I just think your getting carried away with things, yeah netherton might look slow against other SL teams but when he comes up against a Championship team he will look faster, remember if Penkywics (sp) was that good and fast why is he not being snapped up by a SL team?

Netherton in the ruck is still faster then what Halifax have to offer......i know im setting myself up for a mighty crash.....






Tigers for life!!! Not Just for Superleague!!!

Ben Blacks interception needs to be on video loop in Sione's house with a sticky label saying 'Don't Do This' :D


Believe it or not this is one of Fax's major strengths this season. Other Championship sides know this and try to slow us down by holding down for too long. Because referees are conditioned to the generally slower pace of the Championship they rarely penalise for it. Hopefully with a SL referee the game will flow a lot more quickly.

I thought they were OK, but was expecting a lot more from them with them been unbeaten all season and having a bit of hype about them.

They seem to play a very loose game throwing the ball about to try to create gaps, and they have a good big solid looking pack, who can make good meters, and can play with the ball. I was a little suprised to see Dwayne Barker playing stand off, because I would never of thought he was creative enough to play there, and from what I saw last night nothing has changed that. They do however have good creative players in Ben Black, who was excellent, and Penkewich, who has a lot of experience.

I think it will be a good game when we play them, they'll certainly come full of confidence, but I feel we should win comfortabley.

It was nice to see big Franke Watene playing. He made some good yards, and did a nice little slipped pass to create a try.


Barker was playing in the centre last night - the halfs were Black and Penky, then Beswick.

He wasn't very impressive to start with but he now seems to be improving week by week. Scored 6 tries so far.

His drugs ban won't have helped, penky and gleeson are the best 2 hookers out of SL, better than Netherton and one or two more aswell IMO. I don't expect us to win on Saturday but hopefully we'll give you a game and the extra few days rest we've got should help.
