| Quote: faxcar "LJ and Keyes in the halves for this one, Aston had not only his worst game but the worst game of the 3 of them so far this season both in attack and defence against Whitehaven.
Another commitment means i’ll miss this one but not overly fussed as Odsal isn’t my favourite viewing experience. Up the Pants.
Agree seeing walmsey n jouffret on the team sheet after what they did to Bradford last year will certainly give them food for thought , fax will need a bit of off the cuff rugby to unlock the Bradford defence as even if well executed the structured play is easier to defend against with the pitch being as small as it is .

| On paper we do look quite a bit stronger than them but as we saw against Batley and then Widnes in those conditions, we really do not have the type of pack suited to a postage stamp pitch and the type of rugby that you can play on it. We pick up a win in this one and we look on track for 3rd or 4th with York probably our main rivals.

| I watched the Bradford vs barrow game and Bradford dominated for large parts of the game , Bradford have a big pack which if allowed to get a roll on can cause problems but do occasionally run out of steam due to their traditional style . A good kicking game is needed to keep their big lads turning and tiring them out and we have some skilful off the cuff players to unlock them . Say it every week we need good discipline and patience and we’ll be fine , haven’t managed to do that yet though .

But wait! apparently Bradford's narrow pitch is a major disadvantage for (checks notes...) Bradford

| Well that was a good Friday! Leaving to last few minutes but I’ll take that. Well done the lads, a man down all game and still get the win. Keeping Bradford to two tries. Don’t know why Fairbank started smacking the Bradford player but Fairbanks face looked a mess and their No 10 was smacking Fairbank. It was a red a card and I’m sure he will get a lengthy ban but their No10 should have at least a yellow

| Who would have thought the narrow pitch would help us in that way. What a great win though, Bradford looked awful and the decision to go for 2 points when 7 in front was baffling and probably helped us.

| Well done Fax. To win a game, with 12 men, and not even have to play ‘that good’ shows just how horrible Bradford are at the moment.
You deserved the win and we deserve an apology for that utter tripe but no doubt we will get the usual hot air pumped out despite having one of the most experienced coaches in the game.

| What a sweet morning to wake up to a few highlights from the game. I said to people around me who were panicking around me after the 1st minute that we would still give them a game despite been a man down. I thought winning may be a stretch but if we could be near them with 10 minutes to go we would be the fitter team. I just feel that could be a huge win for our season, not just in the sense that its a win over our rivals, but the way something like that can galvanise a squad. Its not like we have been playing bad but all it takes is something like that to make a difference. As the game wore on I were disappointed we hadn't put more points on the board because their try in the second half was very much against the run of play and we could have caved at that point. Not this team though.

| I thought we could have been on a hiding to nothing after the first minute but with team spirit, tenacity and fitness we were the better team. Amazing scenes at the end, Louis going in over 2 Bulls players on the floor. Thanks also go to Grixy and his team for the fitness shown by the players. A great night.

| Fully deserved win for you lot, but as I commented on our board we deserved to lose more than anything.
Don’t know why there was panic in your end, I said 10 minutes after the card that you would win. Negative, 1 man rugby with an extra man.
You had more desire, grit, determination and ultimately more quality too.
