Thursday evening and no game thread .

Isnt anyone bothered about Sundays game?

Been a bit of a bogey team Swinton, particularly at Odsal with some high scoring games. Seem to have picked up their form recently. Can't take our eye off the ball, particularly with more games being called off now

More a reflection on how little traffic we get on this site these days unfortunately

Hadn't noticed. Really is a sad reflection on things. Would've gone but the wife is taking me to the Van Gogh Experience in York instead.

It’s difficult isn’t it? The club does seem to be quietly rebuilding relationships with the business community. The board doesn’t update the fans much, but equally no sign of financial issues. So that’s a 6/half dozen issue for me.
We’ve very few players signed for next year. Whilst we’ve not announced any signings yet, Pickers is strongly rumoured to be off, so overall we’re -1.
Stadium future is same as always.
There aren’t many reasons to still be connected to the club, especially after lockdown has done its best to break connections.
I think we’re relatively ok for the playoffs now. I just want to see how we get on against Fev with 2 halfbacks

If we work on rumours for recruitment or losses it’s get busy but another way to look at it is

Rumours of Scott and Millington in and Pickersgill out = +1

I’d forgotten those 2. +1 it is - slightly better

Still no place for Sanderson. What does this player have to do to get a chance?

Perhaps getting Dawson-Jones back into the squad was a higher priority?

Sky are to show all 5 championship playoff games

How busy is the Total RL equivalent board does anyone know? Shall we headhunt?

It has zero users. There is no one there to recruit.

Think you might be looking in the wrong place, it has plenty of people posting on a daily basis. This entire forum is dead, probably not helped by the mountain of adverts that pop up when you try and view it on mobile.

Edit: Unless you're on about the specific Bulls sub-forum, in which case you're right in that nobody uses it. Most discussion is just in general.

The ads are the way the site pays for itself to exist but there are ways around that if you want to know more pm me.

Interesting. I've never been on it but I'd the impression it was a healthy alternative to this one. Turns out we've all lost interest of forums or buggered off to Facebook.

I certainly would say we lost a lot of people when Bullseye selfishly decided to hang up his moderator hat. A lot of people only came on here to bask under his benevolent gaze, but when he quit the fanboys left in their droves. Modding is for life not just for Christmas.

Yes i looked at the equivalent bulls specific forum over there where there are zero users.

Agreed the general forum over there is much more vibrant than the virtual terrace. Its a cespit on the VT. Same people with numerous logins hijacking every thread has ruined it.

Baçk to Sunday. No Crossley (isolation) or Scurr (injured)
Dawson, England, Fleming and Gallagher all available again this week

Losing crossley and scurr will be a loss but hopefully our pack can handle it. Swinton have always been a tricky outfit for us in the past so it would be nice to put a decent score on them.

England back is good news as he’s been great this year.

MDJ coming back at a great time, hopefully with a few more as we get towards the play off.

Great to see MDJ back.

Unless we go with 3 props, looks like a debut for Bradley Ho.

I think a rest will do Scurr good. Think he's played in every game apart from one this year. Taking into account his age and the way he plays, think a rest is good as these last few weeks he isn't quite at the superb high standards of earlier in the season. Think the number of games might have taken a toll. So hopefully a couple weeks off will see his devastating best for the play-offs.

Saw on social media that Swinton player Lewis Hatton is signing for us next year (no idea if true or not) so may be one to watch for tomorrow.

Couldn't resist Sam but why would you want to cut your ear off??

Bradley Ho the latest off the production line to make his debut. Well done Bradley!

13 gone no score so far ... bulls already made 3 errors in attack.

bulls open the scoring ... pickers with the first

lilley coverts 6-0

pen to swinton from restart (moving off the mark)
