    Huge congratulations to them for beating the Leeds Rhinos in the challenge cup today. I'm not really a fan of rugby league but watched it on TV out of boredom. It was no fluke, they fully deserved the victory.

    Great match to watch. The Bulls are not as talented as the Rhinos, but they beat them all the same. ‘Hard work will beat talent every time if talent doesn’t turn up’ heard that quote this morning, made for our miserable bunch!

    Good wins Bulls and very well deserved.

    Really enjoyed watching the game, Bulls were the mirror image of City, low on talent but an absolute desire to get the job done and an unbelievable will to win.
    Hope Derby can add to the misery of our friends in the LS postcode

    Just gotten back from the match 10,240 or so turned up which is the biggest crowd for a challenge cup game for 7 years !!

    Leeds hit the post with a conversion , would have been gutted to let them level the scores

    Just shows what some heart can do in sport , they only got back from Toronto this week and have 4 or 5 top players missing - great effort

    I'm not a big rugby fan either but listened to the last 20 mins driving home from work earlier and it was proper nail biting stuff those last few mins. Good on you Bulls!
    Always great for Bradford to get one over on Leeds on any occasion!

    Watched most of the game, well done to the Bulls, just the sort of battling effort that has been missing for us all season.
    Loved the impeccably observed 56 second silence.

    Not a Rugby fan myself regarding watching the sport, but still always check Bulls results.

    I actually watched the last 20 minutes or so yesterday willing them to hang on

    Always good to see a Bradford team beat a Leeds team, whatever sport

    Rewarded with a very winnable home tie against Halifax.... having said that.... Leeds probably thought the game against the Bulls was very winnable.

    A championship side will definitely be in the semis. A lot to play for with two teams who realistically won't be going up.

    Brought a tear to glass eye boys. Never been a great fan of League But what became apparent that the little boys can come back if its all set up right from the beginning. Hwyl organisation and effort loved it......Are you watching City
