Well at least we managed to halt the slow-start syndrome this week but it was replaced by a very weak middle part of the game.

We really need to start putting teams to bed.

As weak as a flies fart in the middle of the game. But to say that Bradford should of won that game is criminal. Leeds Rhinos are the champion side that can pull of wins like that. St Helens would of melted under this Bradford performance tonight because Saints only win when the opposition teams are playing rubbish.

The mods are taking their loss rather badly over on the Bull's site.

I've just had 2 posts of constructive and sympathetic advice deleted



I really enjoyed the game..... a proper derby match which we looked like running away with at one point.... a full 80 minute performance by the squad....and a big hand to both teams.

Only black spot for me was the abysmal standard of refereeing, which had the North Stand on their feet at times with his unbelievable decisions.

Good job Leeds have sucked twice this year then

Random thoughts.

I'd imagine that's another heavy caning in the penalty count although the boys have my sympathy tonight as bentham clearly refereed the ruck differently for both teams. Awful display by the man in the middle.

Scintillating start and I thought we were in for a cricket score before the lull. Immense performances from Peacock, Buderus, Kylie, Webb and Hall.

Superb piece of brilliance from Burrow to seal it.

Played some good rugby in patches when not giving away territory and possession (see above).

Great game to watch though. Sky made a real boo boo not showing this.

Thought Sam Burgess was terrible. Loose carries, turnovers and not much else. Still love to see him in our back row.

They're not using Scruton at all well. Stints too short.

Finally, thanks to CMR for introducing me to Kevin Walters. Had a great chat at half time about the game, his experiences in France and his times on his two Aussie tours over here. Great guy.

....oh and real classless effort from the Bulls fans, cheering Webb's injury. Those that did deserve the miserable season they're having.

Great game to watch - thought we had blown it when Deacon had the penalty shot when the score was 20 all. The run from Hall from the kick really kick started the revival.

Buderus - what a rugby brain his run for the second to last try was genius - we look so much a better a side when he plays the whole game.

Ali superb run in the lead up to the final try rounded off a great individual performance

Peacock - he is a freak his defence on Scruton in the first half was brutal Scruton did well to last 20 mins.

The last Bradford try - pure quality - a great move

Disappointed but nothing to really moan about.

Was suprised we actually got back into it and Deacon not making touch was the big change in the game.

Still loving Menzies in a Bulls shirt.

Menzies was sensational. was a privilege to see a master at work. is he really 35? i cant recall him leaving the field and what an example he is to many in our game. puts the likes of hock to shame

buderus was pure gold too. a run of games and getting used to SL and we are seeing why we paid the dosh! shame on the boo boys who got on his back earlier in the season where he was blamed for everything from the recession to the lack of quality beer in the south stand

Super game to watch.
Peacock that man is a machine.
Burdarus is on a different planet to Diskin at nine.
Kylie once again hit hard in defence.
The catch on the full from Webb was worth the admission fee as a whole.
I thought we were a little hasty with the drop goal attempts.


Sam Burgess looked a shadow of his former self.
I'm sure he'd be a far better player in the sec-row for Leeds.
