I had 25 but couldn't post that many options so I had to cut ten out, I hope people like the choices I've allowed them to vote on.

Three votes, let's see what wins the Ultimate Bradford Bulls moment.

Couldn't possibly comment on anything post 1999, but the 2005 GF takes some beating, especially where we were in July of that year.

Agree it was amazing and as someone who was stood on the terraced away end at Belle Vue on that hot July afternoon watching us leak tries for fun, and then seeing us go on that unbeaten run and lift the trophy at Old Trafford was amazing.

Not to mention the following games:

Bradford Bulls 52-34 Huddersfield Giants: The Giants led 34-18 after 65:00 minutes before we rocked Odsal and it's foundations.

St Helens 18-23 Bradford Bulls: I'll forget losing my glasses in the crowd when Hape crossed for the Winner in the dying seconds. We had finally beaten St Helens in a game of knock-out Rugby League.

**Both the above games were in the poll but had to be cut icon_sad.gif

It was 15-6 when we beat leeds in 2005, we lost 16-8 the previous year.

We beat Leeds 5 times in 2003, twice at Odsal in the League, once at Headingley, once in the playoffs and once in the cup, and Leon's last minute try was 2002.

The first Grand Final win will always be special. After being directly in front/level of the phantom Michael Withers "knock on" against Saints in '99 the win against Wigan in 2001 was fantastic as we absolutley blew them away, and they were very much our equal in the standard league games.

Winning the World Club for the first time (against Andrew Johns no less) was also special to me. I remembered being at my mates, years back when his cousin was over from Australia and was/is a massive Brisbane fan. If we'd beaten Wigan to the title in that year of the Leigh home defeat, the Fox conversion misses against Hull, we'd have had a chance then to be world champions. We had to wait a few more years for that chance. Oh to have seen Fairbank, Powell and Dixon mixing it with that Brisbane pack! (We'd have been hammered, but that was not the point!)

The 2005 GF (had it been there!) would have been my third - so I chose the game that probably changed the season, the win away at Wigan. By winning that game the players knew they could win from any position however low we might go. I think that game had a bigger effect than the massive defeat at home to Saints the same year.

I was in London for that night in 2005 beating Wigan and I managed to pursade the guy behind the bar of the Springbok to put the game on one of the screens. I was jumping around on my own at the end of the game like a looney, but I didn't care!

You should have seen the North stand, it was mental.

Had we lost that game then I think we wouldn't have won Super League that year.

The 2001 grand final for me is the best bradford performance I have ever seen, given the context of winnign our first grand final against a good wigan team.

I would have added the 1996 cup final and robbie's hat trick, I will never forget the tingling sensation as i walked out onto the terrace and saw and heard 20000 - 30000 bulls fans, the blue sky and green grass of wembley and the realisation that my team was in the cup final, it was unreal and the realisation that we were on the verge of something. And robbie's hat trick was awesome.

If people think it would be a good idea, and if we could get agreement/permisison from Bullbuilder and the club does anyone think it might be a good idea to try and put some of these moments on the bullbuilder (popluar video sharing) site over the offseason? Whist waiting for the new season of academy clips? Not saying it will happen but would people watch them as edited 10 min clips (if we could find the footage that is for some of the older stuff)

I've said this before as I have a lot of these games, get the old games out there in the public domain.

It's no good all these VHS tapes cluttering my house.

Think there could be a problem with copyright laws. Presumably these would have been recorded off Sky or BBC, which means they would hold the broadcasting rights? Which I would guess means you need their permission to reproduce them in a public domain?

I don't know much about that sort of law, but I would assume that's the case.

It probably is but there are already lots of old game clips on that site, but even if it is an issue, for old games surely its just a case of asking permission of the copyright holder, bbc, sky or club and surely as long as they are credited in the clip they wouldnt have a problem granting permission to a suporters trust would they??

Might be worth an investigation at some point?

icon_biggrin.gif Maybe something for the Bullbuilder commitee to discuss? We already have a popular video sharing website channel, I'll have some spare computer time over the winter and if we could get persmission and some clips (maybe take the winners from polls like this?) we could maybe take Mike up on his offer of suppling material if the club can't, and we could put a few online over the offseason for people to watch and discuss?

I can't make tonights (?) meeting BTW, and sorry to the mods for some serious thread drift icon_surprised.gifops:

Just a thought.

Certainly worth a discussion. I can't get there tonight, but maybe the others could pick this up tonight?

Adey / Chris / Kev / Mike I think are all going?
