Interesting discussion this. I've been going to Odsal since mid sixties and only ever thought of Fax as main derby. Never Huddersfield or Leeds......The Leeds thing was a Sky invention. I would say that next in importance after Fax was probably Dewsbury. Nobody ever told me it had to be so and I've never questioned it. I presume it was passed on from somebody and I suspect the media had a part to play. I don't think we ever sat at the same table as Leeds.....They were rich.

not sure when uiasele's T&A columin is written in relation to 19 man squad being decided. But in todays T&A he reckons hes only on standby for tonights game in case Williams doesn't make it and ulugia is likely to be other wing. Seems like 19 man squad is taken a lot less seriously in championship if correct.

Been just as bad in super league

The weather might make the game a 'leveller' if it's raining in Bradford, like it is in Leigh. Can't see you guys losing at home in the championship though.......so I'll go for Bullls 30 Fax 12
Our game at Hunslet today, was still 6-6 with 20 minutes left !

Been raining most of the day - it's the same field for everyone, though.

Yeah...come on Fax !!!! (only messing)

Got to be prepared to roll our sleeves up and get through some work in the opening 20 and expect fax to come out fired up.

The last few games I think we've been poor and gone into games wanting to improve our points difference.

I think every club will have plenty of experience in the rain and cold. It's the dark that Fax may be scared of.

Well. The pitch will make fax feel at home. You know how Halifax has one of the top5 beaches in the UK? Bradford looks like it's pushing into the top10...

Getting totally outplayed so far.

Although the half time team talk seems to have fixed it. 24 unanswered points in 2nd half

What score are we on guys, getting differing reports on the score online and text
