Not it be overly dramatic. But I think that's our season done right there.  I can't see us wrestling second from York. Even if we beat them in two weeks (which I can't see) 


I don't think we recover from this. There's only really Souter to come back from injury.  No else really that I think really improves us. 


Too many players who simple aren't good enough who Noble refuses to drop. He's lost the plot in selection. Changing your spine during the game NEVER works. Meadows will probably be back next week, we'll have another shuffle round and somehow end up with Hallas throwing crap passes at Hooker again. 


That last set summed it up. No composure, no idea. Kick it to Hooley, who caught it to be fair and had no one around him to offload to. Why not kick Okunbor who scored in the first set from a kick?

I said it after the York Semi final and after York the other week. 


The mentality is weak within this club that when we get opportunities to reach finals or create space between the teams below us we completely bottle it. 


We had yet another opportunity to go joint top today and we just can never handle any pressure, we are weak. 


Yet again, Barrow do the double over us. Why Lawrence, our most experienced player and captain gives away a set restart 30m out which they go and score from, when we were in the lead, just sums this club up perfectly. We are bottle jobs, we are weak and something has to change because it happens season after season and I'm getting sick of it. 

Massive opportunity missed.
Something wrong with the defensive coaching, teams break our line far too easily.
Like has been said can’t see us recovering from another abject defeat.
With the player rosta we have, should Barrow be doing the double over us, I think not.
Don’t know where we go from here but  It won’t and shouldn’t be super league. 

Another very frustrating afternoon for us Bulls fans. We managed to turn in a lacklustre performance for large spells but somehow clawed our way back from 12 points down only to throw it all away in the final five minutes. We started to play well during the final quarter of the game but in typical Bulls fashion, just as momentum swung our way and a comeback looked complete, we hit self-destruct.


A chance to go top of the table was there for the taking, but instead we now sit third behind Toulouse and York. That game didn’t just hurt, it epitomised our season. Inconsistent, infuriating, and ultimately falling short when it matters most. This team are way off challenging for the top spot.

Noble has always said wait until we are 10-12 games in to see what sort of tesm we are.
Well now 14 games in and we know.


I would still like to see Hooley at FB, Holmes in the halves and Lilley at hooker.


To me that's blatently obvoius but not to Noble.


Keyes played very well today and can hold his head up.

Out coached, out thought, and out fought again. Didn't the York team a few seasons ago tell us you cannot win this league with aging SL players and loanees. Sending our top try scorer to Batley to make way for a has-been makes no sense along with so many other decisions Nobby is making at the moment.


Needs to change quickly now or we blow a chance at SL.

I notice Gill scored a couple today for Batley

I watched the game on the live streaming ,if you think Micks biased the two commenting were not very neutral but there you go. One of the comments was that Ritson mentioned the reason why Hurrell had been at 4 clubs this season but they didn't divulge what it was. I feel sorry for the fans who made the long journey. Again we shot ourselves in the foot. 

I've defended Hurrell a little as I thought some of the criticism was unfair but he was awful today. Missing tackles, still on the floor once the ball was being played etc. If they offer him a contract we deserve all we get this season.. which will be naff all.

The pack for me needs reinforcements - it simply isn't good enough. We've been out muscled too many times this season and we really lack anyone to punch through and offer some momentum.


Same old problems continue to haunt us, I'm not sure whether even a couple of quality recruits would be enough unless it comes with a massive attitude shift.


Too many times we've tried to win the match in the final 25 minutes, it's not acceptable and some of the players need to fix that attitude or be on their way. I think after 5 hours driving to watch that garbage, I'll make that the last away game of the season I bother with until I feel we have some players who want to go into battle for this club.

That's two more than Hurrell. Who on performances so far needs sending back to Saints.
