Genuinely have no idea what point you're trying to make.
I was just pointing out potential tough fixtures we have coming up.

But looks like another match thread is going to be derailed by a Leigh fan...

I agree with Bullmania that we need to improve for games vs Sheffield and London. We've got a bit sloppy in recent weeks. We've let soft tries in during the last few games and haven't really clicked in attack for anything longer than the odd 5 minute period.

Getting a bit sad now this "banter" I like too come on too read Bradford match report not people trying too wind each other up! See ferguson didn't play again? One hell of a player when fit but a right biscuit body!

What is the point of Karl Pryce?

Bloke near me was questioning how long it took him to do his daily postal round, based on the speed he ambled round the pitch. Must stop for a rest every few houses.

Like most of the contributors on this thread i agree a win is a win and we are a long way off the crucial last 8's. But! i look at Bradfords squad and it should be playing better than it appears from reading the reports, something isnt clicking. I fully appreciate JL was a fantastic player and Bradford legend but is he a good coach?? Is KH a good assistant?? I dont believe they are getting the best out of the talent available.

That's it, we need to sack the coach! Oh and sack the board!!

It's been a while since we had a "sack 'em all" thread. Things are going too well to have some stability, we should start sacking people immediately! Someone should start a "Lowes Out" thread without delay. I suppose it's a bit much to hope for another administration, where practically everybody gets instantly sacked, but we can dream

And you play London the week before Doncaster..Do you not take one match at a time at your club?

It's not your fault, but we are really Super League standard fans, just slumming it with you C fans for a while, and as such, we have these advanced brains that can actually multitask to thinking not only a couple of games into the future, but even talking about the playoffs, cup ties and all sorts. We can do this at the same time as thinking about what to have for tea, and whether we need a crap. I bet you're dead jealous!

Re: Dewsbury Away : Tue Apr 07, 2015 11:16 am  

Is it a case of a mindset I.e. When we play teams that pose a greater psychological threat, the team will have to move up a couple of gears and perform or get thumped. London (who are improving) Sheffield, both of who will be difficult away. Posting big scores seems to be the demand from fans, where there is little value in that thinking. We actually have had relatively minimal injury problems so that is a bonus.

Teams in Super League tend to come into their own just past halfway in the season. The same for us. I am not too worried right now.

Re: Dewsbury Away : Tue Apr 07, 2015 11:54 am  

There are some extremely negative opinions elsewhere on the interweb.

I would say that the team are where you'd like to see them in terms of league position and results.

They are where you'd expect a fairly new side to be in terms of performance and have improvement in them ahead of a (hopefully) attempt at promotion through the super 8's.

In my opinion.

I can't comment on anyone else as that's their look out and know enough about them.

Obviously teams raise their game a few levels when they meet us, probably more than they do than when they play Leigh. As far as the coaches are concerned it's stupidly early to make any kind of judgement. We've had 14 new players to integrate into the team including a new halfback and fullback. Of course it will take time to gel. We seem to be winning games without ever really cutting loose so I'm happy with where we are at the moment. I hope to see us looking more slick later in the season - when it matters.
