So you think Burrow kicks for the 'other side' eh?

What? Leeds?

Doesnt little Rob Burrow moon light in a beauty parlour aswell

The best backrow with cover for injuries is at Wigan
One more prop and they will have a great pack.

Hock
O'Loughlin
Tomkins,
Bailey,
Hansen,
Mossop.

All young.

Hansen and tomkins are ok,bailey isn't much,mossop yet to make a mark in super-league and skeletor and soul glow are over-rated.
So i wouldn't be too confident with that back row.

There is some merit in considering the Bulls pack as being contenders next season. It has balance, flexibility and some depth. There is power and pace across them all. (but how to use such in a game plan remains to be seen)
Front Row : I expect Lynch, Burgess and Scruton to be the best combined unit in SL but Kopzak needs to continue his improvement to support them.
Perhaps Langley will support here. He really does need to kick on from his early promise.
Hookers: Newton and Godwin offer differing stlyles of play which is good but both need to step up a notch, Newton with fitness and Godwin with distribution.
Back Row: Morrison & Menzies (if playing in this position) will combine to lead the forwards and few SL opponents will match them for effort and professionalism.
Solomona will contininue to be a worthy impact player but much will depend on how much of an even better player he could motivate himself could be.
If Cook's improvement last year is continued then his enthusiasm and aggrevation should be rewarded.
Worrincey... now there's an unknown starting spot potential. With the rights guys around him and a bit of confidence I can see him being the SL 2009 surprise package.

I'm struggling to get my head around what has changed here,the best pack in sl?

Are you still actively involved in society,or have you since been sectioned under the mental health act?

At the time i was in Lingfield Mount.

We'd be a better pack if the team went forward instead of side to side. Also perhaps if we passed the ball to a forward who's already running instead of one who's standing still?

Anyone else want to point out any other "should have been mentioned when they were playing at under 9's" tactial errors?

The Giants pack is beter than the Bulls pack.

Yeh, and I'm Gandolf.

He would do ya a beter job than Scruton old Gandalf, mate your pack is pants the league table says so.

Whilst our pack hasn't been the best, I'd say our biggest problem is the lack of quality creativity from our playmakers and some average backs. Our right hand side cannot tackle and we haven't had a scrum half all season. Sort this problems out and we should be back among the top six teams once again.

Is that grey or white.

This particularity made me laugh

Ok Gandolf :-

Crabtree, Griffin, Sculthorpe (loan), Jackson, Mason (Props)
Raleigh, Wild, Kirmond, Finnigan, Mossop (loan), Fulton (back rowers)
Moore (loan), Lunt, Faiumu

The Giants pack this season has been outstanding and stood up and beaten most packs they have played against this season.

Don't get to 3rd in the league playing behind a beaten pack Gandolf me old mucker so before someone comes out with utter rubbish, wake up and smell the coffee.

Huddersfield 3rd from top Bradford 3rd from bottom!!!

Before you all start we ain't won nothing yet and we not claiming we have but as Boyd2 said, before he was shot down, there are many much better packs out there than Bradford's

Saints, Leeds, Huddersfield, Warrington, Wigan and Cas to name a few!!!!!

Bradford's pack have really let us down this season amongst others. We don't punish the opposition any more, we don't hurt anybody and nobody fears us. It pains me to say it but I'm afraid Martyn Sadler was correct last season when he claimed the Bulls are now deemed one of the softest teams in the league these days.

You can't beat a front row of Morley Monaghan Carvell

I'm pretty sure we did. Convincingly actually.

Crabtree, Moore and Griffin


There I just have.

i'll see your 21 and raise it 58

Average ages?

We are a very strong team. After all, we are currently holding up 11 other sides in the table.
