This is going to be a battle of the big packs with Paea and Manuokafao going head-to-head in what could be a bruising encounter! Mika lining up against Langley is just as juicy lol!

The Bulls main strength IMO is at acting half - both Diskin and L'estrange (spelling) will need to be marshalled, and also Langley. Then there is the enigma Sammutt, who can be brilliant on his day.

I cannot see beyond a Rovers win (36-10) if the team can reproduce the defensive effort they showed against Widnes.

Gonna be my first home game of the season due to work commitments! Cant wait, Im going for a home win 34 - 12 the wife seems to think it will be closer! but what does she know? Condolences to the soldiers who lost their lives, think there should be some kind of minutes silence or something, most of em yorkshire lads, and probably rugby league fans! Come on you reds!

Good shout that about the minutes silence.

As long as we front up for the first twenty I think we should be fine, they're light on props so if we can draw them into a war of attrition then hopefully we'll have enough to finish them in the final quarter.






If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

could be interesting.....

Hull Kingston Rovers v Bradford Bulls 5.05pm (SKY)
Ref S Ganson TJ T Martin TJ M Thomason RR T Crashley VR R Silverwood TK R Tennant MC T Randerson


just hope the man in the middle doesn`t spoil it by being the show pony....

Just want the lads to give a bit of consistency and give us a performance for the full 80mins.. But we certainly cannot underestimate the bulls ...so i reckon a close game myself.. and a slight win by around 7pts..

I nominate Mr T to contact Smithy proposing the Minutes Silence, which is a brilliant idea BridHKR.

We could have those Army men march out to put the ball down, too? I'd like that.

When the Army are in town, it's usually a rowdy atmosphere.

The game itself, If the Bulls haven't improved we will tear them a new one.

dum-dum, I made the request this morning. I am always on tenterhooks when news breaks about casualties and deaths from Afghanistan (previously it was Iraq), because my nephew and my daughter's partner (and her step brother) are in the Yorkshire Regiment
