Amended from Yorkshire.

The Broncos lost the game but Lee Briers was a winner with his attacking system. In the end, the Broncos were dead on their feet. It cost them the game, a reminder of the time when RL didn't have multi-substitutions. Tired Rugby was a vital factor in the game pre-Superleague. We can't go back to playing on heavy pitches in winter but we can go back to limited substitutions. Bring back the rule that, once you are subbed, you are off for the game..

Channel 4 is dipping its toe into Rugby League. Maybe, if no other British major channel wants to show the Aussie Grand Final, they could cut a deal with Sky to show it.

Back to having the spirit of Bradford in the ground. Standing close together with people who may not live in the city and who you don't know personally but we share a love of Bradford and a love of the Bulls. Our town and our team. Love of Bradford is why Bradford City get so many fans. City's results don't really justify their atendances; the community spirit that the club has fostered does. The bars on North Parade are buzzing before and after games; ideally, I'd like to see the same in Wibsey for Bulls fans.

I would expect the RFL to consider that Odsal is unsuitable for Superleague. In such case, we'd have to play at Valley Parade, Keighley or Halifax. I'd prefer Halifax (they still need their stand completing), then Keighley (they could do with the money and we are needlessly antagonistic to each other). I think the RFL would want Valley Parade, because it would look better on the telly. I'm not bothered whether we get to Superleague this season or not. We are a semi-pro team and would need to sign full-time players. I've seen enough journeymen to last me a lifetime. If we signed a bunch of journeymen, they'd be half-expecting relegation. We have a history of not utilising or capitalising on our fantastic academy players. I'd prefer another 2 years in the Championship, developing Superleague-standard young guns.

No Leeds players selected. Best new rule we've had in years. Other than that, in my opinion: Tom Davies and Tommy Makinson have been better than Josh Charnley Jai Field has been better than Jack Welsby Daryl Clark has been better than Edwin Ipape Jonny Lomax should have been in there There's no proper goalkicker in there

Luke Rowe is an animal in the Grand Tours ... spending hours chasing down breaks and shielding his team leader from the wind. Then, at the end of each stage, he coasts in at the back of the pack. At the end of the race he's always trying to finish last overall. Yesterday, in the European Road Race, he flirted with danger ... 75th of 87.

Wakefield colours anyway.

I hadn't realised he'd gone there.

The Transfer Rumour Mill Thread
Wolford6 replied to Mumby Magic's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
The timescale would be tricky. Signing Sam Hallas would take us back two years. He's not a good enough distributor at hooker and he's not big enough at prop. He spends the half his time looking for a fight and is a penalty machine. If we get a previous hooker back, it should be Adam O'Brien or (preferably) Reiss Butterworth -
I'd have predicted that Daryl Powell would be going back to Leeds and Brian McDermott would go to Wakefield.

He dumped his wife by text. Classy. -
Money's Not Everything

Money's not everything but it helps. So does schadenfreude. The Daily Mail is reporting that Russell Brand's ex-wife Katy Perry has just sold her music back-catalogue for £180million. -
One thing I can't do with is all these citrus beers. Even if the first one tastes sort-of-okay, having any more leaves a sickly sweet taste. We brewed beer in this country perfectly well for a thousand years before the first citrus fruit turned up. It's like putting a Dacia engine in a Landrover then painting it pink.
