 It is getting a bit boring now. The criticism of his charges was obviously deadly serious

I suspect the public criticism of the players will have been followed by a private kick up the bum. This is the opportunity to show they listened.

[quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

If he sees a turd he's a good civillian and he bags it up.
You've been leaving plenty of them lately.
I can understand the logic of giving them an opportunity to respond to his (underserved, IMO) public criticism before making changes, even though I would have personally liked to see Hauraki for Clarkson, Ablett for Hardaker and Ward into loose.
What I will be looking at is how Mcdermott responds to the errors he made on Monday. |

As a Bulls fan would have loved Mcdermott to make changes. Think we would have been more likely to beat you. I would have loved to face Mcshane & Ward, rather than a hurting Burrow, Sinfield etc.
The same squad, whilst some fans might not like it, will be bang up for this big time. There is a lot riding on this game and i don't think now is the time to be making panic changes.
Bulls win, suddenly we make a bit of a gap, and could potentially go up to 6th. Leeds win, they leap frog us and have Saints back in their sights with a game in hand. Massive 2 points at stake here for both clubs and i can't wait.

Glad to see Richard Moore get a shot. Well deserved on the basis of his performance against saints in under-20's last week. He runs hard and staright and he's got a devastating and unexpected offload when he gets it right.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |

If the bulls hit 6th I'll do a naked streak round the stadium for the entire week.
That would be a turn around of some 182 points difference this weekend. It would be a miracle if bradford scored half that amount against leeds. |

It annoys me "when people don't follow societies unwritten rules":26697.jpg |

So everyones available, full strength I'd go:
Webb
Jones-Bishop
Watkins
Hardaker
Hall
McGuire
Sinfield
Leuluai
Lunt
Peacock
Jones-Buchanan
Delaney
Ablett
Burrow
Griffin
Bailey
Moore

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.:1157.jpg |
|

I'd go with the following:
Webb
BJB
Watkins
Ablett
Hall
McGuire
Burrow
Griffin
Lunt
Peacock
JJB
Delaney
Sinfield
Leuluai
Bailey
Moore
Clarkson
Hardaker would benefit from a rest, and Smith isn't a better option than any of the back 5. Lunt plays 80 mins.

Think I would have Burrow on bench instead of Clarkson  ( I would have Hauraki there before him too..... And Smith. )
Would also be tempted to give Hardaker a run at FB and rest. Webb....after all we are going to have to get used to him not being there.

Whoops ! didn't realise you had Burrow as starting SH ( didn't think anyone made that selection these days ... Our coach certainly never will ).
Webb ( Smith or Hauraki ) instead of Clarkson on bench then.

They should be fresh, they only played for 60 minutes last week and Lunt had a day off.

| Burrow on the bench by the looks of it with Lunt starting. Hopefully we'll see some control from dummy half and Burrow can exploit Bradford's tiring defence towards the end of each half!
Oh and no BJB still.  |
