BULLS WOMEN IN ROVERS DEFEAT

After a number of errors from both sides, Featherstone broke the deadlock, with Bradford following up with an effort of their own soon after.

Chloe Billington then raced away and touched down, after a Bradford error, before Tiegan Ramsden scored her first try for the club after good work from Millie Taylor. 

Before the hooter, Courtman scored which handed the home side the lead going into the break, which they further strengthened in the second half.
