Probably the only game in the plays off where we will be favourites to win and with that added pressure. I expect it to be close and it could be another match that is decided by successful conversions.

Discipline needs to be good as I imagine Ford will be keen to drag it towards a grubby and niggly game.

Over the entire season this squad has been better than 2023, but in play off rugby that counts for nothing.

Hallas at 9. Dear god. Feels Dejavu of Jimmy Lowes playing Jean Philipe-Baille at Hooker despite not playing there all year...

I know, I said EoC rated Hallas. But I didn’t expect Ott to make way to fit him in.
Smith over Bayliss, fine , I can see that.
JD missing out as well.
This is a powerful pack. Hallas can always rotate to Loose as well I suppose.

EOC vindicated. Must say I was bemused by that selection.

GET IN!

Yeh must admit, I wouldn't have had Hallas as starting 9 but he managed the physical battle better than Souter or Ott would have so credit to EOC for that selection.

I thought Bradford utterly dominated Fev and they didn't have any answers until they tried a few off the cuff players near the end. Impressive performance but we will need to be less wasteful in attack versus Toulouse. Be a few sore bodies on both sides, wonder if EOC will rotate the pack a little?

What a fantastic win! One of the best performances of the season. Are we peaking at the right time?!

I was slightly concerned that with so much territory and forward momentum but only being 7-0 up at half time would potentially come back to bite us. We could have had the game sewn up earlier if Sammut and Gill finish off their tries.

I felt that in the second half we were relentless going forward. We bullied them in the forwards, marching down the field with power and control, setting the platform for some fantastic tries from Appo and Lilley. It was a full team effort, with everyone playing their part in a well-rounded display. Always good to get one over that mob.

Did anyone encounter the delays on the M606? Ben Reynolds’ dummy landed in the outside lane.

Great win for the Bulls that

Didn't rate the Fev interchange prop, not quite as big as Pele but far too slow and lacked go forward, Patton I think he was called.

One of the highlights of the game was watching a smooth and slick Featherstone attack come to a screeching halt when Patton, with the overlap on the right side, throws a pass that sails into touch.
