We've got another big game coming up this weekend against a Featherstone side that's given us trouble in the past. It's going to be a real test, but after last week's solid win, we should be feeling confident that we can carry that momentum forward. The Rovers are coming into the game after back-to-back wins against Batley and Widnes.



With Widnes playing Wakefield you would assume the Vikings will drop more points this weekend which could see us open up a slight gap between 4th and 5th place if we can secure a win!



The Bulls women's team will be kicking off at 12:00pm and the Academy team will be playing after the men's game at 5:15pm.

Disciplinary update:



Franklin Pele escapes a ban. Featherstone’s Jack Bussey will be banned for this fixture.

I hope history doesn't repeat. Whenever we have a chance to put some daylight between us and the chasing pack, we seem to wheel out our poorest performances. Let's hope lessons around pressure and game management are locked in.

Lawrence is fit to play….

No, as always in the Championship Bussey's ban will start the following week.

Hooker Harry Bowes is banned for Fev following an incident from the previous week's game.

I predict a close game. Fev seem to have improved lately and we're still putting in some inconsistent performances. Thrashing Whitehaven is one thing but Fev will be a different proposition.

Yeah this will be the game whether we have turned the corner. Fev have certainly tightened up defensively and we won't be able to run through them like Whitehaven. That phrase "game-management" will be key.

Bulls 21 man squad

Davies in for Hallas. Surprised a bit that Hallas isn't in the 21 man squad as he's been solid recently. Is he injured?

1: Holmes

2: Taufua

3: Myers

4: Lehman

5: Okunbor

6: Sammut

7: Lilley

8: Bayliss

9: Souter

10: Lawrence

11: Davies

12: Fulton

13: Doro



14: Ott

15: Pele

16: Appo

17: Makin



Doro or Lawrence to rotate between prop and Loose

I would have still played Davies over Hallas anyway. Think Hallas has been OK, still poor discipline and gets involved in needless confrontations. Watched the highlights of Fev/Widnes and looked to be a bit of needle in that one. Think it will be a spicy game this week too.



Hoepfully the week off will do Davies good as thought he looked fatigued last few weeks. He's done some big minutes.

Sheffield have lost at home to Batley meaning if we can win on Sunday we go up to 3rd place.
