Lightning first half from the Bulls, 0-24 at half time.

Early prognosis for Waite-Pullan is that he’s got a serious knee injury and could be done for the year. Confirmed by JK on the Our Leagye broadcast.

Lacklustre second half. 2 points in the bag.

Re: Oldham (A) : Sun Mar 01, 2020 4:59 pm  

hmmm ... we scored off early errors from oldham and were put in a position camped on their line for push over trys. After my connections went all tits up, did we actually in the game make a clean break?

Re: Oldham (A) : Sun Mar 01, 2020 6:23 pm  

Well we got the 2 points. So frustrating we started so well. And looked like we would (and should) have put a big score on them. We just went completely away from our game plan and didn't adapt well to the constant penalties in the game.

Big improvement needed for Sheffield next week.

How did Cator and Jack Brown do?

Cator was superb. An all action type player who got through a ton of work.

Brown was quieter (we have a player called Ebon Scurr who is almost identical to him, short, stocky, socks down) so was hard to tell them apart to be honest.

PP , for what it’s worth , I don’t think the Bulls will be in the relegation battle , that will be between Haven Oldham, Fax ,and maybe Swinton, the Bulls are a decent team , you could possibly get as high as 6 th place ,and in guys like Joe Cator. From Hull you have a great little player,stay positive.

This might sound a bit negative but 3 of the 4 trys were barge overs plus some.magic from Pickers (barring that he had a shocker)
The.only times we managed to break them down with rugby was a terrible long ball to Brown in the first half and Matty Dawsons try being pulled back for a forward pass in the second half.

Im happy with the win just a bit frustrated and wanted to see a bit more attacking rugby when we had them on the ropes. Am i alone in thinking we had an opportunity to put some points on.
Defence looks pretty good tho. Thought we were really strong again.

As a side note, where was every one!?!?!?
Really, really poor following today.
Only just over the hil, a game we were expecting to win and we have that poor turn out? Massively disappointing.

When you put the game on Our League people are gonna stay at home and watch it rather than venture out.

Be interesting to see how many are there on Sunday for a 6:15pm kick off. I hope all this ourleague exposure is worth it in the long run.
