Bradford Bulls v Warrington Wolves

Grattan Stadium, Odsal, Bradford
Friday 4th August 2006
Kick Off: 20:00
Gates Open: 17:30

Warrington Wolves make the short trip across the M62 to The Grattan Stadium home of Bradford Bulls looking to continue the impressive run of form against the World Champions. Warrington have won on the past 2 league meetings against the Bulls and will go into the match on Friday night looking to make it 3 wins on the spin. Warrington last lost a league encounter against the Bulls back in 2004 when Bradford ran out 27-28 winners back at The Halliwell Jones Stadium.

Bradford go into the match on the back of 2 succesive league voctories against Wakefield and Catalan and will be looking to close the gap on leaders St. Helens at the top of the table. However, Warrington will be boosted by the return of New Zealand forward Paul Rauhihi who is set to start on the bench, and will no doubt add extra beef into the ever improving Warrington forwards.
