Genuine question. Do Bradford fans really honestly believe that the team is still capable of beating anyone on it's day?

IMHO I feel Bradford are behind the likes of Cas, both Hulls and possibly even Harlequins these days.

The backs are not just average, they are poor.

Dont get me wrong though, I love watching a good Bradford team play Leeds. It is far more entertaining.

They tore a few holes in Cas yesterday, so what does that make their defence?

But they still lost. Its all about consistency. Tearing holes every odd game and still losing does not make them above average.

Can I just stress I am not on here to make trouble. I would love a good one point game with Bradford, some of the best games I have watched in Super League have been close Leeds-Bradford games.

I do feel at the moment though that Bradford are a mid table team.

Ok....

So by that rationale, a world class player, who destroyed the defence everytime he touched the ball, yet lost because he was in an average team, is a below average player?

Nonsense.

Some of our back are not as good as others. Some are quality. None of them are rubbish. Same in most teams I should guess.

But your packs are a unit just as much as your pack.

I never mentioned individual players.

One or two world class forwards and some very poor forwards would not be a good pack in my opinion.

Same for the backs.

course you have a chance. if our game v saints is anything last the last one we will be battered and bruised. i think this affected our slow start last friday.
i thought the dragons played some good stuff for 20 minutes. they looked good with ball in hand and solid in defence. once we hit our straps and got a couple of scores they fell to pieces however.
i suggest we get our big games over this weekend before we look to far ahead mind you

The beer in Arcadia must be stronger than I realised. It was a dreadful game, Cats were dire.

Catalan Wildcats.

I believe we can win this one. Nero will score a last gasp try and Mystic Eddie will reappear on the message board apologising to McBanana and proclaiming him the Bulls saviour

But first I fear a loss to the French.

..... What odds will we be? I'd reckon substantial underdogs on the handicap coupons.

Bearing all this in mind, I can only see one result. The stage is set for a great and memorable Bulls win, against all odds. I advise all Bulls fans to lump on, to make it even more memorable.

FA 1200 - William Hill 0

Did you all listen? I hope so!
