Well with Bateman out for 3 games time for Tom Olbison to step up to the plate and put some pressure on that 2nd row spot he has 3 games to prove his point hope he can step up only good for the club

my prediction, Tom Burgess to sneeze on Gower with INTENT and get a 5 game ban!

Don't be so stupid.

You need to fart in the scrum or blow your nose before the tackle is complete (and be a Bull, obviously) to get 5.

With intent will be way more than 5.
Let's hope its an unintentional sneeze or we are doomed.

Just some information for Sunday:

The closest tube station is Leyton, on the Central line which is about a Ten - Fifteen minute walk from the ground so please leave ample amounts of time.

Also please note that the Victoria line is down, as are parts of the overground and the train services into Waterloo.

Safe journey everyone.

Down where?
Dahn Sarf?

Reports Kear could be back this weekend and BK still out. Would be good to see what Kear can do at F/B becuase thats one of his natural postions.

Adrian Purtell also likely to miss this one.

Adam O'Brien should be back to near match fitness for the trip to Salford.

Next week really does come in handy. Four Point game of epic proportions is the Salford game.

Massive boost to have Kear back. Shame Purtell is injured, but was he named in the squad last week? I thought he was out, but played.

Kear
Ainscough
Walker
Lulia
Pryce
BJ
Gale
Hargreaves
Diskin
Koppy
Elima
Whitehead
Langley

Burgess
Nas
Addy
Heath

Edit, is Walker fit?

Just move Whitehead to centre and put Olbison in 2nd row. Walker shouldn't be getting in ahead of our youngsters.

Maybe not, but I don't like seeing EW at centre, his defence is a bit suspect.

Looking forward to this trip on sunday... got a good friend driving us all down so appreciation has to go to him!



Lets hope we see more from Gale with his comeback against Warrington looking so good... could be a game changer and give us a different attacking element!

Just doing commentary notes, worryingly we've only scored 41 tries this year which equates to being 11th in Super League.

London even surpass us with a mediocre tally of just 47 (9th overall).

The positive however is the new found defensive efforts. We amazingly have a bottom Four attack but an top Six defence (based on evidence of our games against those above us).

Obviously the lack of scoring prowess is attributable to the injuries to key positions - Three Quarter Line & Halves.

All leading in the direction that IF we somehow could be allowed to settle down as a side (no injuries or Red Hall suspensions) we really could be top Six and cement ourselves comfortably in the playoffs.


When compiling the stats for both London & Bradford, the Bulls clinically excell and have far more superiority around the play the ball - both in attack and defence.

In this instance it's actually nearly double the dominance, but will this transpire on Sunday at Brisbane Road?

Some of the statistics have us second behind only Warrington. Certainly our effectiveness around Dummy Half is the key with two influential pivotals in Heath & Matt.

Which hopefully Robert Hicks (we've yet to lose under his guidance) and his team of officials will spot - the Broncos best attempts to hold and lay on in the tackle.

The last thing we want to witness is an absolutely slug fest down the middle with both sides guilty of killing the expansive stuff.

Does anybody know if the game will broadcasted on any radio station got a few friends who cant make the trip and just asked

Thanks
