Widnes could stop Hull if their where granted a licence. Can’t see Celtic Crusaders stopping Hull really!

Bull's will beat you this coming weekend, and if they don't...well, it's another nail in Macca's coffin, so either way, it could be a good result for Bradford...it's a win/win situation for us

I have been wondering what bradford fans would prefer this weekend,
The 2 points or Macca to be sacked?
Obviously a big defeat by Hull would possibly see the end to his reign.




please note (my opinion is that it will be a very tough game this week and FC will be lucky to get a win at odsal)

Hull K.R are looking promising this season. a draw against bradford at odsal, a narrow loss to leeds, a great win against saints at KR and a scrappy win against wakefield (our so called boogy side.)

Really believe me when i say I'm not from Hull PLEASE

I'm just stating that with Hull in such fine form can they be stopped

Wonders will never cease, Rommel praising Hull! You'll be admitting Radford is in decent form as well soon.

Hull have been efficient without being flash so far. We have been fortunately to have a stuttering Wigan side on our first game, the leagues newbies and then two clubs who had suffered injuries to some of their key forwards.

You can only beat whats infront of you and to be fair to Hull our defence has been on the whole, very good.

Our weakness is our lack of any real pace. Despite having Calderwood on the wing, no one appears to want to pass him the ball so his pace is largely redundant. Raynor is to return which will add a bit of zip in the backs.

If we can beat Braford in the crater next Sunday, we then have Cas at Home and Quins away. Not wanting to get too in front of our selves but that could be 7 out of 7.

Easter will be a true test when we host the unwashed on good Friday and the go to St Helens on Easter monday. IF we make it 9 out of 9, then I will start to think about bigger things, until then I will be, as most Hull fans will be, fairly level headed about it.

It's such a long season that every team's going to have highs and dips. While i'd rather my team have had the good start Hull have had I still don't think they've been particularly tested yet.
I've been impressed at how Leeds have won every game despite imo playing poorly and with quite a few injuries. Championship form for me

With all due respect, Widnes couldn't stop an emply pram.

Bradford, Castleford and Harlequins will all be hard games. Maybe the 3 hardest upto now.
