So. What's everyone's thoughts on this. Think the majority expecting a loss. No HBs. Fax in great form and will be smarting after losing to us earlier in the season.

I really hope we don't risk Lilley. We won't win anything from this game. Maybe 3rd will just becoming out of reach for us with a defeat. But Lilley doing more longer term damage could absolutely wreck our season. As Brian Noble said, the most important thing is getting all your troops fit and ready for the end of the season.

We've seen what we look like with no half backs and it's bloody awful. Sadly I can't see how we'd beat Fax with them all missing.

Just have Mr Grant as ref and you've cracked it.

For the five drives and 'caught in possession' connoisseurs, I think this is going to be a classic... surely we'll bore 'fax to sleep and then sneak the victory whilst they're comatose....

Bulls squad release delayed. Wonder if we have some loan players coming in.

Jordan Baldwinson one 1 week deal.

Strange. He's been playing reguarly for York. How committed is he really going to be? Not saying he's going to t0$$ it off in the game, but how can he truly be motivated for this game.

Would rather have seen Ho. I hope we don't start panicking with endless streams of 1 week loan players which could just disrupt the whole squad.

No Evans or Fleming so clearly he fells we need extra strength up front

I haven’t been watching closely but he must have fallen down in pecking order at York. They aren’t doing us a favour for a week by loaning him, something must have happened

Perhaps he has secret ambitions to play in the halves

Brad Ho is currently not available due to injury.

York vs Sheffield cancelled so York squad have a free weekend

I still don’t get it though, my lads junior cricket team lends players to ensure a match can go ahead and kids get a game, this is the level below SL

Thought Brad Ho was on a season long loan at Coventry? And how come Fleming and Evans are unavailable?

Can anyone tell me if there is anywhere I can listen to todays game?

Many thanks.

Lilley starting. Big call.

If he gets more long term damage think they will be some difficult questions for this selection. We won't win anything today but a lot could unravel if he does more damage.

you're welcome mate

.... i fear without any halves could be a long afternoon. 13 forwards and march it down the middle lol. anyway always good games against fax just hope we can hold em. just want a committed performance then i'll be happy whatever the result

that is a big call ..... ive done a few ribs and it took me 6-8 weeks. id rather take the loss without lilley and have him truely fit at the right end of the season.

Ben evans got pinged and had to isolate. With Fleming picking up a knock to the knee, baldwinson makes more sense.

here we go .... bulls first use

first blood from fax as fax open the bulls def ... 0-6

worrying early ... bulls need to solid in D

kick fromLilley and ends with basket ball rugger but fax end up with the ball

pen to bulls after brown recovers the kick .... bulls on attack 40 out

pass out to DFG is adjudged forward ... fax back in posession
