Never did either of us say there was a conspiracy theory so please don't jump on the bandwagon with that troll Bull Mania.
Hey Mick, Never mind timekeeping it was clearly Damian Irvine's fault we lost. Was it 5 minutes into the second half when York went for their first drop goal. Damian clearly said "I'll tell you this. This game won't be won on a drop goal"

Here are the goal-kicking percentages for the season to date.
Minchella 73% Lilley 75% Keyes 77%
John Kear has repeatedly said throughout the season that his goalkicker needs to be at 85-90%.
It was mentioned in the commentary yesterday that Bulls have been involved in 11 matches where the score has been less than 6 either way. Does anyone know how many of the matches we have lost would have been won had we had a 85% lick rate.
Three league games and the Challenge Cup game vs Halifax.

What a bizarre comment, whats wrong with a coach wanting that? Doesn't mean he is going to get it!

It happened right in front of me not more than 10 or 12 metres away. Evans copped a bad one but I'm far from sure there was actually any malice in it. Lack of a penalty was poor refereeing though as there was clear contact with the head and it should have been automatic, intentional or not.

It would have been 80% ish yes, he was a superb kicker. The problem was that he was nowhere near as good a winger as goalkicker so, even though he had quite a few appearances I don't think he was the first choice when everyone was fit. To be honest I was surprised he got a gig in SL.
If we lose Ethan it may be a different story but for mine he isn't in the same league as either Ran or Hitchcox.

Win lose or draw I’m not bothered about the result, but what does concern me is that tackle on Evans, it’s a shocker and needs looking at by the rfl, the referee and linesmen also have a duty of care to the players, Evans is no softy and for him to stay down says it was a bad tackle
