many Fev fans are gutted about Tonks not coming back.

Had chance to loan him earlier in season and we turned it down, he contacted DP when he was released and again was told we didn't require his services.

To be honest at the start of the season everyone was moaning how much we missed him, but now our forwards are playing great and can last a lot longer on the pitch.

Don't get me wrong he is a great forward and he will probably improve your team, but DP obviously doesn't think he would improve ours.

To be fair Fev`s pack is the stand out in our division and you could understand DP not bringing him back but he will certainly add something to ours with the injuries we have picked up during the season. Tonka can only take us closer to your team and that is obviously what we aim to achieve. Just hope we can keep him beyond this season.

Flipping hope not, most underrated centre in our league.

Lovely lad and superb family.

I'd hope his next move (if it happened) would be for a Super League team.

If players want to get out of a run down former mining town then Halifax RLFC is a good place to start to pick up the pieces of their shattered lives. "Deaderstone to Halifax - my colliery escape" is Divorty's first book out next month. Book signing in a posh book shop in Wakefield - just a short horse-ride away from Feeev.

Poor OP is visibly devastated that TT chose the mighty Fax, we should feel for him not mock him.

Great lad is Tonka. Enjoy watching him in a fax shirt for the next 6 games!!
Couldn't possibly imagine where he'll be next season!!

Divorty, Thackray, Manning.

we'll have Ryan Esders if he goes!!

As I read this post all I could see was tumbleweed across the computer screen.

Im guessing we didnt do a deal with Huddersfield just to see him finish the season with us.

You guess correctly. Again, I'd be quite happy for you to address this with Tony should you feel fit!! Nice bloke. Very approachable and as straight as a dye.
He'll tell you quite clearly how it is/was if you are that interested.
If you're just trying to score a point on a t'interweb forum, and aren't really bothered how it is/was, that's cool too!

Dont worry, players dont normally discuss their contract dealings with Joe public. How much do you earn? Your probably not going to say and why would you? And yes I already know Tony is a great bloke and cant wait to see him in a Fax shirt.



Bolded bit just bolded because when you re-read it you realize how funny it actually sounds.

Surprisingly some players are happy to discuss that aspect of their lives - particularly those on good deals. e.g. Jamie Rooney was more than happy to blurt out all sorts when he was a Barrow. - I haven't discussed owt like that with Tony myself.
For what it's worth I'm a top of Band 7 community (LD) nurse in wakey. - that salary banding is available for all to see on the NHS website!!!

obvious he'll be at Fev come 2013, after all they are super League bound with their great SL ground



He'll be lining up his testimonial at Fax before long

Your guessing correctly, as no you didn't do a deal with Huddersfield. Tonks was released

He immediately contacted Powell to see if he could come back to Featherstone.

It just shows the quality of the 2 sides that Tonks is no longer Good enough for us but you lot are all out in the streets partying like you have signed a rugby league God.



Do you have a ground or do you mean that one you rent and earn nothing from.

All this bickering does nothing for me, when i come on this site! Lets have some friendly rivalry eh? We've signed a good player that will improve us, lets hope he stays longer, but if not, so be it!! Players come and go, they also play for other teams! Lets enjoy the game and drop the rubbish!!! PLLLLLEEEEEEAAAASSSSEEEEE!!!!

I quite enjoy the light hearted rubbish! It's fun and can be very humourous at times.
I don't like name calling or slaggin off who or what another team has..... well, apart from Handforth!





In it's place and when it's appropriate it can be good graic.
