| A very good win today, I was worried prior to kick off because the Bulls are a good team who would have gone above us if they had won today.
I felt our defence was close to where we want it to be & our attack good. We did drop the ball a bit early in the 2nd half & struggled to complete a set or get our of our own half, this was largely due to the poor conditions & heavy rain. Ben Currie got MOM & he was very good but I thought he was bettered by Ratch & Myler who were both excellent.
Trent & Super Ben did 80 & 77 minutes respectively

Waterhouse and Higham were best for me followed by Myler and both wingers, who finished superbly and were really secure in difficult conditions.

| I also thought Myler was good today. Some creative runs and important interceptions. His kicking was exceptional today. Trent was very busy in defence & attack. Mickey H was industrious as he has been all season. Benny Westwood is not upto his past performances likewise for Atkins for me. Still, I wouldn't swap either of them.
This was a good performance today against a decent"ish" side.

| Terrible, dour game. You just had the extra bit of quality and class.
Westwood was lucky he didn't get sent off. His high shot under his own sticks in the first half was very deliberate.

Are my eyes playing games with me here? Saddened posting without a mention of "Wellens being past it"? Bet he thought Wilkin was playing for Warrington when Ratch put that kick in that came back down on his head.

| I thought it was an entertaining game although the conditions did lend themselves to a bit of dropsy at times.
Thought Mickey Higham was outstanding, looked very lively as he has done all season to be fair. Ratch and Myler and Trent were excellent. What we pleased me the most was our defence and enthusiasm which has not been evident in a number of games this year. To keep the Bulls to 4 was a great effort
If Hodgey had put his boots on the right feet we would have hit 40
Good to see a couple more youngsters blooded, both acquitted themselves well as did Evans for the Bulls. Looks like we are finally waking from our winter hibernation.

Prior to the game I thought it would be a close tough game. It turned out to be a comfortable tough game. Bradford are no world beaters but they are a big strong physical side. With regards to the game being Awful could you expand on that? I thought there were some flashes of brilliance from Myler. Some good runs from Mickey Higham and Ben Currie & Trent Waterhouse played well in attack & defence. Joel took his try well in the corner and to only concede 4 points when we gifted a bit too much possession away was satisfying. As for Awful? I'm not sure.

Were you doing the Poz and facing the wrong way?
Are you Bobby Analogue in disguise?

| Come on people back on track please. The game was crap crying out for a player with the skill of Barry Peters from the good old days in front of the inferno of atmosphere that was Wilderspool Stadium packed to the rafters with 4,200 every week.

| I enjoyed today's game, perhaps I am easily pleased I don't know. But I paid £19 and watched a good game of RL where both sets of players gave 100% and tried to the end. I have seen better games and I have seen worse, but as I have said I enjoyed the game and glad I went.
As for the Sad Ones comments about it being a dour game, don't listen to him he is just peeved because his arch enemy Paul Wellens is playing well and pi**ing the Sad One off.

| Given we were still a few key players down, good performance and good win.
Currie excellent, Higham very lively and incisive, Waterhouse also impressive and his pass out of the tackle for Atkins try was a peach, but I thought Ratchford looked the classiest player on view by some distance.
