Where are you sitting at Old Trafford?

Champions elect.

As many wins as the mighty Wigan, Leeds, Warrington etc?

Well played.
Good to put one over Millward.

Great win at a place we don't often get a result. Shame i slept in and missed it.

And I think this shows that I need to stop going to games. Who is going to pay me to stay away?

same for me keep away they win lol lucky they have won a couple of massive game swhen i was there

Sounded an excellent win, going to struggle with away fixtures on Sundays this year but fancy making a few trips

Scrappy, but the radio reporters talked about how good the defence was. And taking 2 points against a play off position rival though has got to be good news

On another note, how awful is BCB's coverage?

sounds like potter worked on the defence all week. just need to get on top of basics like keeping hold of ball and forward passes and we shouldnt be far off

Yorkshire sport was ok to listen to. Seemed some bias towards Castleford, but that might have just been selective hearing.

They are fantastic. The worse the referee is the better they are.

Defence was great for most of the match. We had better shape in attack. Gale & Sammut had more options, partly because our pack stood up better, but also because our movement off the ball was better.

Still lots to work on - ball retention, composure, penalties etc. What was encouraging was that even though we lost composure, we calmed down and brought it back, we wouldn't have done that last season.

Gale is going to be an important player for us. Langley got through a heap of work and Whitehead showed why we've missed him. Once elima and mnm are available I think our pack will do well.

I said that before and got a load of guff from Ryan Sparks on here telling me I dont know about radio.

Which is true, I dont have a clue about radio broadcast, but I do know I want to listen to commentary of the game and not a load of waffle.

Didn't realise we did the second 40 without Purtell, even more impressive considering.

2012 begins! Happy days!

I had radio Leeds on, was pretty even handed when they covered it

thought ref was really strict but dont mind if they are all like it every week with every team

Still lost balls, penalties, knock ons, but not the best conditions. We need to cut this out of our game, its our major downfall. Sounds like Sammut and Gale are starting quite well though. Great win.

Sammut has been a pleasant surprise so far and I think there's more to come

Super result. With so many players to come back in during the season we will be fresh as a daisy during the play-offs.

Yorkshire radio was pretty good. Wagga was on and was slightly pro-Cas but very complementary about our defence. Richard is a good commentator.

I once met the nephew of the guy who does BCB and he doesn't get paid anything. He travels everywhere at his own expense and does it for nothing.

Much better from the Bulls today. The pack worked hard and made much better metres this week despite some pretty tough conditions. I thought Luke Gale was outstanding and controlled the game for us with his superb kicking. Langley looked a lot more like his old self and put in a ton of work this week. Crookes and Kear looked performed well once again IMO. We made it hard for ourselves at times with some errors that we shouldn't be making. Not finding touch with penalties and forward passes straight from the PTB. But thankfully our defence was tremendous for once! Despite Cas have a ton of possession in our half, we scrambled back and soak up all their attack. I expected it would tell late in the 2nd half but we looked the fitter team by the end of the game. We cannot afford to give Wigan that amount of ball so easily next week though.

Big thumbs up to the guys today though, they tackled their hearts out for the full 80. If they can show that much determination and effort a little more often this year, I'll be a happy Bulls fan.

Just got back

Couple of things, I'd love to see the penalty count, we got battered by the ref and he didn't seem to be pulling both teams for the same things with some baffling decisions.

Much much better display, the first half score didn't tell the story and we were much the better team. Gale was great and really controlled what went on but I still don't see what Chev brings to the team and I think he needs to up his game as yet again he made too many errors. There seemed to be a desire to win and it really showed in the performance, great defence and apart from the odd slip up we looked secure.

If Cas lose Rangi their doomed as everything goes through him.

Coming way fom a game happy with the performance. . . .priceless

What was the final penalty count in the end?

Great backs against the wall team effort. Some of the last ditch defence was outstanding. If we play with that heart and desire every week we'll be alright. Despite losing Donaldson and Purtell to injury, L'Estrange to the sin bin and a very very lopsided penalty count we won. Great stuff.

Still plenty to work on but just what we needed before next Sunday. Thought the forwards had the beating of the Cas pack and our defence around the ruck was much better. We watched Chase well and Cas looked short of ideas, surprisingly so when we were a man down.
