Aston views are rarely worth listening to. Let him keep spouting his tripe and we will continue our winning ways, even after a relatively sub standard performance. That's taking nothing away from Dewsbury who played well enough and whose forwards more than matched ours.

Still plenty of rugby still be played before any club can think about promotion. Injuries when it comes to the crunch games will have a major bearing but the teams that can peak at the right time will also have a great chance. Wakefield look there for the taking right now but it's a funny old game and the picture might look a whole lot different in 2 months time.

Couldn't agree more. Good points well made

Yeah, that sounds more like a stab at Leigh than a pat on the back for Bradford.

He has a lot to say Aston, doesn't he?

Well if he would put his house on Bradford being promoted then he must live in a cardboard box! Quite ridiculous...

“It is interesting because Bradford are hitting form at the right time."

Are they? What do you win in early May?

Sounds like wishful thinking to me. Still supose it's a compliment when other coaches feel the need to talk about you, he should be careful though, Fev became obsessed with talking about us last year and look what happend.

Aston usually spouts dross.

That was the unlamented Mr Nahaboo and his ridiculous bombastic statements. Mark Campbell has on more than one occasion expressed his quiet admiration for the way Leigh have gone about things. His views on Aston and Sheffield are known to be rather less positive.

Nearly everything Aston says seems to have some sort of agenda, but to me this smacks of bitterness about Sheffield's recent loss to Leigh (didn't he whine about some of the decisions that day?); his team got hammered by Bradford so he has to put a positive spin on it ("they're the best team"icon_wink.gif whilst having a sly dig at Leigh.

when we put 50 on them at the LSV he may change his veiws

Aston has to find a positive spin, for his side's good hiding at Bradford. If we were showing signs of cracking and going backwards yesterday, where does that leave Sheffield? It's worth pointing out that they have already LOST at Dewsbury. At least we managed to get the two points there!

I would confidently expect our coach to use Aston's ramblings as a motivational tool when the Eagles come to LSV!

Doesn't like us does he ? Remember before last season, speaking generally about his sides chances in our league, said how Leigh had "put all their eggs in one basket"...well guess what 'Chubby' it worked........ yet he didn't mention any other clubs. What an annoying little man !

He'll be looking at the last 4 fixtures before the middle 8's for Sheffield,Bradford and Leigh...

Leigh have the easier run in as they have already done the hard work in the first half of the season.I can understand Astons mentallity when he says Leigh will crack when really Sheffields only hope is Leigh beat Bradford.Then again Fax may play a part in those last 4 fixtures as both Bradford and Sheffield have to visit The Shay.

Might go down to the last game of the season for all (but I doubt it)

Halifax v Bradford
London v Sheffield
Leigh v Doncaster..

I know who my money would be on..

Aston lives round the corner from me, his house is worth around £250,000 if anyone wants a rich bet.

Have property values dropped since he moved in ?

He's entitled to his opinion, but if winning a 23rd game running is a sign of cracking, then I'd love to see when we're not about to crack. We have come out of a few games recently saying we've not played very well, but winning when not playing well is a sign of a good team and we had a fair few close run games last season, yet still only lost one league game.

Not sure Aston even knows the format, given this quote, "But, by the end of the season, who will get promoted? I think you would probably put your house on it being Bradford." Does he not know that there's a possibility nobody will be promoted?! Wonder if he would have bet his house on Bradford going up after they shipped 38 points to Doncaster?

As has been said before, it's form and fitness at the end of the season that counts.

It's a glaringly obvious dig at Leigh. So much so, that, like you say, he's almost [iwilling[/i Bradford up before they've even played the Middle 8's! lol

Maybe he should just concentrate on his Sheffield team because they obviously need to improve.

...and its now making its way online to all the main RL News sites. No team talk needed from Paul on Sunday, just print out Astons views for the boys and feel sorry for Fax

maybe hes got some inside info

Doubt it' although Leigh did have an off day last Sunday'

mind you as you know they still won.

I think it's more a case of wishfull thinking.

You making allegations once again!

Take me to court then if you think that's so

Thinking more of a 'secure unit' somewhere, if you are seriously making allegations that Aston's right!

Would that be a Juvenile one Dong?
