Quote: Roofaldo "No, I don't think that's true. Bradford's forwards dominated the game, just as they did against HKR. The problem is just that, we've a very dominant pack there's just nothing backing them up. Players 1-6 are average at best. If you only had 1 or 2 average players in the backline you might not notice as the other players may take up the slack. But when you've a halfback pair who couldn't create toast with a a slice of bread and grill, wingers who couldn't catch cold and a fullback who's mind wanders so far that it brings back souviners then that is a team in trouble'"

It's not all bad though, our homegrown winger is riding high in the SL try-scoring charts.

Oh.

But it's not just a game of forwards is it. Don't get me wrong, I understand why you're disappointed; you lost at home to Huddersfield for the first time in 40 years. But your backline is a big problem for you IMO. And this Huddersfield side has tonked Catalans, pushed Saints hard, and now turned Bradford over. I'd suggest that deserves a sliver of credit.

Red Amber and Black Fantasy Rugby League Champion 2012. By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013 Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too.

Indeed. Halley has more tries himself this season than our entire team have managed thus far.

What a joke.

(ok, I realise I am not entitled to an opinion cos I was not at the game but I assume it is ok to deal with facts? )

Where have the backs gone

That game was dire, it was there for the taking and we couldn't do it, I'm sure the excuse will come out we've had a week off. Enough is enough I want to see a change this isn't this week or this season, it was here and has been for a good while, time for a clean sweep me thinks

Some might say that such facts make the man who made such a decision look like a, erm, banana.

But I couldn't possibly comment.

Quote: Baron Greenback "What was the penalty count this evening?

No idea but seen as the fat scouse scum bag had us marching back 20 metres at the play the ball and the giants scored their first try after the fat scouser waved the tackle count (which was a disgracefully bad decision) the giants did pretty well out of the ref.

And do you think maybe Huddersfield are a better side than you give them credit for?

No they are awful to loose to a team that bad at home really is the end of Macnamara. I have pretty much been someone that has been classed as a big macca supporter but after tonight that is no more. He has to go. That was crap. The giants should not make the play offs they really are terrible. So to lose to a team that bad at home is simply unacceptable as the thread title aplies enough is enough.

Quote: Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza "Well I've argued on his side but to lose to a team that bad really I can't stick up for him any more.'"


Why don't you say it again I don't think we understand what you're trying to say!!
But it sure sounds like some very large sour grapes.
Think you need to cut back on the alcohol and get a good nights sleep, things won't look as bad in the morning and you might just realise that you were beaten by a good side.

Bradford gave us Hockney, Leeds gave us Moyles.:731.jpg



Quote: We had some disruptions throughout the game which threw us off track a bit but we needed to do a bit better to win it.

"Bradford coach Steve McNamara

Disappointing result. Defence seems to be OK, attack extremely blunt. Saints losing at home to Hull KR suggests that no side has a right to expect to win games like these any more.

Deacon and Jeffries are pants together. Newton and Godwin don't even make an aging Jimmy Lowes with a busted knee between them. We don't even have a Loose Forward. Why when we are 3 yards from the try line do we pass the ball 20 yards backwards to someone stood still? Lowes would have had someone over the try line every time with the Forwards we have. Menzies is too old to play 80 mins and we spend too much time moaning at the Referee. Oh and I forgot about Solo and Tupou, they must be laughing their socks off getting paid to do bugger all.
On the bright side Cook, Koppy, James, Scruton, Nero, Menzies, Morisson, Tadulala and Sheriffe played well. Burgess seemed to be a bit quiet.
Macca is making the squad worse week on week. We are playing far too deep, don't get a quick play of the ball and don't know how to slow the other team down. All this means the opposition get quick play of the ball while slowing us down while reading the ref better than we do.
What also scares me is that we have nobody ready to replace the aging dead wood and will probably end the season having to get rid of Menzies, Morro, Newton, Solo, Tupou, Deacon and Jeffries. May have missed someone out but can;t think who! Oh Macca if he hasn't gone by next week

Taxi for Macca.

We need a coach who commands respect ASAP. Either an Aussie or maybe Cullen? Nobody could be worse as we seem devoid of ideas.

Rant over but still very disappointed. Things can only get better!? Unless they get worse first!!!!

Well that was terrible, wasn't it? I have never seen such an uncommited bunch of individuals in the whole of my life watching rugby league. I have seen some cracking teams up at Odsal and some not so cracking teams. Most have generally given up an awful lot of effort. But I'm afraid the same can not be said for this team. Steve McNamara's time as head coach of the Bulls surley must be drawing close to an end. He just doesn't seem to be able to get things right, and when things are going badly he doesn't seem to know how to correct them. I know people said Noble's team didn't have a plan B, but what they did do was execute a Plan A to perfection, in 50% of the games I have seen since Steve McNamara was appointed head coach we seem not to even have a plan A or a game plan at all.

I hope we can start to bring things together but I am wary that we will hear a number of very similar things said by staff and players to the media and yet again we will still see the same inconsistent to poor performances that we have over the past 24 months. It's not good to be a pessimist but I fear that things will not improve unless there is a huge overhaul in coaching staff and coaching systems at Bradford Bulls.
