The Bulls are a lowly "one man team" playing in the Championship. We don't stand a chance of beating you guys.

icon_lol.gif I presume you realise i was extracting the urine don't you? You know like you do in every post you put on here? Nobody believes you actually think the stuff you stick on here is true you know! And if you do seek medical help quickly before it's too late.

Anyway i think we'll win but it will be close. Bradford are decent but not great and i think we'll get over the top of them in the end.

Unless we pick Annakin that is then we'll probably get 50 put on us...... icon_wink.gif

Wow, are you like Bradford's PR guy in disguise?! icon_lol.gif They have lost 4 games out of 23, as far as I know only them and Leigh are full-time, not sure if London still are? They are a capable team no doubt about it, but I suppose the proof of the pudding and all that.....

Quote: Emley Cat "We have a habit of starting slow and not being ruthless enough when on top. Get these things right and I see no reason why we shouldn't win on Saturday. I saw enough on Sunday to suggest we're not far off a complete performance and Brian Smith said it was the best we'd played under him, I wouldn't disagree with that. What I would like to see is a continuation of the way we played 2nd half on Sunday which imo was miles better than 2 months ago.'"


Problem is though, we have put in a few similar performances to Sunday, Catalans away, which was quite a while ago now, think we went 16 down in that one, came back into the game, gets to the last 10, 15 minutes with a genuine chance of winning and bad decision making, wrong options cost us. McShane put in one of his ineffective kicks, they score from it and go onto win, Moore did the same on Sunday, bit of dejavu! I think under BS we obviously have improved, generally as a team we are more solid in defence, more resolute etc......but, we are still averaging around 32,34 points against us, which is obviously better than 42 under JW, but in order to actually win games on a regular basis, that has to come down to between 20 and 24. You are only gonna win now and again conceding that many, only one win against Super League opposition since February icon_rolleyes.gif mainly because of points against us.

This world was never meant for one as beautiful as me. WTRLC 2012 to 2014 "The wasted years" Magic Weekend "Whipping Boys" 2013, 2014 & 2015 2017 - The year the dream disappeared under Grix's right foot. 2018 - The FinniChezz Bromance 2019 - The return of the Prodigal Son. 2020 - Keeping the faith.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_2597.jpg



This as a classic set up for a Bulls game. Wakefield have been favourites in many of the recent clashes but have always come off second best. Ideal opportunity to cover the dismay by lumping a bit of cash on a straight win for the Bulls. Did the same last year but then lost my winnings when London failed to beat us.

Well I for one can take a positive from your post bellyache, at least you did not manage to create an opportunity to introduce your love child into your post.

This team should be picked vs Bradford.

1. L Smith (Solid, Can take high balls, Helps the forwards when tired and is a great goal kicker)
2. Riley (Has more pace than Owen, try scoring ability and willing to take drives in the our own half makes a fair few meter's, only problem is morale is down which leads to errors)
3. Lyne (Arundel shows nothing in attack, Lyne Holds more Pace and Strength)
4. Tupou
5. Johnstone (Feel that he holds more ability than Owen)
6. Miller (Been excellent since B Smith came to the club)
7. T Smith (Feel that he had the best game of his season against Salford feel like if we get behind him he can only improve i.e his kicking game and slowness at times)
8. Scruton (Has a big engine which means he can last a fair bit of time in a game, Strong Runner, Defence can lack sometimes but overall a good forward)
9. Moore (Played an average game, Needs to stop scooting when we are on momentum stops the quickness of the attack as another forward steps in the ruck)
10. Anderson (Same as Scruton really but needs to work his tackling game as he cant be getting pushed off by a winger)
11. Ashurst (Just a good second row who gives it all)
12. Molloy (Had a blinder last game defence and attack gives it 110% everytime!)
13. Washbrook (Gives it his all every game no matter what)

Bench (The players I have chosen on the bench are all players which can make an impact everytime they come on)

14. Godniet
15. Mullally
16. Lauitiuti
17. Simon

I'm not a massive Owen fan but he was right in front of me when he made the big tackle on BJB and I was very impressed.
He's done enough to make me think he should keep his place.
I understand the point about Johnstone. I like his attack but Smith seems to have gone off him after the Hull KR game so he clearly has some things to work on. We really need his speed though. I think I'd play him against Hull KR just to track Dixon.

If I had to drop a hooker to accommodate Godinet it would be Moore. He brings a lot to the defence in the middle but he makes some poor decisions too.
And Walker had a great game against Salford so I wouldn't drop him either. I think I'd leave Ali out for now. (much as I love him) and go with the more structured team.

well well well Mr Wayo

I have just seen Bradford getting 8 start. I agree with your comments, this has got to be the bet of the season

Only reason why I feel owen should miss this is because just to give him an extra week to get him fully ready I felt he was targeted alot by the opposition due to the time he has missed also I feel that Tupou's experience could help get Johnstone over easy.

I agree with what you are saying but Moore and Sio had lacklustre games for me there was far too much dummy half runs by our hookers which left us with slow play the balls due to forwards jumping in trying to get the ball way and some occasions it led to errors for example Scruton knocking on.

The final part I completely agree with.

Put simply, this is one of our most important games in years.
No place for a moaner and groaner. We need to give full support to the 17 selected and become the 18th man for the team.
Let's just get behind and bring them home with a wet sail and 2 valuable Middle 8 points.
UP THE TRIN.

This. Get as many down to the game as possible it's essential that it feels like a home game for Trinity! I've managed to get 7 down with tickets already booked and paid for. One extra supporter for every regular will make all the difference. k020.gif

I'm desperate for us to win this one it's almost worth more than just 2 points with it being one of only 3 home games.
