Struth. What was he messing about at. What did he expect the ref to do? Maybe he is trying to get suspended so he can get home quick?

Give the lads due, they played well, and looked really up for it! So good to see Dixon back at his best. You could see at the end of the game how much it meant to them and tweets after the game reflected that.

Perhaps they have been given an indication of what Rea said will be announced in days?

good win

Reports are saying it was a dour game - I thought it was terrific! We outplayed them from 1 to 17 and a 10 pont margin was the less we deserved.
Terrific game management from Jamie as always. Our left side attack through Matt Cook, Kieran and Mason really worked them over and allowed us to exploit gaps over on the right. We bombed some good opportunities and played low percentage in our own half when we didn't need to but for a team that hasn't won in ages it was a terrific performance.
We tried our hardest to lose the game at the end with Jamie's binning and then some soft penalties for ill discipline but we got the result we deserved.

Does Caton-Brown look like a SL standard centre? We do desperately need (at least) 1

Looks a strong runner and a good prospect. Have to say though that Harry Little's debut at Wakefield was top drawer too so the future looks bright.

Just back and a very good performance. We started really strong and should have had at least 2 scores in the first 20 minutes.

Seward was having a pop at Hicks over the Bradford second try. Olsi was being treated and Hicks had stopped play. He then restarted it whilst Olsi was still in back play and I think that is what Jamie was on about.

That thought occurred to me, as well. All round good day for me - us winning at Odsall and seeing the Crusaders win Championship One with a walk on the pitch afterwards and a natter to one of the club officials. They are VERY gung-ho about the re-organisation, he was thinking where the club could be in three years with it!

Credit where its due.

Luke Gale showing us what we're not missing....

In the bits of Radio Leeds commentary that I heard yesterday, the commentator (when he wasn't moaning about every forward pass / knock-on / offside decision that went against Bradford) kept referring to Kieran Dixon as a difficult man to stop.

OptaJonny on twitter agrees. Great performance from Kieran.

We played with an unusual inventiveness and were keen to chuck the ball around in all parts of the pitch. Unfortunately I don't we are good enough to get away with it - or at least not that well practised in this art. Still it worked a few times as the score showed.. Unfortunately heavy traffic on the M62 meant we missed the first 20+ minutes of the game (heard some commentary on radio Leeds) and outside the ground is almost silent - very weird. Met up with a old supporter - some may remember him from ages ago - Exile - who still lives in Leeds and follows the boys. We did seem to be able to get to the Bulls line but were a bit lost for ideas in the last 10 metres (heard that before?). Kafusi then drew in 5 defenders on a short run near the line which led to Howell having loads of space to go over the line untouched. 4-0 It was blowing a fair wind, even at pitch level and kicking wasn't that easy (it was pretty warm when we left London but I decided to go for long trousers and a fleece - really glad I did as it was pretty chilly t'up north. Caton-Brown nearly made the try line in a break just before the whistle but wasn't quite quick enough after a lovely pass from Soward. It was actually warmer at home in SE London at 11pm than 2 pm in Bradford). 2nd half was more of the same with London (and Bradford) making mistakes but with us looking more likely to break through. As usual Sammut was tricky and it was his run that eventually lead to the try - and a couple of penalties. Bradford mistakes let us get easily to the far end of the ground and in the distance we saw the tries.... The Caton-Brown try was on a free play which went on for ages - again made by passing the ball out of hand. As you can imagine the Soward interception (shades of Denis Moran) raised a cheer and started the Bull fans exodus. After the final whistle is was really good to see most of the players coming to our end, not just to applaud but to climb the inner fence to shake hands and talk to the fans who made the trip up there. They certainly looked 'over the moon' with the win. What to read into this, well they certainly played with more passion than of late, was this due to the British kids out there or did they know anything we don't? Rae did say we would know in the next 2 weeks (after the last home game) so this week is key. The youngsters have options but players like Cook have a family to feed and the uncertainty can't be helping, especially when many SL clubs have already made offers to players for next year, apart from Trinity I guess



Not sure if its a omen but...last time I was at Odsal was for the very last (at the time) London Broncos match , in the play offs!! Hope the same is not true of our visit this year.

Radio Leeds also read out a tweet Emma sent them and they wished us a safe journey back down the A1 (into the warmth of inner London)
