Great performance tonight against very sub-standard opposition but to nil any team is a fantastic accomplishment. 5071 as an attendance too and you could feel the buzz around the place.. Smithy.. really good game, more from Webster who got involved tonight and a lovely try.. Yakka.. simply outstanding.. Duffy.. one of his really good games tonight and hope he can stay fit because he was very flexible in whichever position he tried his hand at.. Even Thackray who didn't have the best of nights came up with a peach of a try too. Ostick.. what a hard kid he is?? Flynn................. brilliant hat-trick!! what is particularly excellent is the fact that most of those names are the kids and that is very encouraging. I could go on and probably should but 1 - 17 ran hard tonight and kept up a great tempo What an easy game it is when you let the ball do most of the work for you and pass it about. Only disagreeable of the night was their number 9.. little thug who should have walked.. lovely to see karma come for him quickly though with that embarrasing drop.. How to look like a fine fellow for Dummies!!! .. roll on Fax!! |

I was really proud for all our academy lads, Widnes born an bred youngsters who are Hungry. Paddy is now an adopted Widnesian Scott Yates Paddy Flynn Michael Ostick Josh Simm Shayne Grady Our youth system is starting to pay. Was impressed with Duffy and Webbo, Smith as usual was strong and missed a large chunk of the game afer getting rested. Plenty of positives and to get 5,000 in is terrific. Toulouse were poor though |

That's the performance I've been waiting for. We look sharp and we look to be playing as a unit finally. There was some very very clever rugby played tonight Even the moves that didn't come off just show what we are capable of doing. Still think 'fax will be a much tougher test, especially up front but on tonight's showing I think as long as the pack is laying a platform the backs will play some beautiful stuff. |

great performance tonight. Very professional all the way through the team, got the ball to the wings so the open Rugby is here, and very few errors which bods well. (haven't watched the recording yet but I doubt that'll change my mind on any of those points. |

was it lots of freebies or all pay? Around 4,000 Paying spectators, had just over a 1,000 school kids in the east stand. |

You can normally tell how busy it's going to be by the ease with which you can park outside the ground and it was rammed outside tonight. A great performance for Stanny to sign off his tenure as head coach too.. lets hope he sticks around to get his chance for real next time. |

Great performance! Our youngsters are really coming on now. You can see the confidence beginning to show. The last two games have been a godsend for them. Toulouse were very disappointing though. This makes it a bit too difficult to judge whether or not we’ve tuned a corner and we’re finally playing to our potential. If we have, then Halifax need to watch out next week! Toa needs to calm down. |

Plus competition for places via Stanny. Happy days, we've not been 100% but we are getting there. |
