Barrow v Halifax : Mon Jun 10, 2024 2:42 pm  

So who is going on saturday, i was going to stay over but a change of plans means i will coming straight back. Team wise Kav could be back and hopefully O'brien will be fit to play but I'm most wanting to see the 2 french props play. Going on the squad last time out i would go with.

Woody
Salty
Barber
McCormack
Graham
Jouffret
Keyes
Ruan
Johnston
Boyer
Hursey
Gee
Fairbank

Tangata
Hantz
Lannon
Obrien if fit if not Widdop.

That 1-7would be great but won't happen as Widdop will be included buggering up the backs completely again. Is Douglas still knackered - not sure about Ruan who hasnt added much so far. Never thought id say this but Davies probably deserves his place - just NOTat hooker!

Looking at the league table this match already looks like a four pointer. Along with Dewsbury, Barrow are the only team with a worse points difference than us. A Barrow win would leave us 4 points behind them with probably a worse points difference and the alarm bells would really start to be ringing. It's time for the team to start performing. Up The Fax!

Just seen the team - the madness continues- best half at hooker, best hooker on the bench and no sign of Barber. At least JwH back at fullback

I thought the same but it worked! A good win and much needed.

That, in true Fax style was stressful to crest full in 80 minutes and still recovering to say much else.

Looked hopeless at 12-28 but we managed to change the momentum while Widdop was in the bin...

I noticed that, but only from commentary on twitter - did anyone on here actually go to the game - would be interested to know how the 2 new lads went and if Jouffret was taken off when they brought o'brien on.

I went.Boyer short spell looked ok.Graham got caught out a couple of times and dropped ball on his only real running chance.Both will hopefully be good additions with more game time.O’Brien replaced Jouffret after 25 mins and don’t think he came back which was harsh but we won somehow...

Jouffret is fine it’s mentioned in the post match interview the reasons why .
