1st try was lucky. Next 2 were poor defence. Sub standard performance.Only a few players can hold their heads up today. Not end of the season by any means. Come on support the team.

On another note surely their must be players in the amateur leagues that could do job given the correct coaching.

No surprise there. Played 8, won 8 against Toulouse.

The forwards played really well. Backs - room for improvement.

Who else is a unhappy parent ?.
To be honest though is just how it is, I get tetchy when watching the young lad play and they rotate the forwards. You want your son to get as much limelight as possible so I can understand the frustrations.

As a Bulls supporter I would say that our 12 deduction will be q big ask for us to make up (don't want to go into the rights or wrongs, just that it is a fact). If you look at the table and think that you are already 6 games up on us so you only after finish in front of one other team. It's a bit like the joke about the man putting on training shoes when him and a mate were cornered by a lion. He didn't have to outrun the lion, he only had to outrun his mate.

That's making an assumption that we'll get within 6 wins of you this season.

Re: Long season ahead : Mon Feb 13, 2017 3:40 pm  

You will. Despite your underwhelming recruitment you'll get 6 wins no problem.

Same story when we come up against teams like Batley we are outmuscled in the forwards. Same story last season we was bullied in the forwards. Rowe Brown Manning Maher on the back of a good kicking game from Walker and Brambani. Simple but effective. Batley controlled the game and we was never in that game. Disappointing. Sometimes you need to win ugly which isn't something we are good at.
