It was Danny Williams that got the winner for us at Batley wasn't it?

It was Williams, yeah. Grubbered to the corner, collected it himself if I remember correctly.

Think Williams scored the try that took us in front and Ulugia scored on last second to confirm win.

Game of the round for me this one.
Having seen the bulls first hand last week then i fancy Batley to win by a couple of scores

More nervous about this one than I was the Leigh game... As suggested I think this will come down to who turns up with the right attitude. Kear has a habit of getting his players up for big games, something a lot of us have questioned about Jimmy!

I'd certainly have Jonny Walker in it, and probably Mitch Clark too. Clark doesn't seem the dirty type, but he is in the "get stuck in, work as hard as you can" mould. If we could get 3 Mitch Clarks out there this weekend, I'd be happy.

Fleming and Lauaki don't fall into any category for me.

I'd go with Clark & Walker starting, with Lovegrove and Crossley off the bench. Unless Clough is fit, at which point he takes Walker's start with Jonny replacing Crossley on the bench.

So according to today's t&a, Ulugia is still a bulls player and is only on a season long loan at Batley? That's news to me, I thought he had left on a permanent deal.
Not only that, but it's a loan which we cannot recall him from and he is also eligible to play against his parent club! Which numpty signed off on that deal?!

Watch him have a stormer against us

Ulugia is only technically still a bulls player. We agreed his release and batley were all set to sign him on a permanent deal, but they couldn't get him a visa. By staying on his bulls contract but on a season long loan the visa he obtained for us stays active for this season. Batley pay all his wage and he counts on their overseas quota

Chris Ulugia was declined a visa to play at Batley. Only way round this was for Bulls to loan him out.

I've a lot of time for JK, he's got a bit of the Peter Fox about him, imo, in that he knows how to get players to play 'above themselves'. Not that you can do that all through a season, of course, but he knows how to pick games too....

I wonder if Ainscough should be practicing fielding kicks all day ...

I hope he's not kicking for touch..........
