DONCASTER MATCH REPORT

Bradford Bulls made it four straight league wins with a hard fought 18-12 victory over Doncaster at Bartercard Odsal last night!

Brian Noble was able to call upon the services of Jorge Taufua again after a five-month absence – and also named new recruit Chris Hill in his starting line up.

An attritional first half saw points at a premium, but it was the visitors who enjoyed the better of the opening exchanges. 

Watson Boas produced a superb one on one ball steal mid air and dived over the open the scoring.

The boot of Connor Robinson made that 4 into a 6 and made that 6 into a 8 via a penalty goal after half hour. 

With just seconds left on the clock, Joe Keyes dummied and darted through the Doncaster defence to get the Bulls on the board and reduce the arrears to 2. 

In the same vein as the first, the visitors were dominant and resilient and extended their advantage through Ben Johnston. 

Doncaster maintained their lead through to the 65^th minute, when Waqa Blake wrestled past two defenders to score superbly. Luke Hooley converted well to level the scores. 

The Bulls then went back to back with what proved to be the match winning score, the influential Keyes kept the ball alive and found Zac Fulton, who found Jayden Okunbor who dived over in the corner.
