Whatever the outcome, i will be full of admiration for any rover player that pulls on the jersy friday night during this tragic time. Also hope both sets of fans respect a minutes silence, which i imagine they will. Hope its a cracker.

Your right it will be a cracker. I think the fev players and club should get a minutes applause at full time as well as the minutes silence pre game for the recent tragic time.

Very much doubt it.Morro is a consumte professional and will give his all as usual.Grayshon was anonymous in the play off game but I would like to think he just couldn't 'get into the game' rather than deliberately playing half hearted.

I think the game will be won at half back myself.According to the commentary at Warrington in the cup game, the Rovers halves,not sure who,Briggs and Flynn?Played a very well structured and organised game,guiding the team around the park with good passing and kicking.Hoping from big games from Webster and Thacks.

Just joking about morrison. We all know from his time at widnes he was a machine. He just went through a stage where he got knocked out about 4 matches in a row and from then on did not look the same player maybe it was confidence thing or just needed a break.

I don't think Morrison is poor, in fact I did say in my post "Really liked Morrsion" IMO the reason why we struggled in the pack last year was we had players like Ostick and Morrison in the front row who were too lightweight. Gannon was left to carry that pack a lot of the time and he's hardly a heavyweight himself. Morrison is a great 2nd rower, probably one of the best in the division, but surely there's no denying he struggled to make an impact from prop. Are you sure we lost just 1 game when Morrision played? we did lose about 13 games all in all last year. As for the Duffy comments I made of the Leigh board, I know he was a popular player with a lot of Widnes fans, but I just didn't rate him. He seemed to be injured a lot, came off the pitch injured a lot and was no way near fit enough to play his position - no wonder he ended up at loose forward a lot. Credit where credit is due, he played really well in the NRC final, but tbh I probably wouldn't have even had him in the squad because of his performances in the run up to the final.









It wasn't a dig at Ford, more team tactics really. I'm not saying we don't do it at all. As proven in certain games for us and from watching other teams, it does work. Ford did the same thing against Whitehaven when he pulled up. If he hadn't have pulled up injured, there was a good chance we'd have broke and scored. Thats the point I was making there are the odd occasions where we have the FB join the attack but its not very often. For example can you ever remember Yates joining in the attack (from FB) out wide and us creating an overlap? I know Yates isn't Ford, but surely whilst Ford was injured we would have been covering the same attacking moves in training? Anyways, now that Ford (and Webbo) are fit again, I'm sure we'll be all the better for it. With the amount of chopping and changing we've had to do recently, its bound to have an effect on PC's tactics and the execution of moves.

Fev = Away Fans?????

Only two teasms in this league with an away following and neither are from Yorkshire!!

Leigh fans aren't getting deluded again are they?

Widnes and Barrow? TBH Barrow dont bring many due to the distance.

Widnes are in Yorkshire pretty much every other week, i know the place like the back of my hand now.



Yorkshire will however never be as good as Lancashire, the people are just nicer over this neck of the woods.

about a 1000 of us did sheffand approaching that did wire. Around 400 did Barrow and a good and unexpected number are making the trip to toulouse! I didn't think that was bad??

Perhaps I'm mistaken!







Not as many will do work night travel - but that applies to all teams. I would have expected perhaps 7-800 of us doing Leigh or widnes on a sunday the way we are playing. Less than half that will do the Leigh and WIdnes game due to work committments! Shame they're not on a sunday!

I suppose you'll be getting used to the "where were you when you were e?" chants, then?
