distantdog Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 I know it is irrelevant now, and like PD above, I thought the ref had a decent game but...... the pass from Johnson to Hall was never forward in a million years. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LongStandingBull Posted September 25, 2021 Share Posted September 25, 2021 Well done Batley. Well worth the victory. I’ve said a few times but Bradford were just happy to make the playoffs which is a shame as we have ended our season with a whimper but good luck Batley. See you again next year 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might do the same, once my heart rate has normalised. Although, I'm not sure I would fancy us to win once they got back to 16-10 and that forward pass ruling from Johnson to Hall went against us, even on a second viewing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frank Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Great game of footy, on the edge of seat stuff and well worth staying up for. The Dogs defence was terrific despite Bradford being held up over the line a number of times. Will the Dogs make the trip to France due to Covid? If so hope it's televised.

ernieone Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Yes they are going to France, on a chartered plane, then about an hour coach ride to the ground, play the match then a hour coach ride back to the airport, then back on the airplane all completed in 24 hours. Obviously there is getting to and from the airport in England as well. I am sure they will get some food at some point. 1 1950s Gallant Youth, 2000 Bulldog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sentoffagain2 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Well done on a well deserved win.Like i said in an earlier post you have the best Batley side i have seen since the one that won The National Rail Cup.Good ball control you do the basics well and Gilmore has a very good kicking game.Soften Toulouse up a bit for us (FEV) or Fax let them know they have been in a game.And for any supporters going don't mix other drinks with red wine or a couple of days off work may be required.Good luck. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piggy's mate Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I think the game summed up our season in one game. We played some good stuff down hill and defended resolutely all game, a real team performance controlled really well by Gilmore. I hope we can give a similar performance in France next week. However it ends it has been a great season for us 4 Touch Rugby W(h)inger and part-time Super Hero (Thursday mornings by appointment) BATLEY BULLDOGS RLFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep The Faith Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Wow what can I say what a performance from the boys! 100% effort from 1-17 but what tactics from the student against his teacher our defence has improved massively this year it’s won the last 2 games against sides who like to play with the ball… we’ve shut them down massively walshaw’s tackle in the second half to stop a certain try was class our support helped the boys can we be like that every week I’m sure they’d like that! 1 http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

RogerT Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 The atmosphere on the terraces was magic, and that try of Hall's was most certain as soon as he had the ball in hand, he didn't have much room to play with but took the ball at speed and there was only one thing on his mind TRY time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bull pups Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Walshaws tackle was the game changer, don't know how he managed to keep him from scoring, can't wait to watch the game back, oh and how I miss that atmosphere at the home games!!! Bit of an anti climax with having to go Toulouse instead of Fev but the boys will give everything i have no doubt!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That could have been costly for Batley had the ref spotted it and could have undone all of Batley’s deserved hard work. Im saving the recording to watch back later when I’m ready to stomach the passenger speed Bradford attack. A shame to end the Bradford season on 4 losses in a row but playoffs was the aim and that was achieved. Good luck Batley and I hope you get a good game out in France and keep the score line more respectable than we would have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
