He was fuming when we gave a penalty away late on, thru his water bottle in disgust, starting to show some passion at least, so he is bothered about losing, it means more to him than just a job, gone up in my eyes just for doing that, some coaches just carry on chewing their gum, of course others look at ref as tho they wanna deck him.

Nah, one of the goals for the team this year...

"Beat the teams that were above us in the table last year"


He'd just realised that the team think thats ALL they have to do!!!

"A week is a long time in rugby league. We needed to respond after last week and we responded in the right manner.

"What happened last week wasn't acceptable and I'm very pleased we've managed to bring back some credibility to ourselves."

"Once they get on a roll, it's very difficult to come back but it was a fantastic effort by the players. They showed some real belief.

"Ben Jeffries came up with some crucial plays but it was not a night to single anybody out. The club as a whole needed to respond."

Did you get the feeling Eddie was willing Saints to do something similar he seemed real upset when Bradford got the scrum with second left.

Didn't he just!!

Glad we managed not to oblige him! Although I was all for murdering Langley a couple of mins earlier, must admit!

Good job I was sat at home watching on my own because Mr Langley was on the end of a few choice words.

Yeah, he wanted to repeat his legendary, awe inspiring commentating piece...

Highly informative stuff that deserved some sort of award... well, at least Stevo seems to think so

Thought Menzies' article in the T&A this week was highly significant.
Full support for the coaching staff, support for the quality of players and their attitude. Loves it at Bradford, as does his familly, and wants another year here if he's allowed (allowed!. ffs). Totally scotched rumours of any disaffection or return to Aus.

Nothing said on Sky about this.
