So. What's everyone's thoughts on this. Think the majority expecting a loss. No HBs. Fax in great form and will be smarting after losing to us earlier in the season.

I really hope we don't risk Lilley. We won't win anything from this game. Maybe 3rd will just becoming out of reach for us with a defeat. But Lilley doing more longer term damage could absolutely wreck our season. As Brian Noble said, the most important thing is getting all your troops fit and ready for the end of the season.

We've seen what we look like with no half backs and it's bloody awful. Sadly I can't see how we'd beat Fax with them all missing.

Just have Mr Grant as ref and you've cracked it.

For the five drives and 'caught in possession' connoisseurs, I think this is going to be a classic... surely we'll bore 'fax to sleep and then sneak the victory whilst they're comatose....

Bulls squad release delayed. Wonder if we have some loan players coming in.

Jordan Baldwinson one 1 week deal.

Strange. He's been playing reguarly for York. How committed is he really going to be? Not saying he's going to t0$$ it off in the game, but how can he truly be motivated for this game.

Would rather have seen Ho. I hope we don't start panicking with endless streams of 1 week loan players which could just disrupt the whole squad.

No Evans or Fleming so clearly he fells we need extra strength up front

I haven’t been watching closely but he must have fallen down in pecking order at York. They aren’t doing us a favour for a week by loaning him, something must have happened

Perhaps he has secret ambitions to play in the halves

Brad Ho is currently not available due to injury.
