I honestly thought we'd get battered today.  Dan Murray looks a decent signing.

This has been a massive improvement on previous weeks - we've not looked anywhere near this standard in the last few matches.

Ok, I was going on the Doncaster score really though I think they were missing a few that day.

Bradford put up a decent fight for a lot of the game, but it got away from them in the end.

They need more attacking options than Lilley for me. Too much is just going though him

Mitch Souter looked pretty handy - haven't seen him play before.

Good win for Widnes this, Bradford just look a power team that lacks anyone with a bit of quality in key positions who can provide a bit of a spark for them when plan A does not work.

Missed Gaskell

Ironically not at his best today.

Something's gone seriously wrong with the draw if those clubs come out of the bag!

I was thinking more along the lines of York Acorn

Is Michael Lawrence excused from making any attempt to play the ball with his foot?

He's excused from making any attempt to play, full stop.

His passing is way too floaty. Players taking the ball on the charge have to slow down to collect it.

[Wolford6]

I thought we'd kissed Kearball goodbye but it was back with a vengeance today. Two scores down with ten minutes to play and O'Carroll still had them barging up the middle.

Two Widnes players sinbinned so we kept speading the ball to create a gap ... basic schoolboy rugby, right? No, O'Carroll still had them barging up the middle.

Our halfbacks were completely out-thought and outplayed by the Widnes pair. Man-of-the-Match anounced. Yup, Jordan Lilley.

Absolute bag of cack.
