I wonder what Simon Grix will do regarding team selection for this game? On one hand you would like to think he would be able to rest a few lads and give others some game time considering Workington's position in the league. On the other hand though there is the argument for continuity. I personally think this game gives us the opportunity to freshen things up slightly and rest anyone with any sort of strain or niggle. We should have enough to carry on our great run and I would go for a Fax win by 30. Up The Fax!

It has to be a fax win. I’m not too bothered about a massive win just a win to keep the momentum. Workington got stuffed last week so they will want to show some metal this week and improve. We will be too strong for them especially as the game goes on with our fitness levels. May be rat one or two or play them off the bench if the need arises.

I wont rest many as its not worth a slip up

If they have not improved from when we played them away earlier in the season we should win by a big score they tried there best but lack firepower i will go for 50-8 to fax and hopefully none of us will pass out from the heat.

The official 21 man squad hasn’t been released yet however on the our league app gee and barber are still available and we’ve added Nathan mason and Fenton Rogers and Cole Oakley gets in the 21 .How accurate this is remains to be seen .

Good test for us in the head department.
The lads put in a huge effort against York and it’s a challenge to keep up the intensity both physically and mentally and there will be a few changes and a shorter turn around from Monday a bit like Dewsbury after Barrow.
We should have far too much for them, just stay focussed and don’t think we just have to turn up because we are playing the bottom of the league.

Just work it for lachlan to score in the corners

Hi, sorry random question from a Leeds fan here

Watching you play York from a recording.....what is that scaffolding in the corner of the Shay ? Is it part of the stadium?... Thought you'd place looks good by way

It’s the steel works that’s part of the structure of that corner that never got finished, been like that for years and likely to remain that way due to lack of funding.

Well comprehensive result when we were far from our best.
Great to see Joe Keyes break the individual points in a game record.
Not so great about Wombat with early news he had a dislocated shoulder and concussion, how bad we’ll have wait for the club to comment.

Was JWH injured right at the end - really can't afford to lose him - thought he had another special game today.

quite possibly the worst championship team in history. can't think of another as bad tbh

If that is so how did they score 10 when Fax have shut out teams this season?

I would look towards the referee for the answer to that one. As for Fax they really couldn't have done much more in that heat. Well done to them and well done to Joe Keyes on his new Fax record.

A bit lackluster in the first half probably due to the heat and playing york on monday but we got the job done in comfortable fashion all the same. Hope that Lachlan is ok we have enough players missing as it is. The 2 lads on dr i thought mason just went through the motions which is not surprising but disappointing he is a big lad and needs to use that size more and as for Fenton until his sin binning i thought he showed promise he looks raw but he played with some intent and as something to work with. It will be interesting if we can get some reinforcement's in on loan this week to bolster the pack or can use dr again if not we look short of options upfront.

Regarding Dr we are bringing in players who are no better than what we have. What's the point?

I am guessing this week it was to have a look at them, give them a chance to fit into how we play, as we will likely need them for when we have 5 forwards banned next week. Plus to give a couple of our squad a deserved rest in a game we weren't at risk of losing.

Mmm? I wonder what Elliott Morris has done wrong. I'd have him in my 17 every week.

Apparently walmsey hasn’t dislocated his shoulder and has just suffered concussion so will just miss the London game .

Good news of a sort. I have noticed a couple of times this season that after hefty tackles Lachlan has walked away holding his shoulder. As for Sunday all he needed to do was step off his left instead of going for the spectacular and he'd probably have been under the sticks. I know that's coming from someone more akin to an ageing prop forward than a fleet footed winger but hey-ho!

Magic Rock Tap shuddersfield. Ringmaster 3.9% Mmm!

I agree and Grix said the same thing in his interview, I guess he’s young and it’ll be a lesson learned. Hopefully.

Ouch..

Me and some other fans said the same thing at the game just set the fullback up to think you are going for the corner then step inside and the fullbacks momentum will take him past you. He is young and full of confidence that he could make the corner he just got this one wrong and will miss this weeks game for it.
