33-20.

Game Over.

Discipline continues to be a matter for great concern that will and has cost us games this year.
I don't disagree with the pens against us, after all the ref is far closer to the action than I am but it does seem that we are being judged (prejudged?) on our reputation and our opponents are not subject to the same close scrutiny in the tackle area.
Bluey needs to speak to Cummins about what we are doing that our opponents aren't. Not confrontationally but from genuine concern and in a positive attempt to improve.

Lock thread.

Main event was magic - I said to the wife that we looked stronger at sixty minutes and had no doubt we would go on and do the business. Newton was spent by then as were the rest of the Bradford pack. Sam Burgess was knackered after five minutes - he took ages to get off our players after being the third man into the tackle and just flopped through sheer exhaustion! That nasty Bentham penalised him twice for it - how dare he do such a thing to a tired player.....

Have to mention it - thought Jones-Bishops try in the reserve game was magic - what handling and quick passing between three players and he was off!

Whilst on, are we really that bad disciplinary wise? I thought that for every time we had a set of six, Bradford were offside for three sometimes four and five of those tackles. I know people will say that I am moaning but I do feel that the referees penalise us unjustly. Perhaps it is a "You are champions and you should know better" mentality......

Having said that we did make some howlers last night....... A decent team would have put us to the sword, thank goodness it was only the Bulls!!

Just saw the Burrow try on SSN. He just bursts into a sprint doesn't he. He's well fast him. It made me go 'GO ON ROB! GO ON!' even though Alex Hammond (munter&) told me he was going to score. Woke my brother up who was asleep on the couch. Pi[iss[/i'ead.
