I managed to see the game today, but am confused as to how Bradford got a penalty and Manning put on report, when from where I was it looked like Manning got forearm smashed in the chops. I look forward to hearing the views of fans that were closer.

I thought the ref got two forward passes wrong in the first half that we would more than likely have scored from as well as getting the wrong man for a late tackle which saw Manning put on report instead of Tangata. I also wonder about the same incident just how far can advantage be played, I thought it was just the same tackle but that incident seemed to go against that.

Going back to the Oldham game, Richard Marshall's decision to rest players and ease up in the 2nd half was totally justified given the Bradford result and performance. Well done RM.

Yes indeedy, good point. It also makes some who moaned about our second half performance, particularly him who said we would lose by 40 to Bulls a little daft.

Re: Today v Bulls : Thu Mar 31, 2016 8:49 am  

Yes, it looks like the other coaches have found RM out!!!!!!!!!

Re: Today v Bulls : Sat Apr 02, 2016 4:43 pm  

Bradford can,t complain really. The coach new they were in for a tough game hence he brought their previous match forward, allowing one days extra rest,the penalty count was 10 - 4 in their favour, and they got away with murder 3 head high shots in the first half alone and a deliberate stamping on Moore whilst he was on the ground by Gaskell, he should have been sin binned at least. And not one penalty given. The difference was a Halifax back three who tackled everything in site, oustanding defence. Some of Smeatons tackles, well glad i wasn,t on the receiving end and legal aswell. Our front row were making ground every touch of the ball. I was hard pressed to spot who was the fulltime team.
