We play some mad rugby. At least 3 of our tries came from wrong options as daft as it sounds! Only try we really ‘created’ was Websters! Farrell ran down a blind alley (5 deenders, 2 attackers) and manger to power over. We didn’t create an overlap for Grant’s (man on man defence) but Grant managed to step inside. And Lilley’s was dumb last tackle play! But it all bloody came off! Haven’t seen a Bradford side play sich poor attacking rugby and still scoring so fair play.
Lot of sideways running with no straigtening up from the halves or the lead runners which inevitably ensures we run out of space or the defence just easily slides. We actually did straighten up once but Websters pass was knocked down by Barrow.
Too many offloads from Barrow for my liking. A more clinical team would have done more with that. I have to say we have some very thick fans on the terracing. When an opposition player is skirting across our line the best thing to do is hold the defensive line with no shooters yet fans are screaming for someone to shoot out (and leave a gap). Or we drop a ball and screaming at Kear for it? Madness. And screaming abuse at the ref (regardless of how poor) just gets you nowhere.
Anyway very very happy with 4 points over Easter. In my opinion we simply have to back this up at the weekend against Rochdale as we have a tough 3 games after that especially with the travel involved.
