Got something to discuss about RL in general? Then this is the place to post it.

Gereat recovery at the death. Glad for them they deserve it. They are the team most likely to give Halifax a decent game.

Agreed Barrow showed commitment until the final minute and kept their heads up when they went behind.. We could learn from them.

I thought this was a really good match, very high standard rugby.
And that final Barrow try deserved to be the match winner - every player looking to offload, and loads of players backing up to keep the move going.

Hope they can go and win the final now

One of the main reasons Barrow Raiders are doing so well is that they have an ex athlete conditioner.
His name is Paul Taylor.
Paul Taylor is immensly dedicated to Barrow Raiders.

Check out the Barrow wingers, Nixon in particular.
Thy are exceptionally fast.
IMO Pat Richards could be 1 of the fastest players in SL if he was trained properly.

In a succesful club, as well as respect, its down to correct training & conditioning. If you are fit and fast, you do more damage on the park, your confedence increases.
From the small amount I have seen at Wigan, this season, there has been very little of this.
