not at all-weve been the best side in this division for the first half of the season.the challenge (a much more important one ) is to be the best one at the end of the season.

WE haven't been saying it !!!

Did I miss the bit where you mentioned next season ?

of the 4 games we have lost this season, 2 have been down to lady luck, and we could have won either of those. The other 2 have been down to a shocking lack of intensity (and puzzling team selection?)...not due to the lack of a stand off.

Halifax RLFC 2009 are not a team who needs the architypal stand off of old - we have pivots all over the place.

What we do need is mental strength to win big games...someone with experience of winning big games.

Now you have said that I have thought about it and your right. If we had brought in a 'normal' Stand-off we would have to change our style of play.

A good Stand-off is usually an organiser that directs a team around the park. That would disrupt our off the cuff methods.

Three tries for Stringer against Batley.
