Needs a strong ref today who won't stand any Oldham nonsense, and is experienced enough not to be "old manned" by what will be a likely last gasp fist fight by Oldham. I reckon we SHOULD win this easily, but won't take off the waterproof undies till the whistle goes for F.T !

Best half we've played all season. Same again second half!

Not sure I agree with that. We looked pretty average until Peltier and Flanagan came on.

So....Workington next week then.

3rd time lucky....?

Excellent.In the context of importance of that game,best performance of the season.Completed sets early on and set a platform for the rest of the game.Very happy.

Best performance of season. Kear got his selection spot on (except if Bustin was fit he should have been in for Kirk). Minchella superb, his pass to Gibson for his try was top drawer. Chizzys' game management was good and Keyes looks a yard faster lately when he does his show and go. Peltier very powerful as usual and Flanagan put more zip into our go forward when he came on. Workington next week and we deffo owe Pryce one. Onwards and upwards.

The most... composed.... performance of the year, barring Peltz's brainfart at the end. Let hope when Pryce's lot start their grubby tactics we can remain as calm.

Though the ref had a good game too, didn't really notice him until 60 mins

Well done and congratulations to the Bulls
One of the best all round team games from the Bulls this season for me. Defence awesome, completion of sets in the main very good, a lack of unforced errors, some good backing up and support play, and we nilled Oldham on top just to complete the afternoon.
Now we need to replicate all that next week against Leon's grubby team tactics. Hope the ref is a really top official, and is conscious of the tactics Workington can adopt.

What a performance! Are we about to hit a good spot of form at the right time of the year?

I felt that Flanagan and Peltier were the game changers during the first 40 mins. Our intensity stepped up another level and Oldham were blown away. Minchella and Keyes also looked very dangerous going forward.

Great composure and some excellent play (Hitchcox & Gibson’s scores). If we play like we did today we should be fine next week.

Very solid 1st half and then turned on the style in the 2nd half. Thought our defence was excellent and Oldham never looked like they would break us down. Some of our last tackle plays were a little strange at times but I'm being overly critical I think.

Good day, although I expected the scoreline to be closer and I forgot how cold Odsal can be when the wind is whipping around!

First hurdle jumped, now need another performance next week to avoid a scrap with Swinton for promotion.

Great 2nd half.

As others have said, Pelts and Flanagan made a real impact.

Chissy was outstanding in the 2nd half. 40/20, perfect kick to Hitchcox and the long looping pass to Ryan to top it all off.

Top class today, Chisholm on top of his game and that pass to Ryan superb. Whilst not ripping up trees I thought that was Kirk's best performance for the club, ran hard, no errors that I can recall and defense spot on. Tough tough game next week that I for one will doing everything I can to get to.

Oh and I remembered I had been to Odsal this season, coincidently versus Oldham on the Friday night game!

What was attendance?

Best performance of the season. Yes we turned on the style in the second half, but for me the game was arguably won in the first. We played smart and worked hard. Set for set, no silly errors, no let up in intensity and that allowed the gaps to appear later on. It's what we've lacked all season. We play like that next week. We win.

Shout out to Jack Smith as well. Referees get bagged but i thought that was a fine performance. When the Oldham winger threw the ball away after our 40/20, how many times have we seen the referee stop the clock, allow the offending team to set their line while he has a word. Great officiating to whip out the yellow. If we have as strong a ref for the final, Worky will struggle as they won't have a weak referee allowing them to do it time and time again. A lot of the refs who we've seen "old-manned" by certain teams should watch Smith's performance today.
