| I thought the main commentator on Radio Leeds was a complete nob. All those digs about London fans (lack of). Karl Harrison was fair. He said we looked beaten before we started having lost our best player (took me a while to work out who that was!)
Good that Dixon scored twice (shame he was responsible for 2 of the Bulls tries).
Am I the only one sick to death hearing about poor old Bradford? What about poor old London...we're suffering more than them!

Widnes actually scored [u5 [/utrys, but kicked [u1 [/uconversion. On a normal day anybody would expect to convert at least 3 which would have equated to 27-24. And this was against St.Helens... who scored [u4[/u trys and converted the lot!!!

| Was that an achievement & positive for Powell keeping it under 50?
We will just go on the same how much we learned from this game! a Joke & disgrace!

| Disgrace isn't a strong enough word this week. On top of Powells ineptitude, several players are simply useless and should be nowhere near Super League.

They have a coach and fans that call them to account and let them know that effort is a minimum,

| Not making excuses but we were never going to win with all the emotion and goodwill behind Bradford. Add to that we had no Gower, Kaufusi, Rodney, Cook, Colbon and Golden and really, we had no chance.
What is hard to bear is the fact that we haven't won games that we should have won, such as the home games against Bradford and Hull and the away games against Salford and Widnes. That is what really grates.

| That's it for me. I'm done. If I want to watch Rugby League in London, I'll go to Skolars or even take a drive to Hemel or maybe even Northampton.
I'm not going to traips two hours across London via public transport to watch a side that isn't competitive, has a clueless coach, a dwindling support group, a lack of any sort of ambition and quite simply shouldn't be in Super League. If I drove to Castleford, Wakefield etc, it may take me an extra hour to get their via a car but at least I'll see a competitive side and a reasonable scoreline.

Emotional or not the problem is we are not in the least bit competitive. Not even a close game, they didn't train for a couple of days and look more organised and professional than a team together all week. Same issues as in the first few games. Nothing changes. Widnes appear to be getting closer, we're getting further away. Only Wigan next, could top the ton if they aren't resting.

| Away at Widnes we were very poor and had no right to win that game. In my opinion we are by far the worst team in the league and cannot see another win this year. Surely it must be time to make major changes for next year.

Today was worse than Widnes IMO. We barely completed a set of 6.

| From the outside looking in, i really can't see how and why Powell is still the head coach. Its clear he has no idea about coaching, tactics, and he can't motivate players. Why is he still your coach?

I don't think anybody understands how he still has a job, or even how he got the job in the first place.

| Its a complete disgrace that he's still head coach, and its disrespectful to all the fans who spend hard earned cash on season tickets and travel. I bought a season ticket in good faith, the club are taking the mickey out of this great sport and their loyal fans. We are easily the worst side in the league under RP and going nowhere.

Motivation is what bugs me the most. There are many teams i.e Widnes who are not up to standard but the coach gets them to put a shift in and hence pick up a few points here and there and often the big scalp.
Effort gets you a long way in a physical sport like RL even if you are not particlarly gifted or tactically aware.

Look at Cas - absolutely woeful against Widnes last Monday, yet look what they did yesterday to Hudds. And they're still missing Chase. Teams pick themselves up after a drubbing. We don't.

| Red Mountain - I was talking about that game in the context of our season. Previous to our game, Broncos had lost four games the last of which had seen a decent performance against Hudds. If Broncos were going to turn things around, it was reasonable to expect that they could start with a further improved performance against Salford and possibly a win.
However, as we know, Broncos were absolute rubbish at Salford (I was there) and for me, the writing was on the wall for Broncos from the final whistle.
No arguments from me or anyone on these boards....Salford are a much better side than London. Well done to them.

| The funniest thing having actually gone to the game, the highlight being seeing at least Lovell scoring try and getting drunk again, we have a benchmark now, we know its bad, let's get on with it, let's just make it our season goal to actually complete a set of six and finish with a tasty punt , at least next year we can move on in front of 800 people next year and carry on enjoying the beer

| Is Lovell going to make SL level? He has the size for a centre but has he shown anything to say he has the ability?
