Thoroughly enjoyed the game today, it was great not to panic. Well done lads and as Oliver once said, can we have more




Not that I am greedy mind

absolutely right mate, but how much sweeter will it be when we beat them in the grand final?...ok, i had better take my anti-delusion pills before i completely loose control!!

What a brilliant, brilliant performance.
From 1 to 17, I haven't seen a complete 80 minute performance from the Bulls quite like that in a long, long time.
I think Scruton's enormous hit early on summed up the entire match perfectly - they just couldn't handle us at all.
Whitehead was simply immense, completely faultless in defence, making good yard with his drives, and running some brilliant lines that saw him make 2 clear breaks. He also sold Briscoe one of the best dummies I've seen this year. Well worth his MOTM award.

Every one of them really stepped up today, we scored some brilliant tries and they just had no answer to it.

Also need to mention Nero's incredible volley when Lynch was put under pressure and chipped the ball over to him. I've never seen that happen before and probably never will!

Really hope we can build on this now and really put it to Crusaders up in Scotland.

An excellent performance from 1-17 but particularly the pack who absolutely bossed them. Is there a better front row out there currently playing better than Scruton, Le Strange and Lynch or for that matter a better young second row than Whitehead and Donaldson? That Menzies bloke is ok too!

Before any HKR fans point it out though, I thought that Childs had a poor game and that we were the beneficiaries of some wrong decisions. That said, HKR didn't help themselves with their discipline around the PTB and it was nice to be stood with some opposition fans who acknowledged this and were even gloomier than half the Bulls fans have been in the last few years.

Can only echo comments from others. Best 80 min performance in a long time.

Orford ran it ( Great signing ). Kearney has that touch of class at fullback. Forwards dominated. Great defence.

Scruton's hit on Clinton was an absolute monster worth the admission price.

I thought crowd give Worrincy too much stick though. I mean some of them wanted him to be involved in every tackle, getting involved in tackles he shouldn't. I mean his main problem has been being sucked in by opposition players and flying out of the line. Today he stuck to his job especially in defence.

Hull KR never really showed up and were just well beaten. Suprised at how little they offered really, but only had dobson in a creative role it seemed. I said straight away it was a red card. It wasn't the worst i've seen, but he didn't get stepped or anything. Just a bad high shot.

NOW I'M REALLY WORRIED, Great scoreline.

A Leigh fan.

If you had seen the game you would be REALLY, REALY worried

If we played like that week in week out, you should be . . . . . . but we don't, so you've no need to



Looking forward to seeing your guys on Thursday nights SKY game. It'll be interesting to see how you're currently playing.

thanks Guys, the only person I'm pleased for is Robbie Paul, i bet he's really 'made up' with this fixture. I went to Wakefield last season in the challenge cup on a friday night, and we lost 54-0 !!!! Bradford have provided the most enjoyable moment for me on SKY this year, that LATE win against Wigan !!

p.s.
Who is favourite/who would you fans like (apart from brian noble) to replace Steve McNamara next season.
Not seen any 'speculation' as to who it might be. Now you are 'back on track' this season, this is one BIG decision.

Pretty sure the high shot was on Donaldson not Whitehead, could tell due Donaldson wearing deacs old scrum cap! TBF to donaldson he jumped straight back up and I didnt think it would be a red, my first impression was that it was a tired and lazy arm whilst he was being stepped by Donaldson. I'll have to see it again to see what the ref saw.

The ref wasn't great today, but most of Hull KR's problems were self inflicted I reckon, poor disipline and poor control of the ball = many penalties.

And I definatly agree with your last sentance. Oh and McNamara or the "highly rated" (tm) Justin Morgan? No contest today.

It was - that's who I meant - keep getting their names mixed up. My bad.



Bit hard to keep track of all our developing future superstars!

Junior Beaver? (ok that sounds a bit wrong)!!

its going to be a problem isn't it!

We dont have our best backrower of the season today, WHitehead and Donaldson start... and we dont miss a beat. Excellent both of them.

Just watched the SLS.


Sheriffe's rounding of fox was sublime.


Whitehead is running some excellent lines, and that dummy was excellent.

Great 80 minute performance from 1-17.

High shot on Menzies according to SLS. But yes it was Donno.

When people see a scrum cap they think Menzies!

It's great to have a legend of the game at our club though.

Yes it certainley is.
EW as you say runs brillaint lines, but he's got the strength to bust the tackle or bruh the defender away.

Not too much more to add really

A great TEAM performance.

Thought the young boys stood up really well - Elliot being the obvious stand out.

We look very balanced, confident and talented.......lets see where it takes us.......

Although I agree about his attacking prowess, it's his defence that impressed me so much.

He's another workhorse in the mould of Langley in defence. Very rarely seems to miss any tackles and he's ALWAYS getting stuck in with them. He came from nowhere really as everyone was raving about other players in the academy, but he has certainly grabbed his chance in the first team and is currently looking like a future star, while already being a very good player and well worth of his starting spot.

Missed this one due to the marathon. Sounds like an absolute stormer. Well played Bradford.

Who wants to pay me to stay away from now on?

TBH, if Whitehead continues in the vein that he's been playing so far this season then I really can't see beyond him for young player of the year.

I agree.



One of Lynch and Scruton has to get in the dream team (on current form) as the only one they're competing with atm is Graham.
