To be honest I think Fev have ,and do, look quality again. Sheffield also look good but I fear for them if strike players like QLT, 'keep calm and pass it to Menzie,'etc get injured. Leigh obviously have quality for the one off's and Batley at Mount Pleasant are a match for anybody. So where does that leave Fax? Morrell fit, Nanyn in and then a bit of self belief and proper positive support from the 18th man (instead of all the doom and gloom) and who knows, we could give these teams a run for their money. Whatever happens its going to be a cracking end of season this time. Keep the faith.

Dunno what to say really as still feeling flat after that defeat to Fev and can only see one winner in the GF and its them, the rest of this season feels pointless to me now but thats me still feeling down and not convinced our lot are good enough.

The big question is who will Fev be playing in the Final?

Will it be Sheffield or will they run out of steam with all theses games they have to fit in?

Will we be able to raise our game and actually get there?

Or will Leigh be able to do what they did in the NRC and go on a run?

But saying that Sheffield were favourites for the NRC and they lost so maybe there is hope?

couple of new signings today i think

Just because you lost to us the other week doesn't mean your out of it for this season. Just think back to the beginning of the year you all thought you had the best squad in the championship in 2014 and it hasn't changed that much + you brought Murrell in who is now one of the best on the championship A few wins going into the play off and your in the mix like the rest of us You need to get down to the shay get behind the team and see where you are coming the end of the season Stay positive there's a long way to go yet

Ben Davies (Castleford) signed till the end of the year

any good?

Ex Wigan prop ? least we are doing something positive.

I think this proves that we have. www.halifaxrlfc.co.uk/news/artic ... ue-forward

Who Cas ? Nah they're rubbish !

Ahhhh, but now they're not so rubbish 'cos ex Fev Daryl Powell is coaching them & loaning us one of his decent-ish lads. Side-swipe at his former employers ?????

Colin, would it have been better if we had kept Danny?

Who is the better prospect in your opinion.

Oh I wouldn't know. Someone texted me this aft to say that our loanee has had a few injury hits but i don't really know too much about him. Young Mr Fleming moved on to expand his opportunities as a full time professional so I'd say from his point of view, moving back to Championship standard would be a negative move for his development, unless he's not getting much gametime at Cas. No, I'm a big believer in follow your dreams & good luck to the lad. And also, did Karl & Greeny coach him at Batley or was that after they came to us that he went there ?

I'm just hoping that the decks have been cleared with Sam trying his luck elsewhere & Davies and possibly others coming onboard freshen our lot up somewhat. If we fail to get to the GF ( minimum ) this season on top of the NRC failure I would personally be very disappointed with the season's achievements of our team.

I must say, I've loved the semi finals & finals experiences of the last few seasons, & just like the halcyon days of the late 80's you sort of come to expect it when it's occurred for a few seasons consecutive.

I know the playing staff & coaching teams really aim for the league title & that consistency over the length of a whole season but I don't know what we're going to have to do to win the league, in recent seasons our squads have been large enough compared to our main rivals to compete over a season. We've never finished top of the table since we got relegated, that's ridiculous & unacceptable. I genuinely thought this would be our year with some of our signings but I can't see us topping the table & I do believe you're better off finishing in the top 1 or 2 to be in with a good shout at the GF despite Leeds Rhinos & Sheffield Eagles offerings in recent seasons.
