A steady workmanlike win. We managed improve our discipline which meant York had less attacking field position and looked like they would not score until Valentines Day. Our defence was strong until very late on when a couple of tackles were missed.
Made two good tries for Walmsley and held up a few times or the score might have been somewhat different.
All our props played well and Fairbank wanted to make up for lost time and imposed himself on the game.
Lannon looks strong and fits our style with decent hands. A good recruit.
The halves went a bit better without reaching the heights of last season. Perhaps the other teams have done more homework on them during the close season. Pickersgill looks safe but he aint` no Woody.
To infinity and beyond the Bulls.

For me that was a poor game. York have got the excuse that they had lots of players missing but had a go for the full 80. I agreed with Lannon getting the man of the match he is awkward to put down and Jake and Lachlan were the other 2 positives for me as well as woodburn-hall getting plenty of ball. We do look short of confidence with the ball and why we try to go side to side before earning the right to doesn't help either because the space is just not there. For me we look way off where we were last season especially with the ball and this needs to change soon. This weeks game is a big one and we can not just think that Bradford not having any dr players in there side will get us the win. We really need to up our game.
