I think that's right about Ryan. He seemed to be talking about his 'new job' in the T&A this week so I think Kear will consider it a good time for him to get some more practice in.

I thought the rugby was been shown on tv

BBC Sport Website & App. Streaming.

Bradford slightly off the boil this afternoon with a lot of changes. The Cougars are up for this one!



HT: Keighley 6 Bradford 4

Just seemed to be a frustrating first half where we didn't have the rub of the green. I think if we'd managed to score earlier in the first half I think they'd have been more settled for the rest of the game

Very lucky escape for the Bulls against a spirited Cougars performance.



FT: Keighley 12 Bradford 14

Tougher game then you were expecting? I thought a lot of your boys looked really average, the exceptional George Flanagan won it near single handedly in the end.

And you lost to those average players even though your team were playing their hearts out.

Good game that, thought Steve Crossley was immense for you guys...but well played to Keighley though.

Why so hostile, I tried to be nice by complementing one of them. Didn't even mention the one-sided refereeing

Complacent performance from a lot of our players. Nearly caught cold. A few of the fringe players didn't help themselves. Keighley did well. Just lacked quality.

Well that was garbage wasnt it.



Plenty of players given a chance today but i cant say that many of them took it.



Flanagan, Crossley and DFJ the only ones who showed up well. God knows what was wrong with the rest of them.
