Bradford Bulls - RedAmberandBlack.net • Re: Summer Bash: Halifax
Echo what others have said for the most part, we are boring to watch and it does become a chore at times.
Halifax where far the better team and wanted it more than us, stupid penalities cost us, and when we get dragged into an arm wrestle we lose our cool and give them what they want, thought Webster swinging arm in to a tackled player was the epitome of this we gifted them 30m to escape there where going anywhere.
Our D line speed is poor like said, we advance a couple of yards then stand and wait, the last 10mins of the match we actually bothered and where all over them, similar to last year we look tired, I know we have had 2 hard games in 2 weeks prior but we where like this at the start of the year.
The last tackle option is easy to defend against why can't we put some grubbers through, tried it once on sat and came away with a drop out.
Very one dimensional in attack when Fax came they had multiple runners to choose from and support we bundle up field then run sideways when stuck, have an idea what will happen next before it does we are easy to read.
Start of the season I'd be happy with anything from 8 up and still would just wish we where more inventive, even if this meant losing.
Kear is the right man to steady the ship and get the defence right but it isn't fun to watch like the Big Sam of RL.
That said I do expect us to beat fax in a couple of weeks.
