Says on twitter that Gaskell and Mullaney definitely out. Addy will partner Either Purtell/Mendieka or possibly Siejka

No point risking them for whats now a nothing game in terms of the league, Mendeika and Addy will give some zip whereas Seijka wont really give us much.

No idea of squad sooo.....

Shaw
Etu
Blythe
Purtell
Williams
Mendeika
Addy
Clough
O'Brien
Sidlow
Ferguson
Walshaw
Pitts

Crossley
Lauaki
Halafahi
Fleming

If Siejka is fit then he should play and he ought to know his place in the mid 8's is up for grabs.

I'd play any who are fit, we need to get some cohesion before the eights.

Hopefully Sundays game will be a Classic ,it's a shame Bradford will be without a couple of players and Leigh have in all but name won the League,still I like Leigh's approach and style ,fast open Rugby, a thing Messrs Lowes and Harrison know nowt about,it's a pity I will be at the Keepmoat on Sunday , I would love to PARTY with the Leythers,should be a good atmosphere.

Well, hopefully one of the players we're attempting to sign will be a half back who knows what he's doing and if so, you'd hope that might light a fire under Siejka's backside and knock into his head that he's in the last chance saloon, not just at Bradford but for RL in general.

He certainly owes us at least 1 performance, let's see if it's sunday

I would have thought the party at The Shay will be a massive consolation for you .....With the massive achievement by Fax this year surely it will be a very big crowd including a few from Fax.

Squad is out:

Henry, AoB, Sidlow, Purtell, Walker, Fleming, Addy, Williams, Lauaki, Mendeika, Pitts, Walshaw, Blythe, Caro, Clough, Shaw, Crossley, Olbison, Halafihi.

So no Gaskell, Mullaney, Siejka or Ferguson. Which means we're actually going to go into a game against Leigh with no recognised halfbacks and either Mendeika or Purtell at stand off, along side Addy at scrum half. God help us, I'm not even sure I can bring myself to watch this.

Reluctantly, I'd line up like this:

Shaw
Caro
Blythe
Mendeika
Williams
Purtell
Addy
Sidlow
AoB
Clough
Olbison
Pitts
Walker

Crossley
Lauaki/Fleming
Walshaw
Halafihi

Henry and either Lauaki or Fleming to miss out.

Re: Bradford Bulls vs Leigh Centurions : Fri Jul 17, 2015 1:17 pm  

As the game slips away I would get AOB off ASAP and give Halafihi a good long session.

I don't believe you should use fringe members of the squad like that. With the game already lost we need to play AOB on and on and on until he burns out.
