Amazing even when you get what you want there’s still room to have a dig at the coach and find something to moan about.

Who is gonna play at 7?

I'd have Wood/Inman in seventeen to keep options open.
Obviously,bitterly disappointed that Cas couldn't loan us a quality H/B...

Salty to FB, Woody to 6 Louis to 7?

Is a credible option but I would keep the disruption to a minimum and think Grix will agree..

Either Hudd-Shay or Beaujangles, it might be even later by the time they’ve finished moaning.

Not that you would know or even vaguely understand but it’s more about being an enthusiastic supporter of your club instead of saying everything about them is an absolute shambles at every opportunity and i’m more than sure one poster on here agrees though.
Pretend to be as sarcastically clever as you like but it’s there for all to see in past, present and watch for it everybody future posts from both of them.

Comedy isn't your forte either is it my friend..

Dream on! I'm as enthusiastic as the next man concerning Fax. Point out to me where I've ever said everything about the club is a shambles. If that was the case I wouldn't be on here or going to the games. As for 'pretending' to be sarcastic, if you can't take it, don't give it out. Up The Fax.

Grix was only vaguely complimentary about 2 players after Monday, Wood and Fairbank so I'd be very surprised if he didn't start Wood in the halves. Like others have said I've been impressed with what I've seen of Inman so far, and this would seem a great opportunity to give him another run from the bench either as back up hooker or half. On Fairbank I was a bit disappointed he wasn't made captain when Murrell left - while Scott had his faults when things weren't going well, like Monday, he could be gteed to drive the rest of the team on. Brandon has been a great player for the club, but maybe not that sort of captain.

Perhaps he has Moore as captain as he does more minutes on the pitch? I don't think Fairbank would be a bad option as captain, you could see how much Monday's display hurt from his interview. I wouldn't start changing the team too much. Put Inman in at hb with Wood on't bench as cover.

Point out,

are you blind, check out the majority of your own posts, zero about anything actually relating to a rugby league discussion or content just full of criticism or simple up the Fax comments with an attached

symbol.

DR is a classic example of something that you never stop talking about but have no idea what your talking about just like your mate.

I’ve no idea what your doing on here since years ago when Fax first went into a DR arrangement you said that you were done with the club and if you can’t take it follow your own advice and move out.

Says the joint winner of the most miserable of man of the decade award. Up the Fax.

This feels similar to when we lost at Oldham away a couple of seasons ago , we played dewsbury away the following game ( an easier game admittedly but at this stage it’s about rebuilding confidence) I suspect as in that game we will be concentrating on set completion and discipline . Our kicking game is poor and we rely on our backs to get out of yardage which diminishes energy defensively specifically for our centres. We are also defensively suspect when handling the oppositions kicking game both high and low so that needs to be addressed. Brandon Moore has stopped scooting from dummy half perhaps because we aren’t winning the ruck because our forwards aren’t dominating. Batleys are in a similar situation to us but they’re a big side across the board. Not sure on this one and it could well be fax’s’ biggest test for a while. I would pick inman for his defence and kicking game . I would also be tempted to give Oakley a run out in the centres as I believe he adds a bit more size in that area , the lad has been with us over a year and played once either give him a chance or move him on . Will Maher is playing like a big tree and needs to improve massively, it’ll be interesting to see if Grix is has brutal with him as he was with springer because I know who I’d rather in my side . King deserves a chance even if it’s as rotating prop as kav n gee have played quite well in an underperforming side . I’d also start doro and hope his enthusiasm and aggression puts us on the front foot.

My side is

Woody
Salty
Oakley
Maizen
Walmsey
Wood
Jouffret
Murray
Moore
Doro
Kav
Gee
Tangata
Inman
Fairbank
King
Calcott

I agree with that summary but would pick a slightly different team for sunday and except that some of these selections could go wrong but here goes.

Maizen.
Salty.
Oakley.
Tibbs
Walmsley.
Woodburn-hall.
Jouffret.
Doro.
Moore.
Murray.
Kavanagh.
Gee.
Fairbank.

Calcott.
Tangata.
King.
Inman.

5 games in and we look thread bare. Really hard to change much up front when pretty much every forward has been beow par. I'm really not sure what to expect, Batley normally dominate us in the forwards and our pack has been awful so can't see anything other than that happening. I did chuckle about the comment on the Cas DR lad and Shane Grady, if we dropped every player who couldn't handle Grady Monday night Im not sure we would be able to raise a team and its going to be interesting to see the reaction of the players on the back of our worst performance in years.

Who's my mate? I haven't got any! Lindley Club, Copper Dragon Shive Banger 3.9% Mmm!

Up The Fax!

I must apologise regarding the number of your forum moan events as there were actually less last month than in the previous 12.

Then again maybe not as there are only 28 days in February

I think we all agree our pack is ordinary..Is it classed as moaning if you expect greater things from a super league quota player if his minds on the job ?

No it’s not moaning when someone with a keyboard says the coach who played up front at the highest domestic level with some quality mentors is clueless when it comes to forwards and guilty of scandalous decisions , it’s worse, more like professional assassination from a amateur.

Previous quote: “but Grix is clueless in the forwards anyway,let's good ones go and deems two of his new signings as not been up to it bbefore round 1-which is scandalous.”

Having claimed that Grix can’t think or decide correctly you then go on to say that a player you know even less about hasn’t got his mind on the job!!

Are you a mind reader from behind your keyboard as well as being a master coach?

The insinuations just keep on coming, it’s all here in the posts guys which is precisely what happens when someone just makes things up!!

Keep on allowing yourself to justify it, it’s more than your allowing Simon and the club to do.

I think a little moaning is warranted but its probably unrealistic to expect any new player, no matter what level they play, to come on to the field for a team that is been totally dominated and be able to put in the sort of performance that some people seem to expect. Looking at our team for tomorrow I wish we had brought some DR players in as there are some players that will be playing that are not up to the job at the moment and although all this fairytale 17 Halifax born players in the team sounds nice, when I'm paying 20 quid to watch I want to watch the best team that we can possibly put out.

That’s not a bad shout but I expect wood to play just on the basis of the praise he got from Grix.

Nick rawsthorne and Ben Forster are in the cas reserves side .

Keeping the changes to 1,6 and 7 to a minimum is the likely option so can’t see JWH being moved, keeping it in house and not going with young Morgan from Leeds will mean KW in for Keyes and TI to cover hooker.

Other options.

In the pack will Ryan King get a slot and who will he go with in the centres as Batley have a bit of size and aggression in the side, is Maizen carrying a knock, could we see Cole Oakley in there?

I'll bet they're loving that.

Three Pigs White Rat 4.0 % Mmm!
