C,mon Batley have been struggling since we took so much out of em.



Fax scored 30 points in first 10 mins of second half.

We are way behind Fax but we are developing,they seem to be going for it this season.

indeed, why is it acceptable though, that we are "way behind fax"

I would think a lot of teams could claim they were 'devloping' too - they just seem to be 'developing' a lot better and quicker than us!!

Fax have and are doing what we did in the early part of this decade (Century) building steadilly and well and consolidating over a number of seasons.

Well take it 1 game at a time, I was pretty impressed with Batley..... but maybe they like playing us????????

Batley did OK in the first half, 18-0 at half time. They had a player sent off on about 39 minutes which gave us a great start to the 2nd half, we never looked back then. We didn't play anything special, we just played simple, but attractive rugby, also helped by Lee Pattersons kicking debut of 12/12 conversions!!
