I update the Luke Gale wikipedia page and I assure you it hasn't been wiped since at least September. I added the Bulls part and havn't taken anything off at all.

agree entirely about gale in a year or two. just think its a bit early this time round,both in terms of his experience, and also think he needs a period in team to earn respect of the other players. Pretty rare for a new signing to be made captain without them playing a game for club. Exception to that is when a club brings in a world class player with lots of experience.

Am I right in thinking the squad is announced today?

Any team news for this?

think we've got til 3pm to make announcement if were using normal rules. be surprised if gale and purtell dont get a run out. maybe sammut too.

We have received confirmation of a strong looking Bradford Bulls line up for the game this Sunday.

Sykes
Ainscough
Purtell
Platt
Crookes
Jeffries
Gale
Burgess
Diskin

Joseph
Sibbett
Bateman

Some interesting selections there. Obviously it will be good to see the combinations of Purtell/Ainscough and Jeffries/Gale, it's also nice to see Addy getting a run out in his (supposed) best position, rather than at hooker as he was forced into last year. Good to see Bateman starting too.

Looks a decent line up

All being well, I will be there....

Thanks for the info.

Looks different to what we have selected on bulls website (walker and hargreaves in team)
