Jesus Christ. Please for the love of god don't waste Moss on the wing.

Our 17 will probably look something like this (excluding any loans/signings we make this week)

19. Johnny Campbell
2. Ethan Ryan
4. Ross Oakes
3. James Mendeika
5. Iliess Macani
6. Leon Pryce
7. Joe Keyes
8. Liam Kirk
9. Joe Lumb
17. Ross Peltier
11. Colton Roche
20. James Bentley
21. Brandan Wilkinson

26. Vila Halafihi
15. Jon Magrin
25. Keenan Tomlinson
14. Oscar Thomas

Yes. I am expecting a hammering haha! However we haven't assigned the 1, 10, 12, 13 or 16 shirts yet. So one would assume we have some signings in the pipeline. Maybe not in time for the game against you though.

I'm sorry but anything other than a convincing 40+ point victory against that 17 would be classed as a disappointment in my view. Man for man we are far, far to good. I just hope we have that ruthlessness that we had last time we were in this league, beating teams by 80+
Lets be honest, we owe Bradford a good pasting, they have given us a few over the last 10 or so years!

Re: Bradford 17 : Thu Feb 02, 2017 12:00 am  

Well considering 7 of those are 20 or younger (4 being 18-19). And a 21 year old halfback who will have to take some pressure off Pryce......I'd expect you to beat us heavily. I'd go with a 50-60 point pasting. However all us Bulls fans are looking for (majority have written this game off and rightly so) is a spirited performance, never give up and hopefully post a couple of tries. Even a heavy loss against a good KR side will do our youngsters the world of good. In my opinion no better team to introduce them to Championship rugby. They'll know then that no other team will be as tough.

Re: Bradford 17 : Thu Feb 02, 2017 7:52 am  

Wow just turn up and hammer them.....it ain't got to happen.
I expect the Bratfud squad to take their frustrations out on us.
It's only our first game under Sheens. We don't know whose fit.
I'll take a win of any type.
Looking forward to see Sheens' style of rugby. Looks more interesting than the formula stuff turned out by most British teams now.

Re: Bradford 17 : Thu Feb 02, 2017 1:13 pm  

sheens should be our best signing , he will make sure we are not complacent, although Bradford have just signed 4 leeds fringe players today I fully expect us to win this one with ease and plenty more along the way,, hopefully character, tactics, coaching and squad strength will click in when things are not going so well

Re: Bradford 17 : Thu Feb 02, 2017 2:29 pm  

Jordan Lilley signed on loan for one month along with three other Rhinos who I have not heard of. Guess he will face us on Sunday.
