Halifax Panthers • Round 1 Halifax vs Sheffield

So here we go for another season. I understand the concerns some have regarding us being under done for the start of the season i have them too and ideally would of liked another friendly but we are were we are. So as for the game on sunday for me Sheffield last season were good in attack but seemed to struggle in defence and lacked the ability against the better sides to put it together for 80 minutes as we saw when we played them away. They have made a fair few signings this off season most so in the forwards but even though i have tipped them to finish in the playoffs i still think even if we are a bit rusty we should still have enough to beat them. All being well the pitch will not be too bad as i think both sides like to move the ball about. As for us hopefully Ben tibbs will be fit to play after rolling is ankle at wakefield as i am looking forward to seeing what damage him and jake can do out wide. I would back our forwards to get the better of Sheffields over the course of 80 minutes and for that i will go for a fax win by 28-12.
