Expecting a shalacking but looking forward to seeing the continued progress of the game's next super stars...

Everything you need for an away day at Fev.

Happy to note that you've remembered your "Bulls Tax".

Don't think we're charging extra to sit in the stand this time.  Why not spend your £2 windfall on a cup of tea.

I think you'll do us on Monday.  I think we probably expended far too much energy trying to win a totally un-winnable game on Friday.

£2 for a cup of tea!  You've got some front down there.

I'll be astonished if we win.  We can't even name a full squad of 19.  We've got some cracking kids though so watch out for those..

Forever in our shadow, forever on your mind.

Good team Fev. They out enthused us and played well on Friday, to the extent that the best team most probably lost.

They played the tactic of kicking any close range penalties, which nearly worked for them. They could possibly have won, had they backed their skills with the ball in hand.

As for us having seen the squad for the Toulouse game I would be surprised if the winning run continues. Only 5 players have squad numbers under 17

Tough ask for London to go to Batley , IMO best result of the ill starred Rob Powell era was the challenge cup win there in the wind and rain which with the slope makes the difference. Not a ground to be forward lite.

Hendo said they needed a win to turn things around. They got the big win but that was then this is now. I hope this Janet Jackson number is on the team bus going up  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r9uizdKZAGE

Far better 2nd half from Bradford, and ill-discipline from Fev who slacked off considerably. 44-18 final score.

Awesome stuff - Broncos flying as well today. The Middle 8s are going to be tough this year...

If Toulouse get 2nd I understand they get 4 home fixtures. If that is London, Featherstone, Widnes and Huddersfield then that is going to be fun.

Predictable beating for a patched up Bulls today, somewhat mitigated by a better 2nd half (which may just have been Fev slacking off..)

With Swinton and Dewsbury getting wins over Easter we are actually worse off than we were a couple of weeks ago, and fast running out of fit and available players. If the owners want us to stay up it is going to require investing in a couple of experience forwards - although heaven only knows where we'd find them!

Swinton v Rochdale looks like it was a nail-biter!

London getting back in the race with an impressive result at Batley.

Not surprised by the Toulouse result not many sides will come away with the points down there this season and KR had a few injuries.
