| Good effort from bulls. Wires were quite poor we will have to play a lot better against leeds next week.

| Quote: bigchris "He should have done better on three of our tries and I certainly wouldn't say he was his 'usual self'. In fact he looked tired and not himself, wish we could give him a week off as he deserves a break. He knew he had a bad game, he didn't even come over to the fans like he does every game.'"
If you're talking about Menzies, he didn't go to the crowd because he was lined up by Sky for an interview. He did wave to the fans after that, but there wouldn't have been that many left to wave at to be honest.

| Didn't see the game, but lots of positive comments on here is cheering. Let's hope we can begin to start playing with a bit of pride and passion again.

| And the fact there is Wire fans on here saying they didn't play well is a sure fire way of knowing that we did!

| Quote: Bully_Boxer "One incident not being mentioned is the Wire 1st try when Menzies was obstructed. It was interesting call by Bentham, are we now saying you can be obstructed as long if you don't fall over or make an attempt to tackle?
I reckon if Menzies had fallen over or stopped and thrown his hands in the air the try would have been instantly disallowed by the video ref.'"
I only got round to watching the video yesterday but yes, that was an outrage. It was a blatant obstruction, he cut Menzies off, and menzies was the tackler. Inexplicable decision.
They also want to have a look at the second Higham try. Plunging over from acting half is one thing, a la Lowes or Cunningham, but on that one, he went left, then checked and came back right, around the man playing the ball, using him as a shield. If he hadn't gone the other way first, I would have no problem with it but seemed like a definite case of using the man to me. TBF I am not saying it led to the try as I don't think we would have stopped him as we weren't properly set. But as I understand it, as soon as you run round the back of your own man an obstruction is deemed, whether the defenders would have got you or not. I don't see why different rules should apply on the line.

| Got out of bed this morning and I was 3 inches taller, ain't being a Bulls supporter great!!!!
It may be a year or two before we get there but we have the makings of a great side of young talent mixed with some decent minders among the senior ranks.
The rest of Superleague should make the most of their short time left in the "limelight" ~ the Bulls are heading for a rampage!!!!
The supporters also deserve some credit for their performance on Saturday, they really backed the boys and you could see it meant a lot to the players at the end when they got a fantastic standing ovation for their efforts.

The kids will come good just like Burrow Sinfield Smith McGuire at Leeds have all done.
The next three years will be amazing as we watch a 100% British side take shape.

Probably won't ever be 100% British. We've lots of good forwards coming through but fewer backs.
Every team needs a sprinkling of imports to provide the extra dimension.

| I think that after Smith's defection to the anti-Bulls refereeing tendency Mick is going to focus his obsession on teams with more overseas players than Bulls.

video review panel obviously werent too concerned about the incident either as they haven't called him in.
