it's the Chris Bridge, Stu Reardon, David Solomona, Ryan Atkins, derby

Wires by 16.

no stat in there for number of bell ringers delivered by ben harrison.

Or by Nick Scruton.

Is Harrison always eying up the big hit? Could be the reason for his 17 missed tackles (not criticizing, Burgess was often the same, and when one comes in its worth it!!!)

Harrison was really good against Harlequins, Huddersfield and Cru-cru-crusaders, but has saved his worst games for Cas and Wigan on SKY. Maybe this weekend will be when he comes good on the TV.

I am really looking forward to this match.

Carnt he handle the pressure?

I hope it's coincidence. He really broke into our first team at the end of 2008 (he'd played before but only sporadically). There were some fans who doubted he would make the step up, but last year he made himself undroppable. Smith obviously rates him above all of our back row bar probably Westwood. He will be England loose forward this autumn.

What pressure?

Solely coincidence that his two less than great performances were on satellite television.

If he is under pressure, then he wouldn't be playing the way he's currently playing.

Either way there'll be a few sore bodies afterwards whether it's Morley & Harrison or Lynch & Scruton dishing out the bellringers it ain't going to be a game for the faint-hearted. The biff will be back on Saturday!

There will not be any contest. Phil Clarke said Lynch and Scruton have been the best props in the competition. Morley and Carvell haven't got a chance in hell of getting anywhere near them on Saturday.

Great player as he was, Phil Clarke talks a load of bobbins

Burgess, O'Loughlin & Langley will all have a say i'm sure, but I think Harrison will definitley be in the squad.

Does anyone know why Harrison is listed as a prop in the RLFans fantasy league?

Not sure but I'm quite happy he is!

I dont think this game will be won by the forwards.I think a special play by Orford, Monas, Myler or kearney will win it in the last few mins.

Anyone know if Briers will be ready for saturday or is he being unleashed at saints the week after?

What stats don't show is how many times Harrison stops a massive forward dead in his tracks... You can see the boy lives for tackling people.... Making good yards as well in important areas of the pitch.

....and of course he is always right. (after the game is over). Spends 10 minutes commenting about what we've all just seen and tells you nowt of any use. The blokes a plank.

see this being a good match but warrington winning it. if warrington get tw tries ahead at any point then it might be hard for bradford to stop us when we get going

I feel we have to put a marker down in this game, Bradford even after a poor couple of seasons by there standards are still considered to be one of the "big four" in superleague, and after already suffering defeat against Wigan at home, we really need to show the rest of superleague we can beat the big teams on our home patch, so we can be considered genuine grand final contenders.

Prediction: Wire 26-12 Bradford

We just need to ensure we play our style of rugby. It seems everyone we are playing at the mo is trying to slow the ptb down. If we can, and i'm sorry to quote Paul Cullen in this way, land on knees and elbows after the collision we stand a real chance of Monas and Higham doing some heavy damage around the ruck.

Additionally, Wigan seemed to have some good success out on the fringes, could this be another time that Kingy rips open their back line? And if our back row has good service from Myler and Briers (if fit) then i think a reasonable win should be on the cards.

But then I've been wrong before

Hey you lot...who gave you the right to have a totally sensible and interesting and balanced thread about your next match? This will never do!



Seriously...good one guys. Hope the match is likewise, and may the best team win.

this is purely a fantasy team question...Who will be kicking this week? Briers, Bridge or Myler? Or even hicks, god the list is endless ha ha

How remarkable.

Both got good packs, decent at halfback. Although our backline is significantly better in my opinion. I'd take Hicks, Bridge, King, Atkins over Bradfords anyday. Although dave halley is a really bright talent at fullback.
