August
Bradford Played Hull KR, whose record as the side with the worst home record in engage Super League continued at Craven Park as the Bulls eased to a 10 points to 28 victory. Twelve-man Bradford overcame a gritty Wakefield comeback and kept the pressure on engage Super League's top two after controversial referee Steve Ganson marked his return to the Grattan Stadium, Odsal by sending off Bulls prop Joe Vagana. Bradford hung on to beat Wildcats 38-24. McNamara refused to be drawn on his thoughts surrounding Vagana's sending off but did defend the Kiwi prop's record. "Joe's one of the nicest and fairest players in the competition," he said. "His disciplinary record is exemplary. I don't think he's ever been sent off for foul play so hopefully the disciplinary process will take due course and he'll avoid suspension." In last game of August Bradford played Huddersfield Giants, the Bulls’ top spot hopes suffered a setback at The Galpharm in an ill-disciplined and scrappy affair which saw a player from each side sent off. Bradford's Tame Tupou was sent off for punching on 63 minutes while Giants prop Keith Mason saw red soon after for striking Glenn Morrison. Bradford lost 26-22
