Nice thought, but whilst thats not going to happen, at least wakey couldn't ask for a better man to be captain at this troubling time I reckon... tough times for wakey.

I really hope when Morro retires we can get him back at Bradford in a coaching capacity (same for the Beaver)

He's already got some of his badges hasnt he?

Yeah, he's on the coaching staff at Wakey I think

correct. Does their u18's I think.

Yep used to coach south bradford open age.but when moved to wakey part of package was to become their u18s coach so left souths..a good coach as well.

Looks like we might be without Danny Addy. Tweeted a few hours ago that he was in A&E for a scan on a possibly broken jaw.

Probably thanks to the cheap shot from the Dewsbury game, early blow for both player and the team.

assume he picked it up in dewsbury game?

Bloody hell.

He'll be gutted.

Looks like a good side.

Bulls squad (v Wakefield): Michael Platt, Paul Sykes, Chev Walker, Patrick Ah Van, Brett Kearney, Marc Herbert, Nick Scruton, Heath L’Estrange, Andy Lynch, Olivier Elima, Elliott Whitehead, Jamie Langley, Matt Diskin, Bryn Hargreaves, Craig Kopczak, Ian Sibbit, Shaun Ainscough, Gareth Raynor, Shad Royston, Kyle Briggs.

its the squad predicted by Mick on Sunday in the Keighley thread ie the squad minus Crossley etc and injuries. But no clues yet as to how they will line up on the pitch, unlike the side playing Keighley. Very tempted to go to that as I go to Keighley sometimes as the nearest championship side.

Same although I'd rather spend my money on Wakey game. Can only afford to go to one match. Briggs and Herbert to start in halves im guessing with Elima and Whitehead at SR. Scruton and Lynch and Prop with Heath at Hooker. Langers at Loose.

Danny addy broken jaw? Ohh god! injures already... just as bulls were looking up to a good season the injuries start

Suspected broken jaw. Never confirmed on Twitter as he stopped tweeting around the time he was expecting results and hasn't put owt up since. The Bulls did confirm head injury though when he was omitted from the squad.

What I hope to see:

Kearney
Raynor
Ah Van
Walker
Ainscough
Briggs
Herbert
Lynch
Diskin
Scruton
Elima
Whitehead
Langley

L'Estrange
Kopzcak
Hargreaves
Platt

Sibbit, Royston, Sykes to get 10/20 minutes towards end as i'd expect these are ones that might not feature in Cardiff (Sibbit could be 4th sub though)

I 'll run with your 17, and probably your bench selections too.

swap scrutes for one of bench props and I'd go with that too. Only other change I'd be tempted with is swapping platt for royston on bench as latter is more versatile. suspect you could be right though and sibbit could get 4th bench spot for cardiff.

Can't see Sibbit getting beyond around 18th man until we get injuries or need to rest someone. But if he plays a blinder on Sunday, well who knows?

that was my thinking too when we signed him, but he did go well in his stint against fax. Thinking he'd give us a bit of bulk on bench against leeds. Could achieve same thing by starting platt in and playing walker off bench as a 2nd row/ cover for . Depends what potters gameplan is I suppose. Either he goes for power or speed/skill.

How is Royston more versatile.

platt covers ,fullback and wing at a stretch.
royston covers ,fullback,wing and loose forward (standoff at a stretch although I think its more a case of people saying he could play there as opposed to him actually having experience there).

I think Sibbit might suprise a few people this year. Strong and solid. You don't have to be a world beater to hold down a spot.

IMO I would pick Royston over Platt for a bench spot but it's each to their own and we have a game and 2 weeks training before the whinos so anything could happen

2 weeks training til rhinos game. we dont play weekend between wakey game and millenium.

Typo sorry, amended
