Very solid first half performance from the Bulls. Toronto started very fast but we have done some great last ditch defending.

George Flanagan with a clear as day squirrel grip tackle. Assume he won’t play again this season for a challenge like that.

Great effort. Same again second half. Keep getting stuck into em!

Yeah Flanagan in some hot water for that naughty antic.

And we’ve collapsed.

Well that was an utter depressing second half. Collapsing is the correct word.

Too many players being carried. Crossley is absolutely done. If Callum Bustin put in somee of theCrossleys defensive efforts, Kear would be going potty. Ryan coming up with too many errors every game and at crucial times. If he doesn't cut them out he won't last long in SL.

Pickersgill isn't good enough. Another pathetic attempted tackle, brain dead play in taking the man in the air, and just provides no attacking threat in the attacking line. Brown better have been ill because if Kear dropped him for Pickersgill then I give up.

Same old, same old. Just not good enough. Or not consistent enough. I don’t know. Should have gone on to win this after that first half, just seemed like they couldn’t be bothered.

You guys are being very harsh imo. That was a super league side in all but name and you could see our players were busting a gut to stay with them. Toronto made yards with ease and it was only some last ditch tackles that stopped the score being even higher.
I thought our second try was well worked, good support from Pickersgill and a decent finish from Webster, who was everywhere today.

This

That Toronto team is quite capable of beating at least the bottom 4 SL sides - it bristles with talent across the park. High expectations? Not from me..

A flattering final score. Those lads ran their blood to water and you cannot ask more than that.

Tactically - questionable for sure. But at this point - nothing to be gained by pointing fingers.

Concerned at the continuing spiral downward in attendance figures - although I thought there were more there than the "official" announcement.

Good to see the stand fuller than usual with an intermingled set of fans who knew how to behave themselves and not end up fighting on Sky TV

Switched off for ten minutes after half time.

Some way too harsh judgments on here. It was an excellent game, but the essential difference is that Toronto have far more firepower and invention to call on than we do, and when they let the ball move, we found it too hard to defend against. They looked good.

It is therefore to our great credit that we kept them relatively quiet fopr as long as we did, and deservedly won the fitrst half by a long way.

We showed a load of committment and desire, in the end we came up short of the class that Toronto have, but they are a half decent SL team already, and to lose to them was absolutely no disgrace.

It was good to see the substantial contingent from Toronto as well, I was rubbing my eyes at the centre stand being full!

You should have carried on viewing, you missed a couple of well worked Toronto tries in that time !

I really enjoyed the game today. It was a game worthy of Sky coverage and, to be totally honest, the scoreline and winning team just about refelected the game as a whole.
The difference in the two teams was that clearly their skill set is way above ours, but we matched them for sheer effort. A few of our guys put in some big minutes - Webster, Crossley, Wildie, Lilley, all played their hearts out.
Pity about a top 5 finish looking like a lost cause now, but in reality, 6th place is about the right position for us, if we can win our last games including turning over Sheffield

If you'd have offered me a 6th place finish at the start of this season, without any off field drama I'd have bitten your hand off!

It's a shame the second half of that statement appears to be unraveling
