Glad to see on Fax Twitter that we will have a match day program again instead of the courier.
Looking for a win next Sunday getting of to a good start.

Its a bit early for must win games but you feel we need to be beating Sheffield at home if we have top half of the table ambitions.

the eagles beat widnes in the 1895 cup at wembley last season. they will continue this form when they wup fax, before being trounced against leigh the week after.

Its going to be interesting to see how a few teams go after an indifferent pre-season. York especially look to have not had a good one and are probably many peoples tips for the top 5. We know full well how not having a good pre season can turn out.

An interesting game first up, they are usually difficult to beat and I never feel confident when playing them as Tubbs always has them well prepared. No forecast as it’s the first game of the season but it looks like we’ve prepared better this year than last so fingers crossed.

Need to be winning games like this pretty comfortably if we have serious top 5 ambitions and think we will...

Cant see York having the same season they had last year.
Sheffield do not look brilliant either so will go fax 24 seagulls 12

Seen that Rob is playing, he always scores against us so would be nice to see that not happen for a change.

Rob doesn't win games though, as the tries he has in him are usually scrubbed by his appalling brain farts he never eradicated out of his game.

I expect the lads to give this a real go straight from the whistle.

We should see some aggression in defense and some go forward in attack.

They are in a far better place fitness / preparation wise than for a long time at this stage of the comp and have the mindset of a side looking on the up.

They just need to temper the above, keep it under control and stick to the game plan.

Up the Fax.

Today's game.
Negatives.
Nowhere near enough time spent in the right half of the field due to distinctly looking out of sorts, penalties and errors hugely restricting our attacking opportunities.

Positives.
Being able to score 4 times in spite of the above, showing what we can do when we get in the right half of the field.
Having the fitness, energy and guts to keep going literally to the last minutes to get 2 of those scores.
The 2 points.
