Diabolical. Half the players looked like they couldn't be d. Looking at the squad we have on paper, we are not that bad, so what's the explanation?

I am beginning to have my suspicions now....

Can't be d to look at all the posts but will assume its all the usual breast beating and angst!
Ist half the ref and line were in Stains favour and the Bulls let it get to them
2nd half we came and tried for 5 mins then dropped our heads again!

As we are officially bottom of the pile the only way is up, and up it will be, whether it starts to happen on Fri against a Cas side that lost to Wire" will remain to be seen!

A decent Stains side of old would have put 60-80 points on the board today against the way the Bulls played so they've got their own problems as
well!

We,ve all been here and seen that and should by now have got the T shirt!

Twill be a season of more rubbish and bollox not only the field but on the forums as well!

The problem is with Bradford is that your squad on paper does not look good imo. Your signings have been poor once again despite what your own fans think. I have been slated for saying you will not make the 8 again and having watched your first 2 games. My prediction is looking sweet!

Your Australian signings are not good eough imo, especially Kearney and L Estrange. The worrying thing is that if you pick up a couple of injurys, you really will be swimming up the wrong stream.

However, i really do hope you turn it around. I have loads of respect for you club. I loved the Bulls - Saints rivalry (robably because we always got one over you in the finals).

Good luck.

How much have you actually seen of these two?

Go post your opinions on the Saints board, we want to criticize our own players so leave us to it.

I don't think Mystic Eddie is one to say "I told you so.." but...

It's getting harder and harder to disagree with mystic eddie these days.....



....what am I saying?

Our major problem is that the squad is just too lightweight. We must have easily the smallest team in SL. Kearney, L'Estrange and Hall may be decent players but they're all small for their position and have made an already small squad even smaller.

We have very little go forward and struggled to hold Saints and Giants bigger players. When we do make the tackles our opponents are able to offload fairly easily. It also doesnt help that not many of our players are feisty aggresive types that play above their weight.

We might improve when the grounds get faster but we're always going to lose out in an arm wrestle.

The depressing thing is that although there is clear room for improvement, not many of our players are going to grow 3 or 4 inches and put on a couple of stones of muscle over the course of this season.

IMO we are soft.

What a poor game and Bulls performance with no sign of were the improvement is going to gome from. God help us

The skill level of the players is pathetic and it doesn't go unnoticed that when the chips are down so are the players heads. The crowd at certain stages today where laughing it was that bad. How on earth is the coach not being held accountable for the rugby we've witnessed over the last three seasons. Going to Odsal is now a thoroughly miserable experience.

Asgardian13 please do not measure peoples level of support / passion for the club / intesity by the number of posts they 'achieve'. I may not post but I read (and vote) a lot!!

A bit harsh Ewwen. He was merely posting an opinion.

And, to be fair, he is probably right, certainly on Le'Strange. OK, I did not see him today but the general consensus on here today is that no-one played much good, but he was bloody useless last week so, up till now, I guess he is spot on.

IMO, L'estrange was just about average before we signed him and he's certainly living up to that tag IMO.
