They must have been building human pyramids on the cricket field!!!!

Bet the latter were paying customers --and the other figure is "for HM Inland Revenue!

looking at a crowd of 4,000-5,000 the ground can hold 6,000 on the day.

Should be a decent atmosphere in that nice little stadium. I always enjoys my trips to the mount.

O'Donnell and Griffin to be rested for the Saints game

looks like cudjoe to full back then

still seen as the second choice behind grix

no place in the squad for mcnally...another hemingway ...although thats probably an insult to hemingway at least he got to play super league in more difficult circumstances!

i'm suprised at mcnally not been given a run considerin he made his name ripping defences up at this level!

Would have been nice to see him get some game time

Would play a very strong team and hopefully we can work on our attack and post a very good score, main thing is to ensure we are in the next round and don't take Batley lightly.

What was the team



What went wrong



What was sending off for



I took a week off to watch Bradford struggle vs Halifax

A lot of people paid no money to watch that garbage today....

I expected to lose 76 . 6 , but I am now sat here gutted that we lost , and your top of super league , we are championship , with a massive gap between the 2 , and I still think we should have won today

and we made no money out of it , but I hope we gained a bit of respect

You'll have made. Not as much as you should have, but we ate and supped enough!

Batley were great, we were woeful. The sending off was harsh but IMO not a game breaker. In the last 15 when we actually realised we might lose we ran a bit harder. I'm not sure what they think they've achieved to fall in love with themselves and/or disrespect the opposition like that but they stood off, they didn't run their weight. Half 4rsed. Half baked. Half asleep.

just seen halifax game and barlows high shot in 1st min was worse than batley lad but only a pen given, if we play like this against saints we will be in big trouble

Oh everyone please get a grip FFS.

Let's see some positives. It was bad enough at the game with all the whinging.

1 Batley played very well.
2 LOD played very well
3 We got away with making many changes and still won
4 It was a win
5 It was a win

I saw Bramley draw 24-24 with Wigan in the CC in 1984 and it would have been a win to Bramley had a guy called Shaun Kilner not miss a last minute drop goal by inches - they went on to Wembley.

Giants were down and out against Cas two years ago and playing terribly - they went on to Wembley.

It's a big game v a weakened Sts next week. i'd rather everyone keep their best performances for that when a full strength team will be out.

It's been years since I've been to Batley and I forgot how steep the pitch is. Batley used it well and came out of the blocks in Defence. Giants Didn't. But at the end of the day no-one cares if you win by one or one hundred and one in the cup.

We won't play like that against Sts

All I have to say about today is that thankfully Brown didn't listen to the likes of you that would have rested half the team given the chance.

If we hadn't have played a strong squad we would have got annihilated today.

Like I said, disrespect a CC game at your peril. And that, is why people mention Hunslet.

We may go on and win the cup but after a performance like that we would be lucky to win another game, last 4 games we haven't been at the races and something has clearly gone t*ts up.

Could be Nathans annual do I stay or do I go performance(why he does it every may is beyond me as he off nowhere till end of season) or could be something else?

Some of the team look like their confidence is shot to pieces and the try where Batley scored as 4 of our players looked at each other was laughable.

Batley were the better team today and you could not tell which was the SL team, there is some work to be done and by brushing it under the carpet, we solve nothing.

So whatever happens in the next games let's not forget Crusaders, Castleford, Catalans and Batley to name just a few games where we didn't perhaps do as well as we could have?

By the way these are just opinions and we all have differing ones else would be pretty boring.

How can you be so sure? We haven't played well since Rhinos game imo.

Unfortunately form is not like a tap you can turn on and off as you feel like it.

The Leeds, Warrington and Bradford games aside we haven't been sparkling all season.

But the results have rolled in.

When everything clicks they play great. But you just cannot keep the intensity up for a whole season. Everyone has dips.

When Giants fire they will be up there in the mix. Don't worry about that.

Hope so mate really really hope so

We havent had a "big" game since Leeds and a team cant stay at peak all the time, maybe they dipped too much (in fact they did) but Easter is over, we are at halfway point and 2nd in the league.

now its time to start building momentum again for the end straight.

The team will lift for Saints, end of story.

The only positive i saw today was the fact Batley tired late on allowing us to pinch the game - we were awful and yes we got through but thats not always good enough ! if we want to be taken seriously our players HAVE to put more effort in.

Today they thought the draw had put them through before kick off !

Don't you think with a "weakened team" we might of done better! The point is our big boys didn't put in 100% and didn't have enough respect for batley who played really well.
