Oh well, still going over to Odslum, probably get wet through with the predicted rain but it'll be interesting to see how the youngsters get on.
No doubt some of the sky team who defend the like of Lids, Wigan etc doing this kind of thing will have something to say but **** em "Up yours Sky" Quite glad it's worked out like this, the lads should be all rested, fully fit and rarin to go for the Wigan/Lids game on Thursday.

Shud be a crap night tonight for the Sky cameras with 2 teams apparently playing to lose so they only have to visit little ol Huddersfield in the 1st round of the play offs

Good move from baloo I think! If this is a disgrace what was wigans team last week? We've won the league for the first time in 81 years and giving the lads a well earned rest before the real stuff starts so lighten up a bit and get behind the young uns! Good luck lads!

Spot on !!

Title edited. I hope everyone is happy now !

Its a great move by Baloo, winning the title a week early and giving him the option to maximise the chances of the Giants having a fully fit first team for the play off's.

I paid £20, not unhappy at all Saturday is about singing i the rain, win, lose or draw, we can proudly sing 'we are top of the league' in front of the Bradford fans, worth every penny

personally I think its a good move by baloo given that we have a far more important game 4 days later!
my only problem is that the young lads could be overawed and we get heavily beaten,thus deflating the entire squad,however I am more than confident that the team we play is more than capable of giving Bradford a decent run.

I wonder if sky will be banging on about our "kids" like they do with the likes of wigan leeds saints etc?

don't forget to all congregate together at the side and lets make lots of noise for the lads!

Looking forward to see how the future of our club shapes up. Some of those names are being predicted as superstars in the making.

Correct decision by Baloo - some players have barely missed a game all season and with the turn around we don't want to take any chances. On a different note, loved the write up in the Mirror about the Wigan-Rhino's gameWigan need only a draw to finish third and secure a visit to Warrington in the play-offs. Defeat and it's a daunting trip to champions Huddersfield.'"

Great decision by coach of the year, but....I'd have picked craig k , and asked him to kick off for us, do a jig of celebration, and then immediately substitute the trophy winning ex bulls captain.

I wouldn't worry about getting badly beaten, we are missing half a dozen first team players ourselves and look set to blood some juniors of our own. Add to that the fact that we were abysmal last week against the Broncos and you could very well see a Hudds victory on Saturday!
Like a few of you have mentioned, your whole team should be well fired up for this one, aiming to impress and force their way in to contention for the playoffs. Our guys will have one eye on their jollies - as they seem to have had for quite a few weeks now

I'm thinking a celebratory conga up and down odsal is an ABSOLUTE MUST.
