Diskin

Sidlow

Addy

Olbison

Donno

-----

Manu

O'Brien

Bridge

Roberts

Tomorrow I think ?

The back line is doing ok so I would put Blythe in the second row where once again the tackling of our back rowers (except Donno) leaves a lot to be desired.

Not too many changes in the Rovers 1-17 that played at Wigan last week. Took Wigan close for 72 minutes only to throw it away with stupid indiscipline and a lack of game management.



This means a big pack that could include Lovegrove if he's selected. That could be a big problem for Bradford if they're still really short on front rowers.



At Rovers there is hope that this is the game that our backs can find their feet and our forwards can get on to a role to start dominating sides. For Bradford I suspect this is a game that is marked as one they can really try and go for the win. In the current circumstances at your club it will be these games against sides like Rovers/Salford/Wakey...etc that you have to target and be at your best so I think it'll be tougher than some Rovers fans may think.



Safe journey to any of you who are coming over, enjoy the new facilities and hopefully after this game you can pick yourselves up and bring in some big guys to help you lay a platform!

Rovers have had a tough start to the season having played Leeds, Wigan, Huddersfield and St Helens already. I think they are probably a better team than their league position suggests.

If we could win this it'd be a real shot in the arm. Not optimistic given the lack of forward power.

Is the stadium finished now? Where do away fans go? There is no way I am going if we are put in the far end where the view is DIABOLICAL again.

Away fans are now in the newly finished end are they not ??

Away fans have a lovely stand to stay snug and cosy in! That ground is immeasurably better for it.



They showed against Wigan that they are now getting up to speed. I don't think we can compete on Sunday so I've tipped Rovers by at least 20.

Return of Mullaly and Sidlow should help, should be a close one.

19 man squad won't be named today, it's always named two days before the game so it will be tomorrow.
