Third game in four (all away from home) we've matched the opposition for tries and lost by the odd goal kick. Shame, but onwards and upwards, a better effort in the second game of the weekend than some clubs managed, it seems.

What a joke Silverwood was today, I hope Wakefield enjoy there new kitchen sink.

But they still got the same amount of points.

Indeed, I heard a whisper at the Wakey ground that the back to back champions are wanting to be known as the back to back losers


Not sure if there's any truth in that though

Reasonable performance from the team all things considered. I thought it was a pretty even contest on the whole with both sides having dominant periods throughout the game. Unfortunately a few lapses in concentration such as letting the ball bounce out of play after just after scoring (still not learnt our lesson there) and an interception from a sloppy pass cost us the points.

Unfortunate to see Crookes go off injured, leaves us looking very short in the centre's now. The shuffle certainly didn't help matters but Platt did ok in covering. Solomona looked well off the pace and only played around 25 mins or so and made a few handling errors before being replaced.

Menzies once again showed his class and could once again have quite easily won it for us. Get this guy signed up for another year!! I think Wakefield just about deserved their win, but it could have quite easily been a Bulls 2 points with our late surge!
