We need to up our game tonight, Lino and Gale should be out to convince us they deserve a shirt.

Assuming they both play, wouldn't be overly surprised if Lawford got the nod over either to be honest.

I expect a lot of their play to go down the Gaskell, Gill, Taufua channels.

Appo was a player I was hoping we would sign this pre season.

Should be a good game. Time to roll the sleeves up.

Bulls have 24 start with a couple of bookies, didn't expect that many!

Arundel, now that's a blast from the past

Good half, need to clean up the mistakes though, two missed tackles led to the try the other nearly did. We've got this if we we keep concentration and cut out daft errors.

The Bradford twitter account is very salty.

Awful second half, very scrappy.

Could and should've been 60.

That's much more like it. Yes, we need to sort out the errors and yes we should have scored a few more in that second half but ateotd you can't turn your nose up at that score IMO.
It's got to be said Lino stepped up tonight with his try assists etc. It was an amazing atmosphere and turnout from everyone, great stuff.

Played pretty poor for 40/50% of that game and still won extremely easily. Griffiths is a terrible ref!

Bulls were constantly niggling and slowing that second half and the trinity players were just getting frustrated at how slow it was. The penalties and slowing play down really kept the score down for them that second half.

Overall though a good night.

Although I never heard the M.O.M given out (was it ??), I thought Lino was outstanding and looked a threat every time he got the ball. His performance tonight was on a par with the Warrington game last season, so hopefully he can continue that for the rest of the season

What a great opening night !

Massive crowd, stadium was rocking and didn’t even look like Belle Vue as we all know it
The fireworks and the soundtrack sending tingles down the spine of every supporter
A good solid win for the team with some stand out performances

Jowitt was superb throughout
Lino had his best game since tearing Warrington to shreds, credit to him for bouncing back.
The pack were on top almost all the match but for me Pitts was outstanding

Some tidying up to be done around our discipline but all in all what a great night
