With the conversions being so important I don’t understand why they don’t have a right footer curling in from the left and vice versa. Some, of course, are deadly from both sides but after the 1st miss out on the left I was pretty certain he would miss the 2nd and he did by some margin. Not at the same level as misses by young Coates but not great and slightly deflated Rams.

Sykes once got 12 from 12 in a game for us which I'm not sure has been beaten.

Was that our last game at Griffin Park?

Sykes kicked 10 from 12 that day.....I was wrong, it was that year, but the hammering of Wakefield in late February that saw him kick 12/12.

Genuinely pleased that you got your first win of the season and against one of the teams around you. Only just caught up with the scores. Would have been monitoring from my work station but on the way into work on the bus (which continues to Manchester Royal Infirmary as it happens) Bongser is told he "did a Zak Hardaker" out of the blue and the driver and other passengers kept him captive until MRI. Don't recall a thing about it, felt absolutely fine barring frustration that Bongser's phone was dead by kick off and that not one of the nurses & doctors would agree to keep him updated on the rugby scores. No more clapping for the NHS from this quarter.

Anyway, upward and onward now Broncos - barring against Leigh of course.

I have long suspected that getting on buses is bad for the health. All the best and Hope you are well now.

Thanks BigTime. Have antibios to counter a chest infection that had driven the old sodium levels dangerously low that in turn led to the seizure. Due MRI & CT scans later in the week to try to establish whether Bongser actually has a brain. The medicos are a little puzzled as to why he always refers to himself in third person. Haha! One day Bongser may reveal the perfectly rational reason. Watch this space.

BTW Bongser has long suspected that going to work is bad for the health.

I experienced my first MRI late last year....I was like listening to a trash metal band playing oompah music......very odd!

Well done the team. Seems a little churlish to say it was only Dewsbury but any win we must be grateful for. Just need to back it up over the next few games if we are going to stay up.

But for heavens sake dump the blue & yellow.

Given we are the only club who don't post crowd pictures, it's hard to fathom how popular the wire kit is amongst fans.
Are they selling well?
Did they announce a gate yesterday?
Did anyone upgrade and take pictures of the gold lounge?
It all seems very strange that we had a crowd if about 700 and yet they are still segregating the after-party?
