Quite simply the best 80 minutes of rugby we have played in over 3 years.

That’s the most enjoyable performance from a Haven team in a long long time. Game was won in first 20 when the Ref crucified us for everything, down to 12 men our defence was outstanding and kept them out time and time again, 1 to 17 we’re outstanding but my 3 stand out players were Callum, Chris and Cooper. Just hope lucks on our side and we get a biggy at home, well done Foz and all staff associated with haven, Outstanding  :bow: :bow:

What defence today, absolutely outstanding!!

In attack we were as dangerous as I’ve seen in the past few years. Seemed Callum was given free reign (a bit like Sice used to be) and Rochdale just couldn’t contain him, with the exception of off the ball headshots which went unpunished by an awful referee.

If performances AND results like today do not bring fans back then nothing ever will

Why would you want Catalan?
Tough tie to win, Zero away support and not really that attractive for locals in all honesty

One of the most dominant performances I have ever seen by anyone, every tackle hurt Rochdale, they didn't make one break and didn't get in our 20 once without penalties or our errors. With a fair referee and a bit more composure from us and the score would of been double. We deserve a good draw.

Amazing performance. I expected a close game. Didn't think it would be as one sided as this. Defensively this was the best I've seen Haven in a long time. We had to soak up loads of pressure early on and even out scored them when we were down to 12.If we play like that for the season we'll be hard to beat.

1 to 17 we immense. Callum had his best game for us. Pity he was targeted late on. Taylor was outstanding as well. One player getting better and better is Reece. Big strong unit he was swatting them off like flies..

Team is really starting to gel and big credit must go to the coach. Confidence will only get better from this. As for the next round were the only Championship 1 side left in it. Another home draw would be nice. Our best chance of progressing would be Catalan at home. Failing that a SL side at home or even away for the cash it would bring in. Worst would be a Championship side away.

Well done Haven  ;) ;) ;)

Catalans away for a few days in the sun would be good but for the club any of the better supported teams away from home would probably be best earner
