Exciting times : Sat Aug 01, 2009 3:32 pm  

With Fev playing at home to Toulose today and Haven playing Sheffield at home tomorrow (who in turn have 29 points) by 5pm tomorrow the table could read like this:

1 Halifax p15 pts35
2 Widnes p17 pts35
3 Barrow p15 pts33
4 Featherstone p15 pts33
5 Whitehaven p16 pts33

While it's us that have a slight dip in form in the past 2 games, it's good to see such a competative league, which we are still top of You can't say it's not exciting!

Yes. I suppose. However, I would rather observe the table develop with Halifax 12 points ahead of the chasing pack

Its great for the league but we could just do with that turn around in form. I think a lot of our frustration is borne out of expectation since we started the season so well and then dipped.

Maybe having such a big lead at the top at one stage gave FALSE expectations. We haven't been that much better than the chasing pack and have had our share of close calls in our favour .... Barrow home & away, Whitehaven away, Widnes home and Fev away. And as these close calls were against our rivals, it dont take a mathematical genius to work out had we bottled them then we could be WAY behind. It's a bluddy tuff league this and we've no god given right to be top, so let's appreciate that things could have been so much worse, as it is we're still in the driving seat to finish top.
