[quote="BigTime":je60ye4k] I think that’s sensible, although absence of any wingers has to be a bit of a thing? If I recall we won the football World Cup with a team dubbed the wingless wonders. Is that a thing in Rugby League or have we just invented it?[/quote:je60ye4k] The Warrington Boys are winger & centre, so for 2 weeks we have 1 wing & if we flap enough we can go round in circles.

We may have the Warrington lads for a bit longer. You never know.

The forecast for tomorrow in Bradford is for snow. However Odsal does have its own micro climate, so it may be nice up there. Oh thinking about it, it is never nice up there is it..

[quote="BigTime":3qfukay0]Hope not DC. One man’s opinion but there’s no place for those kind of antics in the modern game. IIRC he turned out for the reserves a few times in said tights. I thought it looked like amateur hour. On the plus side he was quite sprightly.[/quote:3qfukay0] He may have hamstring issues. I believe some tights are compression based and can have a role in reducing hamstring problems.

[quote="Halfdan of t'wide embrace":12qi7cst]He may have hamstring issues. I believe some tights are compression based and can have a role in reducing hamstring problems.[/quote:12qi7cst] That's not too encouraging then.

[quote="Halfdan of t'wide embrace":1qjhu1g7]He may have hamstring issues. I believe some tights are compression based and can have a role in reducing hamstring problems.[/quote:1qjhu1g7] Yes I suspect it will be something like that. No one in their right mind would think it was OK without some medical reason.

Predictions? 30-10 loss I think.

[quote="the-bearded-lefty":2ncipyst]Predictions? 30-10 loss I think.[/quote:2ncipyst] Think it might be a tad bigger than that but as long as it's not on a par with Salford last night, I'll be reasonably happy. The first 2 games are about survival until we meet somebody we might be able to compete with.

Winning at HT! So, even if 2nd half is a disaster, we're happy?

Sounds like a spirited and well organised performance against a strong Bulls side. Suspect Bradford will still win but can’t argue with a 6-4 lead at the break.

Great first half

[quote="Returnwr to SEnder":1mf0m7qp]Great first half[/quote:1mf0m7qp] 2nd half not so good. Need to dig in now.

If we could nick a score now it would be anyone’s game- COYB!

Spoke too soon, Bradford in again . Oh well …..

Decent effort away from home against a strong side. Should give them some heart. Hopefully no serious knocks. Onwards.

Pleasantly surprised at that result. After watching the Bulls run through Classy Cas at will, I was afraid of a tonking.

Avoided what I thought would be a hammering, put some points on the board- and all against one of the sides the bookies have as favourites to top the table. Decent first half by all accounts, something to build on. COYB!

Your side looked really well drilled. The defence in particular was very good. Think you just tired as the game went on but you made us look ordinary in the first half. Thought the fullback was dangerous every time he got the ball. Also, never seen a 7ft tall scrum half before. Broncos fans made a lot of noise. Good turnout considering the distance and it was bloody freezing at Odsal.

Thought Cake's Sky interview was very, if you will excuse the pun, bullish. While next week will be tough too, things don't appear quite as bleak as they might. We do need of course some investment ASAP.
