thats a handy looking side out of the 21 man squad named i would pick 1 woodburnhall 2 mcgrath 3 barber 4 worthington 5 rawsthorne 6 harris 7 robinson 8 murray 9 moore 10 tangata 11 larroyer 12 hewitt 13 fairbank subs 14 springer 15 calcott 16 kavanagh 17 bourouh the reason i have left mcomb out and he was not on is own in doing this last week he missed 3 one on one tackles that led to tries in that first half to be fair he did look good in attack but our right and side defence needs shoring up harris is not the best in defence on that side either but he looks cable of creating tries for himself and is team mates and we need to protect him better when defending

That's a fair reflection - I think they targeted Harris/Mcoomb and had clearly done their homework on our right hand defence. Our inside defence on that side was weak as well, the forwards not moving across and supporting, there were a couple of tries from close range where our defenders at the play the ball (Brearley) made little effort or went the wrong way. Our goal line defence has to be tougher across the field, we were stood flat footed on the line waiting for the opponents to make a move and getting pushed over too easily.

exactly i couldn't have put it better myself

It should be an easy win. No disrespect to Oldham but they look like been cannon fodder this season and will go straight back down. So that said it would be no surprise to see us lose a close game.

I get your tongue in cheek remark but seriously...if we don't win today, any win will do but we should be able to put 20 points between us and Oldham, the season will be more or less over. Up The Fax!

Half Time:- Oldham 4v12 Fax.

It's either time to admit we're going to be in a relegation battle or time to admit the job is just too big for the current coaching team

If I was the oldham coach I would have pinned Greg's cannon fodder post to the dressing room wall .

So. What happens now…?

Oldham 16v12 Fax! Didn't watch it, thankfully, so can't comment on this particular match. The players Fax have assembled however amount to a good looking squad so it's pretty obvious where the blame lies for another shocking start to a season, one which is more or less over already.

We lose to Dewsbury.

first things first well played to oldham you deserved your win and all the best for the rest of this season. i did endure watching that match and i have said numerous times were i think the problem lies and what should be done to put it right i would just like to no what the people on here who have defended grix and shot down any critsism of him think should happen now how low do this club have to sink on the pitch before action is taken to put this right
