3rd V 1st then. How massive would a win here do for the club and the belief.

We need to be on it from minute 1 to get a win. They are beatable though as Fax have proved twice. I've said it before, Fev remind me of that team you played at junior rugby where every player on their team is bigger than yours and they just bully everybody. But as soon as they come up against a team they can't just steam roll, they look vulnerable IMO looking at their forum they still seem to be clunky in attack. So expecting Chisholms usual man of the match performance against us.

Our goal line defence will be key, if we can stop them trampling over us, then challenge them to create a try on our small pitch, we'll give ourselves a chance.

I do feel excited for this game rather than the usual "I hope we keep it under 50" feeling.

Can everybody make sure that they bring their tape-measure for James Ford to borrow to measure the pitch.

Well we clearly have more to play for than Fev, so hopefully that will help our cause. Next two games at home will be massive if we want to hold onto 3rd spot. It will also be excellent preparation for play off rugby that may follow.

Should be a good yardstick as to where we are at the moment. We'll need to put in a properly consistent performance for the full 80mins which isn't something we've managed too often this year.

Concerned about points conceded v Swinton. Some of our key players are going to find it a lot tougher this week.

Yeah we let in some soft tries by the look of the highlights. That kind of inconsistency will be punished by Fev.

Yeah watching the full game back, we had a bit of luck with bounce of the ball, or Swinton bombing a chance. So much improvement needed.

We need muscle up for this one, can’t afford to get bullied or they will roll over us. I would put out a big forward pack to match them up front, if we can compete physically cut out individual errors and keep penalties to a minimum we have a decent chance of a good result.
All this is easily said, actions speak louder than words.

Ok let's be careful what we say on here. Don't want to prejudice any potential trial or get yourself and this site into trouble. So maybe stick to the rugby.

Why whatever do you mean…

Let's not go there.

Spot on Sam.
We should let the authorities deal with this- a chance remark on any public forum could be seized on and complicate matters.

Got to play MC hammer after someone scores on Sunday.

So, the rugby. The rallying call has gone out from the club to try to get lapsed fans back, trying to get 5k in the ground. On social media, the fans are calling for it to be like the Bash at Blackpool, or York with all the inflatable animals and tools being waved….

This is a real measuring stick for our season.

Liam Tindall added to squad.

Makes sense if there are doubts over Blackmore. First use of dual reg in ages.

I'm bringing a lapsed fan with me on Sunday - hopefully we'll give a decent account of ourselves.

Wonder if he'll replace DFJ, for no other reason than his height. With maybe Briscoe out injured we'll be facing two of the tallest wingers in the league in Hall & Gale.

It’s no surprise Swinton scored their tries down Connor Wynnes side. He’s a fair FB but looked exposed on the wing. I would prefer he get dropped for Tindall rather than DFJ

No Patton in the squad. https://www.bradfordbulls.co.uk/article ... lhQCO3noLY

Looking like, maybe Vella will be referee tomorrow. Aaron Moore was touch judge for the Leigh v Huddersfield game which is now to be completed tomorrow. If the same officials are in charge, which is logical, he won't be able to referee our game as per the ref appointments. Mick Gledhill is suggesting it's Vella to replace him and he's not officiating anywhere else. Mind you, neither is Worsley!!!!!!

Vella is due to ref Ktown v Barrow according to the RFL ref appointments
