| Positives (let's start with the hard bit!):
JJB was colossal for us - a superb performance
Ablett - I feel so sorry for him that we've played him out of position for such large parts of his career - looks international class at times
Sinfield - Another attempt to drag us out of the depths with little support
Buderus - Got us moving forward much better when he returned & a monster in defence
Negatives:
Team selection - when our game plan appeared to be to go wide early why have we left Hardaker and BJB out of the 17 and played Ablett at centre
Huaraki - The above selection meant he started, waste of a shirt. His 2 powder puff attempts at tackles in front of the SS in the second half were an embarrassment.
Smith & Delaney - COuldn't catch a cold in the first half
Tactics - Prop forwards running in and stopping before the line to a second rower running the same line behind them
Fans - booing Diskin before the game was a disgrace. A man who has won 4 Grand Finals, given 10 years great service and arguably been pushed out of the door deserves a hell of a lot more respect. Fair play to Disko for acknowledging the SS after the game albeit briefly.
Fans 2 - Making noise during the minutes silence is bad enough. Shouting from the back of the stand that people are cocks for doing just makes it a hell of a lot worse. What do they hope to achieve
Ganson - I need someone to clarify this but should he really give penalties for not standing square when the ball is passed wide from dummy half and the player gets nowhere near the ball - this happened at least twice. There also seemed a lot of doubt over there first and our second try

| Think the noise in the southstand in the minutes silence for people who have given there life is appalling. Smith and Delaney agree both poor in attack in first half. I thought that peacock seemed to go ok in the forwards, better than I have seen from him before this season.
Tbh from where I was the only booing for diskin I heard was when he took ablett high.
For me ablett and Jjb were standout players
But Bradford deserved to win and played better than us. Their second try was very good

He was booed by a large section of the South Stand both times the teams were announced before the game. He was booed after the high tackle which was fair enough and then each time he touched the ball after by some.
A disgrace.

I can only imagine I was in a state of shock from the squad selection and performance

He was one of our better players - one of 3 or 4 players who tried in vain to drag us off the floor

I agree tad, also another shocking team selection, hall going off injured, we had no cover, despite bish and hardaker being available, why not go with webb, hardaker, smith, delaney, hall, to start with, then when hall goes off, you can move smith to the wing, abbo to the centres then atleast youve got some pace in the backs still. i know you can't predict hall getting injured but a smarter coach with the options he now has in the backs would have cover in the 17 incase injuries occur like tonight.
I feel the players are trying really hard plenty of enhusiasm, but their not smart enough with the ball, no movement off the ball just too predictable. webby kicking on the first i could believe, that apart i thought he was one of our better players tonight

| One moment that summed it up for me was, during one of our many possessions in Bradford's 30, we got to the 6th tackle, and Peacock had to put up a high ball. So blooming clueless.
We could have played for another hour, and we wouldn't have scored a try in that second half.

| Takes some doing losing at home to Bradford but we've done it! 5th home defeat of the season. Good luck with the marketing people for season tickets for 2012! I remember thinking in the first game at Cardiff how exciting the season could be. I felt we'd ship in points but score plenty too. How wrong can you be!? When lauititi threw the ball forward under no pressure to a White shirt it summed it all up late on. Lots of sideways running, little organisation. The effort seems there to be fair but what the hell is done on the training ground??

| Doesn't this look like another case of 'we dont like the game plan, we'll play to our own' a la last year?

| An embarrassment tonight and 2 very poor teams, pretty sure my under 9's controlled the ball better tonight at half time. Same old leeds if plan A does not work we dont have a plan B. At least i know my phone in working order from over 100 texts from bullshi t s
