We're carrying a few knocks from last week, and still without some of our key players. The likes of Gale, Bateman and Purtel are still yet to feature this season, and Platt who picked up an injury against Hull in round 2 is still missing. However Bateman could make his first appearance this week following a couple of outings in the u20's and Foster is most likely to be back too. Hopefully with a longer turnaround this week as to the one we had after Huddersfield, we'll be feeling fresh and ready to go. Should be a good game with both teams scoring a fair few points already this season, and hopefully you can bring a good number over, see you sunday.

ive been banging on for 3 seasons about welham jumping out of the line leaving his winger exposed ans he is still doing it and as for mika lets just get rid lazy makes the same errors every game we wont miss his 2 5minute stints

Welham's defence out wide was laughable at times, a bit like Lovegroves down the middle, like you say experienced players who should be standing up and leading.

Burns created and did nothing to add to the performace along with Paterson, all in all our big name players failed to produce.

Of course he can. He can train them to improve line speed and tidy up the ruck, that cuts out penalties. He can install discipline so we don't dissent. He can do all this and more, but he won't.

So do you think Sandercock has changed his approach in how he trains them in this aspect since the Warrington game?

It was a disapointing result & as always I wait a day before comenting on the game. 1st point give Bradford credit for a good effort. Some of our players had an off day & got what they deserved but they are no worse than a lot of other sides. I have seen 5 games this weekend & off those two other teams Canberra & South Sydney were equaly as bad as Rovers unforced errors & high penalty counts against, Canberra got stuffed Souths scraped a win. I just think it is the nature of the modern game. I am not to worried I would stick with Sandercock let him do what he was brought in to do, that is put in place structures that will last & provide local players comming through our youth structure. We should take of our red tinted glasses & look at the rest of the game we are not that much diferent to a lot of other clubs.
