| Quote ="bullinenemyland"Suggest you take a look at the highlights reel for the evidence... Evans takes a blatant swing to the mush from Whiteley and should have probably been binned at the very least.
Ultimately it was missed by both the ref and the linesman and ended up in a try from the immediate set of six, rather ironically from Whiteley.
Again another example where York have been on the end of some good luck/bad call from the officials.'"
It’s as clear as day on the video. The touch judge is stood in front of it too.

Here are the goal-kicking percentages for the season to date.

Lilley 75%

85-90% really? That's fantasy land. Anyone performing with that success rate would be in the top handful in the world, and probably at the very top.

Never did either of us say there was a conspiracy theory so please don't jump on the bandwagon with that troll Bull Mania.'"
Hey Mick,
Never mind timekeeping it was clearly Damian Irvine's fault we lost. Was it 5 minutes into the second half when York went for their first drop goal. Damian clearly said "I'll tell you this. This game won't be won on a drop goal"

It was mentioned in the commentary yesterday that Bulls have been involved in 11 matches where the score has been less than 6 either way. Does anyone know how many of the matches we have lost would have been won had we had a 85% lick rate.'"
Three league games and the Challenge Cup game vs Halifax.

It happened right in front of me not more than 10 or 12 metres away. Evans copped a bad one but I'm far from sure there was actually any malice in it. Lack of a penalty was poor refereeing though as there was clear contact with the head and it should have been automatic, intentional or not.

I wonder what Ryan Shaws percentage was when he was with us. I thought he was up in the Henry Paul category with his goalkicking.

Indeed Im sure he will have been in and around 80 at the least. Wouldn't be a bad option to resign him,

It would have been 80% ish yes, he was a superb kicker. The problem was that he was nowhere near as good a winger as goalkicker so, even though he had quite a few appearances I don't think he was the first choice when everyone was fit. To be honest I was surprised he got a gig in SL.
If we lose Ethan it may be a different story but for mine he isn't in the same league as either Ran or Hitchcox.

| Win lose or draw I’m not bothered about the result, but what does concern me is that tackle on Evans, it’s a shocker and needs looking at by the rfl, the referee and linesmen also have a duty of care to the players, Evans is no softy and for him to stay down says it was a bad tackle

As I said, fantasy land, which you clearly agree with. I doubt any of the teams he's coached have had a kicker with that success rate.

| As a long-standing York fan I wish you all the best for the rest of the season not all York fans dislike Bradford I personally think you brought so much to league 1 last year and the championship this year.
We have a very tough run in and a place in the top 5 is far from secure and I could see you winning every game now I think Toronto will rest players rotate till the playoffs so for us both it is a good time to play them.
Anyway good luck for the rest of the season and I think if you add more forward power to your squad you will be challenging for top spot next year.

Goal kicking %s are almost meaningless without the other important variable - where the tries are scored. A player like Ethan Ryan, for instance, who excels at both corner flag finishes and also at catching high kicks to the corner, is going to have a significant detrimental impact on his goal kicker's % success rate.

| Whatever the percentage, we've missed far too many "gimmees" this year. Two again against York. Need to improve

Doesn't he mean that the easy goal kicks should have been a 'gimme'?

I'm sure he did, 'cos they were. And I think the kickers concerned would have thought that too, but these things happen. It's just unfortunate when it comes back to bite you on the bum.
Incidentally, if JK actually said he wanted an 85 to 90 percent kicker in the championship I'd guess that was more like, "I would like to win the lottery" rather than something he truthfully expected to have in this division - quite a few SL clubs haven't got that standard kicker.

| I mentioned before that Ryan Shaw would not be a bad signing for us if Ethan goes. Somebody else posted that although his goal kicking is first class they didn't rate him as a try scorer. He has a strike rate of 90 trys from 162 appearances. Not bad I would say?

| Yes I was talking about goal kickers. York have beaten us 3 of the last 4 occasions. Even then it was because we were given a penalty after the hooter. If anything we're gimmees for York!!
