I have to agree with noddy on that one.



Two well taken trys by Gavin Duffy brought us back in to the game in the second half.

So it's Oldham next Sunday and we can not afford any more slip ups if we are to get promoted.

One try by Duffy. Belcher got the other.

The sun was in my eyes Mick.

Also Paul Drake Scored a perfectly good try that the ref said was called short. It was right under my nose and I filmed it. This would have given us a bonus point.

Thanks for video Mick. Sums up what people have been saying. I agree with Loyal fan. Belcher should have put his body on the line in that situation, but he probably knows that. Belcher for me has been a little dissapointing this season and certainly needs some work if he's to live up to that potential. Some work for JD to do. Oldham were well beaten yesterday so they'll also be wanting a win. All makes for interesting clash and am gutted I'm going to miss it due to work commitments. I just hope the women take advatnage for the offer and there is a large crowd to spur the lads on to what I hope will be win number 3!

I have to disagree on the Belcher front.

I think we forget he is still a young a relatively inexperienced player who missed much of last season with injury. I also saw him break the grip of 3 players to get over the line to score our first try. He also put in some critical tackles.



Whilst we are having a go at Belch it is also worth remembering he is the second highest scorer in the team in competitive games this season and only Lawton Duffy and Cartledge have scored more tries.



The people who say he never put his body on the line didn't see the bruises he travelled home with on his face.

Well that may be his problem.

He wants to stop tackling with his face

What I spoke about was that incident where, in my opinion, any decent full back should have taken that ball. I did't say that he NEVER puts his body on the line.



You've seen more games that me this season Mick so I'll bow to your game time knowledge, but considering Toulouse in the Challenge cup was JD's strongest team (his words). Where was Belcher?

I concede Moss is in great form and would be my first choice full back but as he has a nasty eye injury at the moment and looks likely to be out sometime I don't think Mr Belch is too bad an alternative. Hopefully his form will improve more and more and JD will have a dilemma of which one to start with. I think in the position of fullback or halfback more than any other you mistakes are exposed and your good play can go unnoticed.

Good point.

Belcher's a decent prospect playing what is the hardest position on the field to master. You make a mistake at full back, it invariably leads to a try.



I don't think he lacks commitment, just confidence really. I think he needs a sustained run of games in the first team to get that, he's not really had the chance to shine properly at first team level because of the injuries he's had. I think the try he got yesterday will do him the world of good.

I'm with LoyalFan on this. The clue is in his name. Fan is short for fanatic, which means extreme and uncompromising. I am a loyal [usupporter [/u so would never say such things openly. There lies the difference.
