Squad as named on Super League website! No Sammut so guessing his injury might keep him out for a while knowing our luck this season...

Injured knee.

Jeffries has been our solid half all year. Didn't think he deserved to be dropped against Wigan. I expect him to have a big game along with the rest of the boys. They will do it for Potter and the other staff (that were sacked). Hopefully BJ will get his 100th Super league try on Sunday. Go the Bulls!!

Based on the current table if we were hit with a 6 point deduction we would be back on 15 points with Salford - 4 points behind HKR.

If we could keep the same team on the pitch, Potter & co at the helm - and a ground full of fanatical fans cheering them on then I honestly believe we could still make the play-offs

Even if you did make the play-offs , some would argue that you should not be allowed to play in them. Fans of some clubs just below the bulls would be justifiably miffed if you did play in them therefore denying their club a revenue stream to help them pay their bills/creditors etc when the bulls will have just walked away from their fiscal responsibilities and started afresh. It could come down to a vote as in the case of Rangers FC newco, and who knows, some clubs take on the matter maybe to put you to the bottom of the table.

What a lot of rot!!.The players have done all the hard work on the pitch and have no control on what happens off. If they make the playoffs, then they deserve to be there.

The unique advantages of being in administration. Everyone should do it.

If we take a points deduction on the chin and the team still qualifies for what is the conclusion to the current season - then it would be agaisnt natural justice for the players and the fans not to be allowed a place in the playoffs. What happens next season is another issue but if we get over the hurdle of the points deduction the I think the current team will have more and earned the right to have a last chance to show what they can do - and the fans who have dug deep to be able to urge them on.

Yes there has been clear financial mismangement and the club will have to accept the implications for the future - but the players and fans should not be punished further this season.
