Much more liker it!

Muchos praise to the boys.

42 18 FT happy with that.

Strange...three of the usual scapegoats in that list too. No doubt the usual suspects who did not go will say they all played pants!

Well I suppose he had to be in support to be in a position to actually drop the pass, more effort than from some we have seen this year.

I don't think a regular smiley is sufficient, so...

Good result and what sounds like a great performance. Such a pity that most Bulls fans will not have seen it after such a poor year overall. Huddersfield up next, I'd love us to go there and get a result after some of the posters we have had on here. I'm going to that one though so don't bet your house on it people.

Now we'll be 1 point behind Hull but no game in hand.


I hope we can win our remaining home games (Salford, Catalans) to give us some pride back. Shouldn't be too hard if we do what we did in the first half.

Ditto to all of that! Well done guys. If ONLY you had done that LAST week!

Really looking forward to the reports from those who went, when they get back (and have sobered up...

)

Ditto again. Maybe me and you should just listen on the radio ?

An excellent win by the sounds of it. Well done to the team for making up for last week's debacle.

Wish we could play like that at home.

I think you should check the match report

Sat in Twickenham Premier Inn few beers inside very happy and ready for more beer. The lads played well to a man really. Ready for more beer. Felt very sorry for those on coach who were late :ba$tard M25!!!!!

Just back to friends where we are staying in Reading. Well what an awesome first half, everything just went our way. It was like watching a different team. I can't explain it. But thrilling to watch. The second half could never sustain the effort of the first but defence was strong and we still made breaks but couldn't finish them off.

Langley was brilliant, Halley and Nero ditto. Deacon's best game for ages. Sheriffe was excellent, Platt looked strong in defence. It was almost as if we have finally gelled, just twenty games too late.

Oh well.

Well played Bradford. Lets finish the season strong and give the home fans (finally) something to cheer.

Any news on Newton? He went off half way through first half looking in difficulty and never came back on. Wagga was great though I thought. We didn't miss newton at all.

Must admit it would be nice to now do the same to the Fart owners, after the all the stick from a few of their number on here. Can we do it?

If we play like we did in the first half then yes.

UNBELIEVBLE!!!!!!!

Was a good first half, very good infact on both attack and defense. Slacked off a bit in 2nd half and the last try conceded really annoyed me but never mind.

It could have been more, but it was a knock-on-afon for both teams really. Quins probably saved their worst performance for us aswell.

Like a quins fan said to me " How the hell is this team 12th? ".

Coutesy of those nice people at [url=http://www.skysports.com/rugbyleague/match_report/0,19936,11070_3179056,00.htmlSkysports.com[/url "[iseconds later Paul Deacon [ubroke the defensive line[/u for full-back Halley to go over[/i "

Just back from Stoop and few points from todays game:

- Awesome first 30 mins or so although some of that is down to poor opposition.
- As others have said Langers was superb. Also top performances from Nero and Halley.
- Worrincy very poor - why was Donaldson not playing??
- Feel sorry for fans who turned up late. Looked like some people didn't even arrive until last ten mins of match. Thankfully let the train take the strain!
- Poor crowd if the report on my mobile internet is correct - 3112. Didn't help atmosphere at all.
- Why after destroying them down the left hand side did we rarely go there in the second half? Nero was breaking tackles for fun all game but hardly touched the ball in the second 40 mins.

I missed the the first 17 minutes of the game due to the bus getting stuck in traffic in London. One moaner on the bus really kicked off at the driver because of that but the traffic was the worst I've ever seen it in London. There were moans that we should have gone the m25 route but people who did take that route arrived at the game well into the second half.

However, what I saw in the first half was a team who realise they cannot make the play-offs any more and so they may as well relax and play some rugby. Passes that had gone astray in previous games were hitting the mark and tackles were being made instead of being missed.
That said, London had poor ball retention and were slow at responding in defence.

I think they had a kicking from Macca at half time and came out a lot more determined to score. Even though they had about 70% of the ball in the third quarter we didn't concede then at all. That shows a lot of improvement in our defensive qualities.

The last quarter saw their increased effort pay dividends while we squandered a few good chances in the style that has become all too familiar this season. Their last try was on the whistle and I hope they got a blasting from the boss for not concentrating enough in those dying seconds to make the one tackle which would have saved that last try.

The crowd was low but that wasn't our fault. There were LOADS of Bulls fans there. I'd say almost as many as the home fans. 2 coaches went from Odsal and a lot of others were there too. We even got a song or two going and the reception the players got from the Bulls fans after the game was really positive. The players seemed very happy with that.

Tadulala was back to his best, Deacs had his kicking boots on and everyone seemed to put in a solid effort. Platt didn't show us any reason to want to give him any more chances though and I think he needs to go on the bent bargains table ASAP.

At that point, I actually wondered if I'd really got to the game or if I'd fallen asleep at the wheel in the traffic jam and was dreaming.

Very well deserved win for you. Obviously



Can't add to anything you've said already except that from our point of view the game was nearly a carbon copy of our home game v. Saints two weeks earlier. That was 0-34 at half time, finished 24-44.

Pity that so many of your fans missed a lot of the game. I travel in from Wiltshire via the M4, and avoid the M25 because it's always potentially bad news. But today I used the train and all timings were spot on. From what I saw in the first 30 mins I'd have done better to use the M25.

Well done from one to seventeen on what we must say was the best result of the season and it wasn't even the complete performance







For the first time in a long time this season, I can wear my Bradford Bulls shirt with pride.
