Interesting. I'd have said that of current injury list are first team. Olbison and o'brien are currently fringe players. Pryce and manase could be starters or fringe depending on how they apply themselves. I'd have thought all the other players potentially unavailable for Sunday ( l'estrange, diskin, Langley, Lulia, koppy, elima and whitehead) would feature in our strongest 17.

Regarding the predictions our new captains first job should be pinning these up on dressing room wall and using them for motivation.

My thoughts exactly. I keep wondering what it would be like if Sky Sports employed a professional broadcasting team to cover rugby league. Never mind.

I may be a tad optimistic but i'm expecting L'Estrange Diskin Langley and Koppy to be okay.

manese and pryce can't (yet) be classed as first team players.

Elima is obviously a big loss but we do have sufficient cover for the rest of the positions. We should be able to compete with the cats at least

Quote AaronBull="AaronBull"Right, I'd consider myself abit of an optimistic Bulls fan, and I'd agree with ME and others that the top 8 is perfectly attainable this year. But am I just too optimistic or is Angela Powers anti-Bradford? She's tipped us to finish bottom!! www.code13rugbyleague.com/2012/0 ... edictions/'" That has actually annoyed me. Lets hope the players see this and use it as inspiration.

Who is this bird ,is she a sutherner?What gives her the write to print this rubish ? So she got lucky last season with some pridictions. Its a disgrace exgreat players like Gary Schoefield cant get jobs with sky. she should stick to talking about babies changing.

chill out everybody, if she is as wrong with her prediction this year as she was last year for us (her wild card - 6th), we will be 3rd or 4th (and Cats will 9th or 10th). and oh dear Broncos, watch out as they are her wild card this year. What is curious is for the other teams she goes into detail about ins and outs and other relevant factors in her predictions, then says nothing at all about us such getting the half back we have needed plus more backs and it being Potters 2nd year, just waffle, so you wonder what research she did. rather you don't as it was clearly nothing.

My left @rse cheek knows more about rugby than her -_-

I think we should all send her a tweet asking her to explain this $hite !! LAST - dont talk soft. Woman, know your place

Sounds like a few people have

To be fair she's entitled to her view, let's be honest we're a bit biased and if the the team don't use this to do a "Kevin Sinfield" in proving her and others wrong then there's something not quite right.

Roll on the season where we can hopefully remind her of her prediction at the end of the season when we make the eight and win the challenge cup.

If you're going to send something in twitter keep it polite, lets not drag down the name of the club

I asked her on twitter to take on a £10 bet. If bulls finish in top 8, i win, otherwise she wins.

She was really polite actually, tweeted back and said, make it £1 and we're on......

So now the team better not let me down, i now have money on this season, lol.
