So during the half time I was confident that it was the start of a good weekend, and expected Wigan to push on but |
how wrong I was. ORFORD IS HIS NAME MATT ORFORD, during half time I was watching the coaches in the |
dressing room on Sky, but I thought Steve McNamara was Bradford coach. |
| |
I was watching a tiny Aussie scrum half wagging his finger and directing the players or was he just telling all of them |
the same thing "just give me the bloody ball will ya" because if he did it worked. The genius turned this game |
around, his kicking and passing, his mere direction turned the game on its head. |
| |
But Wigan still had chances in the second half to win the game or at the very least pull further clear but they just |
couldn't hold them. What a spectacle for the working mans game, a battle of will and attrition and the winner was the |
fans not just of Bradford but for the fans of rugby in general. |
| |
|
| |
I thought Wigan would have had the class to win this game, in contradiction to another tipsters post. Wigan might |
not have beaten much this season or beaten them convincingly but I look at how many points they should have |
scored. Every team misses chances it's what makes the game of rugby league so great. |
| |
1 tackle in the match witnessed a short full back knock a 6 ft + rampaging winger out from the field of play with the try |
line begging. Full contact, bone crunching tackles, just why we love this sport, battles of David VS Goliath. I could |
just imagine Arsene Wenger going to watch a game of rugby league, he would cry at the punishment that our teams |
stars have to put up with. |
| |
Broken bones are a part of our sport it happens, but they still come back for more. This year we have already |
witnessed broken legs, noses and arms and were only in the first month, but as soon as they can, these guys will be |
back for more. |
| |
This season looks like its going to be another classic for the followers of the game. Saints are not firing on all |
cylinders. Leeds don't seem to have the depth of previous years, Wolves ....well they jury is still out on that one, and |
then Wigan, they personally are my tip to win the main thing this year and being a Rhinos fan that's a little hard to |
say. Could it be the year of the underdog? If so which one, Huddersfield, Hull FC. Who knows? |
