My definition of a good weekend. Sunshine, we beat Toulouse, Toronto lose heavily at Salford.
Rise like Lions after slumber In unvanquishable number-- Shake your chains to earth like dew Which in sleep had fallen on you-- Ye are many -- they are few.'
Positives today. Good solid start which is what was lacking against Leeds and Toronto. Decent completion rate. Solid defence. Negatives Gave away a couple of silly penalties. Injuries, Dixon did not look good, initial thoughts he is probably done for the season
So..... It will come down to Halifax at home (although HKR are lumbered with casualties and Hastings is out for the season at Salford)..... I reckon we stand a better chance at Toronto than headingly but we must beat Halifax convincingly...... And I'd hope dave would have the guys on a flight first thing on the Monday....... And in a decent hotel for the week.....
JESUS WEPT HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
The Dixon injury, that was just first thoughts, we have seen it before with injuries on the day. Hopefully it’s not as bad as it looked, up till then he was having a pretty decent game.

We lost Quinlan who has been our best player this season and set up 5 tries today he’s out for 9 months and Justin Carney is also out we have been a bit hit and miss like yourselves in these 8s we were woeful against Salford at home then went away to Toronto and Leeds and won and were great for 20 mins today then sort of went to pieces a bit but a wins a win I suppose
