Quote: Bulls Boy 2011 "Bit different then though! We had 4 different types of propVagana[/i - big trundler, took 3-4 to get him down causing defenses to reshuffle.
[iFielden[/i - punched holes in defenses, athletic, strong with a decent offload.
[iMcDermott[/i - metre maker, enforcer, always won the collision.
[iAnderson[/i - big impact player, came on and did damage allowing Fielden/McDermott space when they came back on.
Plus back then defenses weren't as fit or as quick as they are now. It was more open. Even Championship games are more structured now than the Super League days of 1996-2005.
Now it's not enough to just have a big pack. Michael McGuire showed that when he came and coached Wigan. Noble was a genius in his day but you can't use the same tactics now as we did! Hope Hull learn that quick as I like to see them do well!'"
I agree with you regards the Bradford pack but disagree in your view that it isn't possible to run over teams these days like the Bulls did back then.Souths did it recently using the Burgess clan. The key is having the right players in place like the Bulls did back then.They didn't just have that 'Awesome foursome' up front but also some huge outside backs to compliment them. And not trying to disrespect Hull here as i think they are a good team in their own right, but they don't really have the same Quality as that bulls team had right through the squad so they will find it harder to blitz teams. I still think they will have some success though and be in the mix despite last night.
