| It is easy for some to pick on Sykes but he was not the worst. Sykes is utter p!sh but he tried but he just ain't good enough.
Lets look at Briggs for example. What an absolute pile of garbage he is. Simply terrible player and completely out of his depth.
it ain't looking good at all.

Much better. I sky +'ed it and could fast forward.

You can't flog a dead donkey!
They won't get much done this week with the game coming sO soon on Thursday. Leeds may destroy us. Raynor and ainscough poor, Godwin must be laughing so hard at us right now!

| Can't defend that sort of performance.. simply not good enough in too many areas and Salford exploited it. Credit to Salford they played some good Rugby but some of the tackle attempts were so weak it was embarrassing. The ball handling and penalties at crucial times continue to happen and it is something that Potter needs to address.
We don't have a team full of superstars but collectively they're a million times better than they showed today. If we expect to make this years play offs then there will need to be some drastic improvements. We could do with a couple more classy players in certain areas but I just cannot see those gaps being filled this year.
Only positive I brought away from today was thank god Salford outbid us for Fat Feka.

| We were absolute e, but some on here are going way over the top.
It's painful watching a Bradford side play like that. But if we do play to our best 9which we haven't yet) and if the players play to their full potential then we will be alot better. McNamara left us in a mess (and no, I am not blaming him for todays loss like some others are!) and, even though the Bulls marketing suggests it, Potter doesn't have a magic wand. Building a decent side takes time, but I do think Potter is the man to do it. We're not far into the season - and Potter made it very clear in the press and at the fans forum that this side would need time, and patience from the fans. I know I'm still prepared to give him time.
And I wish people wouldn't slate Briggs so much. He was poor, but how can you write him off after only his second game in Super League?

Because he clearly is not good enough, that is why.

And you can tell that from 2 SL apps?
He's going to take time to get up to SL pace, so maybe at this moment in time he isn't good enough. There's certainly potential in him - he looked excellent in the championship (I know its a lot tougher in SL) and there were rumours that we weren't the only club sniffing around him. I trust Potter's judgement more than yours though (No offence, i'm not having a dig, its just he has already proved alot as a SL coach!)

You can criticise, I admit they were all $hite today.
Briggs was horrendous too - not denying that. But can you really write a player off after 2 SL appearances?

No doubt far cheaper too. And Koppy has improved a lot this year, one of the better forwards so far IMO. How you can use Burgess as an example is bizarre even by your standards, the guy has only played a handful of SL games.
