If that is the case and Blythe comes back in at centres, if Mullaney is fit i feel Shaw will be surplus on Sunday regardless of goalkicking ability - i think Sunday at Donny was the poorest ive seen him play

Depends who is fit or whether Lowes prefers Mullaney or Addy at HB. I think he would prefer Mullaney as a straight choice, but due to injuries in the back line and we having plenty of cover in the back row, i think he will go with Addy.. Think with this being such a tough game, Lowes may give Blythe another week. Second game in 7 months and having to face Menzie Yere is a tough ask for anyone. Injury doubts over JPB, Purtell and Mullaney as well.

Mmm, the way we've been defending I'm far from certain we can just ignore goalkicking ability...I'd love to be a fly on the wall when Jimmy goes through the possibilities with Rhino!

Hits? I remember the Eurovision winner: "What's another Yere"

On a different note, Londons team on Sunday will be a bit of Bulls old boys reunion

Yes, and one thing Bradford has done quite well in recent years is populate world RL with some talented players and coaches. Always interesting if you're bored to pick the best available fantasy Bradford side, including both existing and former current players. I mean, you start with the Burgii, Peacock of course, some would still put Leon in there, then you have Atkins & Bridge, Ferres, Kopczak, etc etc etc but there are some interesting selection dilemmas.

Have a look at what you could've won XIII (all had to have played in the Bulls academy)

1. Curtis Naughton
2. ??
3. Ryan Atkins
4. Joe Wardle
5. ??
6. Leon Pryce
7. Chris Bridge
8. George Burgess
9. Keale Carlile
10. Jamie Peacock
11. Brett Ferres
12. Elliott Whitehead
13. Sam Burgess
14. John Bateman
15. Larne Patrick
16. Craig Kopczak
17. Tom Burgess

18. Mark Flanagan
19. Oliver Roberts
20. James Donaldson

I'd put one of Purtell, Baile, Uaisele or Walker up against Yere, certianly not Henry anyway. Hopefully Blythe will feature or Walshaw. Shaw to the wing is an option, his goal kicking alone is worth it, if Mullaney were to go to full back. However, even though he does drop a bomb or two occasionally and can cost us points for it, I've been impressed with Shaw enough to keep him at 1 for the rest of the season and bring him into the line more.

You missed off Stuart Reardon and Karl Pryce on the wing

Funny, according to the media only Leeds, Saints & Wigan can be bothered to produce young players
