Well - this could be interesting

Sorry but this is what think - I think it could a bigger score as well if the conditions are good which they prob will be, we will be making the trip and supporting the team either way whoever wins.

I really do fear we could be on the end of a hiding for this one.

Mind you that may depend of which players Cas let us have.

I don't think it will be very pretty and i'd love to say it could be close ,but ......

I suspect Paul March will have given them the biggest rollocking ever so may
come out a bit better prepared and more fired up yet still think Halifax will
give us a right drubbing.

Sorry cougars, they are a much better team by far ( for now )

Dare I say anything

only joking.
Not looking forward to this one and I'm hoping the conditions aren't good as this might help keep the score down cos if its descent conditions then Halifax could run riot. In an ideal world Marchy will have all the answers and the players will come out firing on all cylinders.

I'm not enjoying predicting these scores this season but I have to go with Halifax to win by 40-50 pts.
Hope I'm really wrong.

Call me crazy, but I've got a feeling we might sneak this.

Maybe it's my heart ruling my head and I'll take any flack if we get stuffed.

How come you lot don`t fancy your chances?

We (Halifax) are no where close to top gear yet, so I cant see us scoring too many points.

Halifax 18 - 12 Keighley

Fax 20 Cougars 12 - Cougars normally lift their game due to the large number of exfax players we have.

DOVO, i have to agree that some players certainly try that extra bit harder to put 2 fingers up to rhino, and so they should, I know paul White certainly tries to up his game, A dry pitch and i think you have had it though, Barlow, Robinson, Bracek and tonks will do their job in the middle and we will ware you down for a second half demolision.

Hope your players are as "over-confident" as you!

I don't think they will be over confident but I can see nothing short of a ass whooping today for you boys, I hope you get a bonus point to be honest and march leaves the dirty tactics alone. I will be in the shears from 1.30 if anyone fancies a nice pint.

Dominance your crazy!

Well what a day for a game of rugby but to be honest this wasn't the kind of day I was hoping for, well it was and wasn't. Firstly I was hoping it was going to be a horrible wet and windy day which then would have made for a scrappy game and made things a little easier on us not allowing halifax to play a fast flowing style of rugby where they can throw the ball around. This would of probably made it easier for us to get a bonus point. On the other hand today might just let us see the new style of rugby that Marchy has been talking about as he has said the previous weeks/conditions haven't given the lads the chance to play the expansive style of rugby that Marchy wants to play.

Todays conditions are perfect for us to play some expansive rugby and to throw the ball about and hopefully not the one man rugby style just going down the middle. On a day like this the pitch at the shay should be in great condition for a great game of rugby.

COME ON COUGARS
