| Sounds like a great effort by the lads
But - 13-2 at half time - we have to close down games.
What do you guys that went make of it?

| Followed it on Twitter and looks like we made a lot of handling errors but I guess conditions were poor but it was played on a tip.

| Good effort from the lads we really had them rattled first half and had a deserved 13-2 half time lead, they came back at us second half and scored 2 quick tries which put them in the driving seat, we did lose our way a little but again showed our fitness and got a breakaway try to get it to 26-19 only for them to get a lucky last try which put some jam on the scoreboard for them.
Only down side for me tonight was Alex Brown he was poor and we need a new winger to replace him.
Fax fans were terrific and sung until the end and the lads deserve credit for pushing them for most of the game.

| We had them rattled at 13-0 that penatly gave them some a foot hold. Second half disappointed with first 5 mins but expected a backlash just wish we'd not conceded that 4th try and had a good crack at them with 1 try in it. Both teams played good stuff 2nd half and i'm proud of the overall effort need to concentrate and beat Hunslet now no good if we slip up against them

| Same old fax and thats not a criticism tonight, they gave their best as they have done all season. Again we we seem to get punished for our errors big time. Bradford were bloody average there's nowt to fear in this league. I wonder how long the Gaffer can resist getting another winger and replacing a penalty machine prop. Anything going on humberside?
Murell?......

| Why did they continue to kick to the Bulls most dangerous player?

| Once again this game showed that we are very close to beating a full time team and imo if we can bring a couple of quality players into this team we can make top 4, It will be interesting to see if our bod can find the funds to do this.

| Great effort from the lads, the poor start to the second half undid some of what we had done, to be fair to Bradford they weren't at their best but stuck at it and got the result.

| I thought the main difference between the teams would eventually make a difference in the result, but I admit to being worried as to how long Fax could keep it up. Not sure if Fax ran out of fuel or Bulls went up a gear. If Fax don't go full time and more do then will the available pool of players shrink and then what. There are still players who choose to be part time. Maybe a core of full time padded out with some good part time.

| The game was exactly as expected, full time team with more energy in the second half. Really proud of the effort though. Would have been a better reflection on the game if that last try hadn't been scored. A couple of their tries would have definitely gone to the video ref....
I hope most of those fans fancy a look at the shay in July.

| Once again a great deal of effort and superb first 40 mins with Morrell controlling the game with a superb kicking game built on the back of another good display from our pack, who have not been outclassed by any pack I have seen yet. We need to get another playmaker to support Morrell as too much reliance on him for the full 80. When he is a little off it, or worse still injured, we have nothing to offer as plan B. We also lack that cutting edge in the middle backs. looks to me that Saxton will be given another shot to hold down a wing spot( I see Rob is ripping up trees at Shefield!). Bulls class and £500k difference in salary capability was just enough to see them through. Brilliant support and noise from the Fax faithful. We are on the wrong side played , won, lost but to be fair we have played Leigh, Bulls, Fev,London now and just need to make the most of playing the lower teams-especially points difference as that will help us finish higher than our current league position of 7th.The league table never lies and we are at where we deserve to be at the moment. still plenty games left including Bulls at Blackpool!

Pretty much this.
We needed to post more points in the first half when we were well on top but again we just lack something in the backs and as LTD says its another game where our pack came out on top. We took wrong options in the first half to spurn chances and then Bradford hit us very quickly in the 2nd half and that was that. If we could have weathered the storm for 15 minutes in the 2nd half we would have won that game. That said it was a brilliant effort against a full time team and with a bit of luck as daft as it seems we could have won all our games this season. Agreed with what people are saying about Brown, he has been very poor and needs to up his game. He is fine if the ball is in his hands but getting it there is difficult and his kick defence is poor. Unfortunatley it doesn't look like Saxton will play any time soon if at all so we need to bring someone in to put him under pressure. Potts has been very good again and does what is needed when he comes in to the team.
I thought Salty was class again and has easily been the success story of our season. I thought Heaton went very well, he will get better, Murrell was class for the most part, we need him in the team. I would take 17 of him every single day of the week. Johnston will learn a lot for him but he just needs a bit of help at the moment but I can see Johnston becoming a good player at this level he just needs to learn to take the team around the park as good as someone like Murrell. Pack was awesome again, I thought Calahane had his best game for us and the rest kept up to the standards they have set all year.
We are getting there.
