And the Bradford player throwing punches, who didn't get binned?

Weren't good enough on the day because we had to sell more than half our team to stop us going into Admin, if we had last seasons team we'd be no where near the relegation zone .

Let me rephrase....

"Weren't good enough on the day because we were crap!"

Lets not forget the Bulls have lost at least 4 decent players since the end of last season. Looking at your current team, you have some really good players, that should not be performing as bad as they currently are.

If the ref had binned every player who swung a punch after Moore lost the plot there wouldn't have been many players left.

So what about the player who appeared at the disciplinary panel, who threw a punch?

No, the teams on paper are pretty evenly matched. You just lacked a gameplan and the desire to get the win on that particular day, perhaps understandably because the points were not as crucial for your side.

this has probably been mentioned already, but why did mathers' try get disallowed. Looked perfectly fine to me looking at replay

Refs twitter account said ot should have stood, error of judgement.

Look at my post on page 15 of this thread, viewing the twitter link for the rflrefs and see what they now think - similar to your thoughts and mine.

Managed to bring myself to watch the highlights of the game, Gale is the instigator of the fracas, lashes out, sticks his head in Moores face and also throws the first punch....

On the "bradford back in black" video - 1m 45, gale throws the first punch at 1m51.

Not blaming the refs as I doubt anyone could have seen that but coupled with the Mathers "Try that never was" it just sticks in the craw a bit.

Just seems like at the minute, we could fall in a barrel of tits and still come out sucking our thumb.

Think you must be watching a different video to me, Gale didn't throw anything at Moore to instigate it. You had a try allowed from a knock on so you weren't that hard done by. Just be thankful it was a result changing decision like the knock over the line that cost us 2 points at Widnes.

Course it was a result changing decision the try we was robbed of would have made it 16-12 with wakey on top and Bradford would have started to panic more

no he didn't just pushed out with his arm and then proceeded to use his head no doubt exchanging a few verbals at the same time its no wonder Richie blow his top

Watch Gales right arm at 1:51, digs Moore in the ribs.

I can only assume you mean Elliot Kear? If so it is pretty much pushing and shoving from both parties until Moore begins trying to throw haymakers. The video review panel seem to agree with that too given the grades given out by the disciplinary.

You really are clutching at straws if you feel that decision had a huge bearing on the result. Whilst the 2nd half was a bit closer and nervier affair you never looked particularly dangerous with ball in hand except a few strong carries from Ryan.

Agree with that - I watched the video and didn't see a 'dig to the ribs', more of a push.

After watching the highlights of the match, it does seem Wakey's 1st try was a result of a knock on at the play the ball.

And the try by Mathers

Don't understand "never looked dangerous".
It should have been 3 tries to nil in the 2nd half and your team only scored with help from the ref, either direct penalties or starting your sets on Wakefields 20 or 30 (following the kick(s) to touch.
It was a poor game between 2 evenly matched poor teams.
The Bulls just about deserved the win but, it would have been an interesting finish, had Mathers score stood.

On the plus side, you helped our dynamic coach to step down. Every cloud.................

We won the 2nd half 12-2 and had a perfectly good convertable try disallowed!

Can't changed what has already happened!
You may as well blame the Cup Final loss in '68 as the start of where we are today.
If Fox had kicked that conversion, we maybe where Leeds are now and they maybe struggling.
Let's start to look forward instead of getting hung up on things you can't do owt about.

So you have no problem with poor self control from your players then? It's everyone else's fault for winding him up.

Ah bless. Poor thing.

Your selective memories keep forgetting the knock in the lead up to your first try..

Is there an echo in here.

Need to go and talk to themselves on Bulls board.

oh he was well in control as he was gunning for that head, shame we don't meet again
