That game crept up on us. Swinton should have been dead and buried but they snuck back into the game and almost snatched the points. Great thinking by Lilley to slot the drop goal over. Our inability to kill off a game almost coming back to bite us for the second week in a row.

Yeah we need to start posting points against the so called lower teams. Mind you there is no easy game in the Championship

It's strange because I remember beating Widnes 6-0 in a No6 Final and we were totally confortable.

Well it’s a win, bit sloppy defensively in patches which will concern Kear.

Pickersgill had another great game in attack and easily our most dangerous ball runner. For 70 mins it felt like one of those games where we would always have too much for Swinton and the players probably believed that as well until Swinton ran in two quick tries. Some smart plays near the end from the likes of Brough and Lilley was enough to get us home. Far from convincing in the end though.

Agreed. A little composure before half time and when we went 23-10 up and we could have run away with that game. In the end we had to win it about 4times overall. But a wins a win.

I have to agree .... ive seen us over the years and knowing full well we aint gonna lose this game no matter how close (gonna discount the minor blip we suffered over the late 90s and early naughts). present day northern/bulls players wearing the shirt should be proud of any victory. But that's what I was brought up on .. a grind and a never say die attitude. gimme that and id gladly suffer a heart attack a week

in the end its an away day banana skin against a team that has been a thorn over recent memory that's been avoided with lack of grammer and proper English :)
