Have we had a game today?

Re: Vs Sheffield : Sun Sep 03, 2017 5:52 pm  

Good result from a very young side.

Think the minimal comments say everything at the moment. Really enjoyed listening today how Keyes sounded to have a hand in everything hope he signs on again for next year

I listened to BCB commentary today. They gave high praise to Keyes (and Aston in fact) even though they've been critical in the past. I tend to find although the commentary is quite raw at times, they're at least honest in their opinions, so if they say he had a good game, I believe it. Good to hear Bradford halves playing well for once, as they haven't for a long time.

The "other" commentary that is out there I believe had Mr. Gledhill and John Keyes providing the service. If I'm honest, as much as I'm sure he's a stand up bloke, I'd struggle to believe hearing that Joe had a good game from his own dad. That might be taking biased commentary to a whole new level. (I say might, as I didn't listen to it so couldn't say for sure, but it certainly doesn't scream impartial).

Didn't go but listened to snippets of commentary and fan views after the game. Sounds like Keyes and Aston were both good. Ryan cleaned up well at the back (something we have been lacking all season in my opinion) and Caro actually played well and took his 3 tries well!!

I know he's been poor this season but I would have considered trying to keep Caro anyway for next season. He knows how to score and personally I think he's a lot better than Macani. He is a big lump of wood though, so I dunno :/ I do however seem to be eating humble pie in regards to Halafihi though. He's been playing pretty decent in a position that is unfamiliar to him.

I saw one of Caro's tries on twitter last night. Sheffield's defending made ours look NRL standard

Re: Vs Sheffield : Mon Sep 04, 2017 8:37 am  

Someone mentioned that Keyes' dad said on the radio Joe has been offered a new contract for next year. I believe Caro is leaving.

Hoping many of the young players who played yesterday get offered new contracts. I think that was a really good win. A very young squad against a tough, big Sheffield side. No mater how bad Sheffield were, coming up against Yere, Lo, Mexico, is a tough ask when you're only 18 like Hodgson, Butterworth, Wilkinson etc. Hopefully it's the last time we see Mendeika & Cameron Smith, and we see plenty more of Wilkinson, Butterworth & Hodgson.

Hope to hear news of players signing up for 2018 soon. Until then I find it hard to kindle any enthusiasm for any of these remaining games as it could well be most players will be going to other clubs.

Re: Vs Sheffield : Mon Sep 04, 2017 8:56 am  

I listened to Gledhill, did anyone catch the bit before kick off? They seemed to be talking about other champs club chairmen asking the RFL for the Bulls to stay up.... I only caught a little bit of what was said but it seemed current..... anyone hear the whole discussion? They kept mentioning Rimmer as if it was him vs the Champs club chairmen....

If anyone heard it, could you let me (us) know what was said properly, I only caught the last bit.....
