Great game for rugby fans. Not so good for fans of Bradford defensive efforts.

Job done. Can't really complain about winning by 20+ in Barrow as its never an easy place to go and they're fighting for their lives.

But I do think a bit of a mentality change is needed for next season. From being 32-6 up, thsn letting in another 16 points in the second half is disappointing. We need that killerinstinct to keep them down and us to kick on and rack up a big score. It sounded like we had a strong wind to contend with in the second half, but our poor points difference tells a story. It's an area for improvement next year IMO

But I'd have taken that at the beginning of the game. Let's have a strong finish to the season now lads.

as Mick G keeps on saying, we've had 13 games where we have won or lost with a less than six points diff ... we are still knocking on the top 5 door but those games do define a season, put them right we are contenders

Still don't understand the strategy of starting with one average prop only (Crossley) and what does Kear say at half time, given 2nd half of last 2 games better if it was nothing!! Very poor second half defensive efforts.
