You clearly didn't watch the Toronto broadcasts...it was all very mild passive aggressive stuff but you couldn't miss all the comments such as "the referee has adjudged that to be a knock on" if Toronto dropped the ball.

| Quote: Greg Florimos Boots "We are now at a point where the starting 17 isn't easy to pick which bodes well for the season. Assuming both that Worthington will be starting and we will go with a hooker on the bench, Mcomb and Barber will both be playing after their last outings so I would be thinking one of Garside, Kavanagh, Hewitt, or Brearley to miss out. With Fairbank and Tangata been likely members of any 17 Grix finally has some selection problems.
The pressure is on tomorrow to put in a good performance against a team that will probably miss out on the top 6 but might be capable of the odd surprise result.'"
i think your right it is getting harder to pick a starting 17 and simon does seem to like to have 2 hookers in the 17 i would have gone with just 1 in moore for the bradford game but we all see things differently does anybody know whats happened to woodburn-hall is he injured or being left out

I think it were reported that he had broke his hand but my memory is not what it used to be.

Having coached at both teams hopefully he is a little more evenly aligned tomorrow.

| Well I did say regarding the score and result anything could happen, should have said everything could happen and it did.
In different ways both sides contributed to their own cause to win and lose the game in equal amounts.

| i dont know where to start with that well done bradford that was a far more commited performance witch i expected keep that up and you will be fine this season i had to turn the commantary off could those two be any more biased i bet they were sat in bradfords strip and then the shocking performance from the ref none of the sinbinings were right for me larroyer wasnt offside for the penalty and what about robinson being taken in the air after kicking the ball that should of been a penalty that could of wons us the game he seemed to swing from one side to the other with his decisions no consistency and then for halifax i said we cant afford to get rattald by bradford and we did and lost our way the injuries didnt help but you just have to get on with that i would call that performance naive and incredibly frustrating we should of won that game and that is 2 points dropped and simon grix as to take his share of the blame for that there is no honeymoon period this season he needs to get us winning on a regular basis and quick he cant just blame the players this is his team and that wasnt good enough apart from the first 20 minutes witch isnt good enough

Nope. He summed up the game pretty well. Praised Halifax for the spells when they were on top at 14-0 and when they pulled it back to 26-26. Was pretty critical of the Bulls play for 0-20 and 50-65 minutes, even said Fax player shouldn't of got sent off for the trip which some refs send players off for.
Pickersgill's try was the try of the game.

And breathe Terry. Can't argue with any of that though. The ref was dire and I thought it were funny when the two most bias commentators Ive heard in a long time even admitted that a forward pass lead to a Bradford try and then that tackle on robinson should have been a penalty. A lot of dumb rugby from us though, firstly getting drawn in to the niggle and then secondly we just look to lack a leader on the field. I know Grix had to go off but we just look to lack direction at times.

| Very disappointing- probably believed we were better than we are after trouncing an abject London side. Started well and while forwards were on top looked like scoring almost at will. Then for some reason Bradford pack seemed to lift and with the exception of Springer we seemed totally incapable of matching them. Brough and Lilley who had been totally anonymous started to take control and reverse happened with our halves. Looking for positives Amir played well in a beaten pack - with better go forward him and Brandon would be devastating. Worthington defended strongly but as with all our backs was starved of decent ball for most of the match.i would bring Hewitt and Fairbank back next week to add some fire to the pack in place of Brearly and Garside - if fit I'd also inc Tangata for the same reason.

| At one point in the first half we were 1-7 down on the penalty court so the ref wasn't that biased toward us!
