Quote: Bradford Badger "With regards to Leon, he never really nailed down the stand-off spot at Bradford when he was given the chance in 2003 and we (Bradford) won everything that year. He only plays well when his pack is going forwards and he has another half to do the directing of play. He's a broken field/line runner, not an organiser or play maker.
With the exception of Leeds (their time will come) most sides/squads are starting to level out. You're starting to go through what we at Bradford did about 4 years ago with the great side you have had starting to break up but not replacing them with players of equal stature / quality.
You can't replace people like Scully and Long who were the fulcrum of everything you did (and world class players to boot) with kids like Eastmond, however much promise they have.
If Saturday was anything to go buy, get ready for not only a long season, but a long couple of years. The Warringtons and Huddersfields of our world are likely to get their moments in the sun a bit more often.'"
Which can only be good for the game
