Completely agree.

If we look at the number of halves of rugby in which Bradford have failed to score more than 1 try...

Vs Huddersfield (2nd half = 1 try)
Vs Saints (1st half = 0 try)
Vs Saints (2nd half = 1 try)
Vs Salford (1st half = 1 try)
Vs Salford (2nd half = 0 try)
Vs Wigan (1st half = 0 try)
Vs Warrington (2nd half = 0 try)
Vs Hull (1st half = 0 try)
Vs Hull (2nd half = 1 try)

...9 from 14! It shows just how easily our impotent attack is being bottled up.

People often say that in modern rugby league 6/12/18/24 points is not alot and can be scored pretty quickly. However, even with "ok" defence the complete lack of cutting edge means that a 6 or 12 point deficit is usually going to be decisive, no matter how many minutes are remaining.

Makes Deacon's sacrifices over 10 years even the more remarkable when he was plainly physically not up to it.

I'm not looking forward to the Leeds game as much now. Bentham is the ref, and both times we've had him so far he's been terrible imo.

Sculthorpe's game is not scuttling defenders though. He's fat & lazy but with excellent ball handling & short kicking, & a penchant for head high shots.
