| Well, firstly to say, what a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon out. We gave Dewsbury a ground record crowd, it was a great atmosphere, great weather- whats not to like?
As for the actual performance, well, as usual it was good in parts. There were parts where I thought we played really well, then we seemed to fall away. Credit to Dewsbury though, they muscled up, never gave in and really pushed us.
Honourable mentions today to Walshaw who I thought was our MoM - the way he keeps those long legs pumping always seems to gain an extra ten yards. Also though Halafihi showed up well, and there good stints from Addy and Pitts. Etu on the wing for mine from now on...
But we're still not really firing in the creative department. Seijka was a bit better today, but we're still relying too much on Gaskell and he can't slice through on every play now that the defences are targeting him. Fleming looks like he has been on the pies - needs to spend more time in the gym!
And what a big waste of space Karl Pryce is... Goes into the tackle and hits the ground faster than a sack of potatoes!

| I think too much goes through Gaskell. It's making us easy to read. The ball seems to follow him around too much as such we can be too predictable. The default position seems to give him the ball which is understandable but we need more to go through others. Siejka should be demanding the ball a bit more - he seems a bit low on confidence. Addy had a better game today so maybe he can distribute a bit more.
I thought we lived a bit dangerously at times today. Still, a win's a win.

| Ref OK today then ??. We must of had our usual ref at Leigh today because we won by quite a few points today against Workington. Its getting ridiculous having him every week now Sorry "Cokey" but i just had to mention the ref ....Refs don't get mentioned much on this board .

| Didn't manage to get to the game today (first one I've missed this season) sounds like we played how we have for the last few. Having said that, Jimmy has constantly rotated the squad, which is the right thing to do with such a long season. I think only Clough, Gaskell, O'brien and Pitts have played in all the games. I expect from late may/early June Jimmy will decide on his strongest side and run with that consistently (barring injuries)
If we're still playing bell we par then, then I'd be worried.
Having said all that we need to cut out the sloppiness and start performing better. We have two tough games coming up against Sheffield and London and if we play how we have recently, we will lose.
I also think we are massively missing Mullaney. He's been superb this year. He's just as important as Gaskell and O'brien.

We play Sheffield the week after Doncaster...
If I said our next two league games are London and Sheffield you may have had a point...

| Genuinely have no idea what point you're trying to make.
I was just pointing out potential tough fixtures we have coming up.
But looks like another match thread is going to be derailed by a Leigh fan...

| I agree with Bullmania that we need to improve for games vs Sheffield and London. We've got a bit sloppy in recent weeks. We've let soft tries in during the last few games and haven't really clicked in attack for anything longer than the odd 5 minute period.

Bloke near me was questioning how long it took him to do his daily postal round, based on the speed he ambled round the pitch. Must stop for a rest every few houses.

| Like most of the contributors on this thread i agree a win is a win and we are a long way off the crucial last 8's. But! i look at Bradfords squad and it should be playing better than it appears from reading the reports, something isnt clicking. I fully appreciate JL was a fantastic player and Bradford legend but is he a good coach?? Is KH a good assistant?? I dont believe they are getting the best out of the talent available.
