On paper i would agree but Platt seems to have been very solid and had good raps so far this season. Maybe i was letting Leroys No Try negatively influence me.]
I rate Langley very highly however O'Donnell is a superior player and not returning from injury.'"
Again i would probably agree]

both of them seem to be getting better. maybe they are feeding off each other and becoming a dynamic duo. feel that we will be seeing a lot more of them this year

As it warms up we will get the best out of them. Once Fa'alogo shaved his head last year, he was away.

| The Giants pack beats the Bulls pack hands down on paper but games arnt won on paper, how any one can put Langley in the same bracket as Odonnell is not thinking straight,its about who turns up on the day trust me.

| That's it. It was proven against Cas that if we don't turn up expecting it to be tough then we can and will get turned over.
We need to be fully focussed. A couple of seasons ago the Bulls beat us at our place and they were playing pap at the time.

Like Dan suggests - to be there or thereabouts at this level you cant have weeks off ! If the opponents are better on the day -that`s sport! But consistency in performanc IS the key !

But you cannot lay with that intensity week in week out. It is a long season.
I would be happy finshing 8th as long as we win the next 5 games after that.
Despite that there are certain games i look forward to for a variety of reasons,
Beating the Bulls, Beating wakefield just for the Local bragging rights, winning at Headingley just for once , winning at Wigan ( there is nothing like the sound of silence at the DW), Winning at HKR is nice feeling as well.
In reality winning our home games is the important thing as that is what puts bums back on the seats.
The one advantage of losing at Cas is that anytime Nathan wants to get the team up for it and to ensure there is no complacency he can always play that game again and that will be a wake up call.

[iYeah - I cannot argue - it IS difficult
But you surely have to aim for it --and have the fewest "blips" DG to go top of the pile [/i

[i Cant argue with that either (with a successful cup run thrown in - would be the icing!)--but not greedy!

| I wasn't overly impressed with either LOD or Faalogo in the first three games - I think I was expecting them to be tearing up trees from day one!!
However, against Quins I thought they were awesome. Hopefully they have now shaken their rust off - if they have, I can see our back-row being the best in the league come the end of the season (and that is what counts!)

| Quote: Roofaldo "And you're being churlish.
Bradford had 3 problems in the last 3 years. Falling crowds, a poor team and a poor coach. All 3 problems have been addressed.
Despite the blinkered views of some on here, this is not going to be an easy game for either side. Can't see it being more than 1 or 2 scores in it.'"
You are correct in this statement and things will either turn around or not for you. Despite being rivals I never wish ill of another club because THERE BY THE GRACE OF GOD WE ARE NOT. Whilst being a rival club and never wanting to wish you well your club has to try something to improve the decline showed in recent years.
The game I believe will be the first this year where we truely click and give a good account of ourselves. Our forwards are looking particularly good again this year and when are backs are working as a unit we will be a force.
It should be a good test on Sunday and I am really looking forward to it

Like I mentioned above, as it warms up so will these guys. O'Donnell is interviewed in the Examiner today and he states that Castleford was the heaviest pitch he has ever played on. Bear in mind that that includes junior level where you usually get the rubbish pitches!
In a few weeks these guys will be off! It was the same for Fuey and Fa'alogo last year.

| There is one thing for definite. This game will be seen as a 'must win' for both teams, it will be a massive fight on the field and will be one of the games of the season.
