To a point, i can understand that. However if players aren't playing for the jersey, then Cummins needs to show the nuts to drop them and play the academy lads. He needs to demand more from the players. Motivate them, get some fire in their bellies. Also playing players in right position might help us ever so slightly.

This thread highlights the absolute clueless nature of fans as to how sport works

Support your team, through thick and thin, or dont bother at all

Let's see if you maintain that attitude should your club go through the storm that Bradford have endured over the last few years

I'm sure Starbug could of endured a few of them yrs your talking about, super league has turned its back on clubs like Leigh to fester in the championship and now the like of them Fev, Fax, sheffield, Donny, Batley and Dewsbury are getting prepared for the onslaught, once these league join there will be a few crapping them selves as we will

Because we aren't supporting them how, exactly?


PS How does sport work? I've often wondered that.

If your club ever becomes a farm club to Leeds then you'll know what a real storm is.And if your a real fan and a real bradfordian you'll know what real pain is.
It makes you physically sick when you read some of the shiit people write to try to justify it

Then Cummins himself is ridiculous, as he has said just that, for example re the Catalans debacle “It becomes very difficult after that but when you have a handful of players who are way off the pace, as we did today, then we get embarrassed and that’s what happened.”

Despite being boosted by the return of Manase Manuokafoa, Antonio Kaufusi and James Donaldson, the Bulls were collectively way off the pace and did not seem up for the fight.

Asked if he felt the players had let him down, Cummins said.

Cummins saidhopefully we’ll have a handful of players who are willing to do a job for the team.

“If we have then we won’t be far away. If half a dozen don’t turn up or decide to do something else, then we will get embarrassed again.” '"

There seems to no belief in the team. It was nearly half time, when I think it was maybe embarrassment that took over, before too many in a Bulls' shirt actually ran or tackled with much conviction. Then we got the panicky, must score from every play, sort of moves which always end in finding some way to turn over the ball.

I try to be optimistic but it's getting really hard and I have to say it isn't just the team who have given up on staying in SL. SL is over for now but I'm sure we'll get back someday, things tend to go in circles..

Don't panic, your playing us next week.

Also I dont think enough credit has been given to the Devils who at last seem to be bonding under Iestyn Harris. Bulls could well beat HKR next week as we drew with them when not firing at all.

Yes, come on over and help yourself to two points. And improve your points difference.

Don't be so silly. Unless of course they do turn up next week, when we are playing them on Friday.

Anyone who has played sport or RL in particular, whether amateur or pro, knows when they or another player has not put in 100%. I generally tried very hard, some times harder than the week before. To compare the Wigan youngsters effort to some of the Bulls' performances is laughable.
