10 years service to the club and they can’t be arsed to promote the game,, there will still be more bulls fans there than Huddersfield,as a club you should be up for fraud, your taking money from superleague and doing nothing to promote it, disgusting

Unlike Bradford who are doing loads for super league....... oh, wait.........

A decent run out. Youngsters did well. Seb was clearly trying to prove himself and was everywhere in defence and attack.
Frawley didn’t stand out at all.
Gaskell on the other hand was impressive- he worried at the Bradford line and it laid off.

Bradford subsidised superleague for years jools, Bradford are In the championship and will still get bigger home gates than you will ever get

Giants looked impressive, especially in comparison to games like this in recent seasons.

Darnell look sharp from the back, aside from some early nerves under high kicks

Gerry, well what a player.

Turner was also very good, just not goal kicking

Jake Wardle was excellent

Innes Senior also had a good game

Gaskell was imperious, his kicking game was brilliant. Brough who?

Frawley took some time to get into the game, but once he did was bossing the game. Probably needs another run out.

Seb. Why the #### were were we trying to get rid of him? Bloody immense today, and big minutes from him.

AOB solid, didn't have to do much

Matagi was very solid too.

Murphy was a bit quiet I think.

Mellor was very good

Bruno also looked sharp at 13

Too many subs to do but they all did their part. English and Roberts ran and hit hard. Farrell is going to have a bright future.

Bulls will go well in the Championship I think, but the Giants are looking to be a top 4 SL side and today was a very early tick in that box

Re: lawrence testamonial v bradford : Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:20 pm  

Can anybody name the Giants line up?

What was the attendance?

Re: lawrence testamonial v bradford : Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:22 pm  

I've just listed the starting 13

And iirc about 1700 crowd

Re: lawrence testamonial v bradford : Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:39 pm  

Is that your top 17?

Re: lawrence testamonial v bradford : Sun Jan 13, 2019 5:48 pm  

No

have not seen anything on the giants website regarding the game or have i missed something

few bits on the website but most people use social media now and its been on the official giants twitter and facebook pages

pretty much a similar turn out today as the cudjoe and robinson testimonials.

Re: lawrence testamonial v bradford : Sun Jan 13, 2019 6:07 pm  

didnt expect to see so many first team players today especially mcgillvary! maybe if the club told the fans the squad beforehand a few more fans may have turned up.

clough, taai, uate, cudjoe were still missing , why walne wasnt playing i dont know.

gaskell the star of the show today, you see with brough not around you will see gaskell flourish, hes a confidence player and when on form top class. he has had so much stick from fans over past few years.

ikahihifo was also a standout... once again showed why we would be stupid to let him go!!!!! only player who can actually break a tackle and offload.

frawley showed a few good glimpses, hes a ball running half and can see him making clean breaks this season.

one area of concern was the goal kicking and it seems we still havent figured out who will kick the goals... you would have thought someone would have been training for the past 3 months non stop kicking goals we had turner then mcintosh then gaskell then russell then farrell !!

for me id like gaskell do the kicking.
