After saving the club from relegation the following season Farrell took the club within a whisker of a place in the grand final. Losing out to Castleford Tigers. The year after was less successful for Farrell though, after a poor series of results including a club record defeat by the Hull Kingston Rovers, "Faz" eventually lost his job.
