Welcome to the NEW RLFANS.COM. After twenty-five years of service, the old site expired over the last few days. To maintain service we have had no option but to make an early switch to the new site which was in development/testing. Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

Quote ="Code Switch"ref had an absolute shocker IMO.
thought most of the tries conceded were soft (late one in the first half was good). defence needs to tighten up to what it was early season if we're not to be be humiliated by Warrington
hoping Haythornethwaite isn't out for long.
great game. good ground. great pies

The referee is the usual suspect every week win, lose or draw it seems. Personally, I thought the ref and his T.J.s had decent games, he didn't give things to one and not the other, he let the game flow and I thought that the better team won fair and square. There wasn't much in it at the end but we came up short because of our own shiortcomings nothing to do with decisions by the ref. Indeed, there hasn't been a game this season that the referee has been the difference between winning and losing.
I think your team will be up there at the end of the season, but does it matter with the franchises coming in it would seem the play-offs are redundant.
Pugwash.

| it did flow but some offsides were a joke and there were some very strange decisions - the most bizarre was not playing advantage to Hornets after a knock on and then giving them the scrum. i think it was Ashall who would have been away. lucky for us he wasn't.
i see from the Hornet's web site that Cougars "edged it". hmmm.
felt like 40% Cougar fans - what was the attendance?

Quote ="MICKY1920"
Did anybody notice how the game was being played in fast forward speed when Ryan Smith came on. He Luke and James Hay* all seemed to find a big speed increase at the same time that cut Rochdale up. Wish we had 80 minutes of that ">speed.'"
I thought Ryan Smith had a good game - did he actually come on as replacement hooker? Would be interesting to see him in the team in that position for Monday.

I suppose that it all depends on 'what colour glasses' you wear:
This is the summary referred to on the Hornets website:
Quote Cougars edge thriller
Keighley edged out Rochdale 40-32 in a thrilling Co-operative Championship 1 clash.
The Hornets crossed through Dale Bloomfield (two), Martin Keaveny, Dave Newton, Paul Crook (two) but the visitors battled gamely throughout and ground out victory.
The Yorkshiremen touched down through James Hutchinson, James Haythornthwaite (three), Jason Demetriou, Andrew Shickell and Oliver ">Pursglove.'"
A strange report when you consider the quality of some of our tries and the fact that Hornets were only level at the start (0-0) and half-way through the first half (10-10).
OK, the ref wasn't all that great and forward passes on both sides, from which tries were scored, were missed but when a win is 'ground-out' it is usually a dire affair.
Roll-on next Monday and let's hope that regular lady supporters, who normally pay at the gate, will show their support and donate their usual entry fee to the club

It looks like you are right.
Shame really, as it will lead to the end of the lower league game.
