Great performance, apart from last 2 mins of first half we were always the better team. Second half almost faultless, great defence, going forward we were direct and made yards, and finshed well.

Strong position now to go for top two!

Excellent win, the boys are showing spirit and a will to win games.
What is good is when we go behind on the scoreboard we don't panic heads don't drop and we grind out the result.
What is bad! 6-3 penalty count in the first half, and an inability to get the ball between the sticks after a try.

Just got home after a brilliant day out.
I felt it was an evenly contested first half with both teams owning a 10 minute spell & the rest of the half evenly split.
I don't know what Hendo said to the team at half time but it certainly worked. We owned that second half & showed that we are now contenders for the Championship title.
I've followed this side for many years & I can honestly say this is the best team we have had since the days of the "Golden Triangle " when we were at Brentford.
Hendo has managed to install a sense of self belief & team spirit that is a pleasure to see.
Well done to the large number of Bradford fans who made the trip down, you certainly contributed to a great atmosphere at the ground.

Was always confident. Uphill first half, downhill second never fails!

Would love for there to be a second Barthau.

Well as Fox Mulder once said I want to believe, and I am almost a believer....

But

I am so happy with today, and with other games and the fact that top 2 is so within our grasp

But

Can we give 8-10 points a game in missed kicks to Hull KR, or to Hudds, or Salford, or Leeds or Wakefield......

its the only down about today, it was great performance, great effort, great defence, great attack all was brilliant. I have not been this happy as a Bronco for years.....

But

Will the cigarette smoking man (sorry about all x-files references here) block us with our inability to turn 4 points into 6... Will we lose to Super League teams owing to it.....

Please Hendo we are so close to believing... Please get us kicking goals again

I don't want to bring any bad news but....it seems Mick Gledhill,a Bradford fan,using thegamecaller 'tag'? on Twitter is reporting a bit of a disturbance involving players,where one has sustained a broken jaw and suspensions likely for the future.

Do you have any update? I don't so Twitter.

If it not for public consumption then just find out for yourselves.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

I believe this maybe in relation to Dale Ferguson's yellow card midway through the second half. He's apparently head butted somebody. Didn't see the incident during the game. I don't think he was placed on report either.

Re: Bradford : Sun May 01, 2016 9:50 pm  

Our players or Bradford? Did see something happening with the stewards behind the sticks towards the end of the game.

Re: Bradford : Sun May 01, 2016 9:54 pm  

He was yellow carded for using the head in the tackle, it does not need to be put on report it will be looked at anyhow.
Couple of our players had a fair bit of shall, we say signs of battle but heard nothing about a broken jaw

Re: Bradford : Sun May 01, 2016 10:07 pm  

Add to that the last minute or so of the game. Bradford player decides to have a go in tackle, Ball played and Bradford player continues it, Broncos player unsurprisingly responds. Then it breaks out a bit and players fly in. Two players sin binned.
