I'm happy to keep Mr Hicks on this forum, keep talking to him and then he will stay here.

Enjoyed today, 'what's it like to see a crowd'. Well yes pretty good actually I'll be honest. Hopefully we get some more game time together over the next few years. Championship looks pretty big ask next year, but the fight is on and if you manage it fair play.

Balls to super league, who needs it.

Pleased for kitty was speaking to him last night. He is a better player than halafihi his distribution from acting half is better than most even super league hookers when I say that. Left or right always to hands. Glad he played well even at the expense of us

He upped the tempo of the game (which you and I have known he does for years!) and as you say distribution was spot on. Well taken try as well, showed his support play which has always been top notch! Agree with you, pleased to see him play well even at the expense of us haha!

Halafihi was so poor today. And I do worry that he's our back up to Joe Lumb! I wanted him to go well today too and prove he can be a solid back up. One of them needs to develop a running game though otherwise both will be predictable. That's what we lack without O'Brien, the runs from dummy half which put us on the front foot a lot.

When was that?

I'm not gloating about anything.
I just thought it was disrespectful to try and cancel the game because you wanted tougher opposition.
Thanks to all the fans that traveled which will have put money in both clubs pockets as it was a shared gate.
I hope we make the championship and you stay there but I said I thought it was a tough ask.
The reason I would like to see both. Lubs in the championship is bigger gates and better standard of rugby.
Good luck to both teams for the coming season.

That's a bit more like it...was you on the beer when you wrote yesterdays post??

Not at all I still think it's a tough ask to stay up.
I will watch your results with interest.

Too bloody right it's a tough ask. Have Keighley a decent chance of going up this year? We may pass you on the way down.

Forced to laugh at T&A, "Bulls must cut out errors", there goes that song again!

Championship 1 is also looking really competitive. I would reserve Toronto for first place and a few teams in the fight for the other spot.

We play toronto at home early on so we will see, if we keep momentum I see no reason we can't give them a close game. I suspect next year we have a greater chance of going up, unless bradford come down then we are probably scrapping for second spot again!

If Toronto prove Succesful and we manage to stay FT and in Championship, then it would mean another FT side in the Championship. In terms of quality levels does that mean the RFL are getting it right?

Would love to see a all FT Championship.

Bulls
KR
Toronto
Tolouse
London

Shame Sheffield couldn't make it count, and manage to stay FT.

Does anybody like the idea of reducing SL to 10 FT sides and having a Championship of 10 FT sides?

Competition levels I feel would be better.

It doesn't work. Not enough games. Ideally it needs two divisions of 16 but there isn't enough quality of players or backers with loadsa money.

Anybody know what the gate receipts were for the Keighley match (and how much of them Bulls got (after the VAT was put to one side ))?
