14-05-12 ROUND 4: BACK IN THE WINNERS CIRCLE!
After a lack lustre performace against Looma last week, the Broome Bulls have turned things around demolishing Bidgydanga by 66 points on the weekend. After acknowledging during the week that they needed to start the games better, the Bulls put the first three goals on the board to take early control of the game. Bidgy though had other ideas and through their trademark pace were able to peg back the score and tie it up at quarter time 4.1 a piece. The second quarter saw both teams attempting to get ascendency in the game with the Bulls taking a slender lead into the main break but looking like they were ready to step it up a notch in the second half. The boys started to gain the upper hand in the third but skill errors leading to costly turnovers were still hurting us early on, but as the quarter went along they tidied them up and we started to draw away from them on the scoreboard. The fourth quarter saw the Bulls display the type of football that will win us a lot more games this year, a 4 goal blitz in the first 5 minutes put the result beyond doubt as kicks and handballs started to hit targets and the ball movement around the ground was too much for the tired and demoralised Emus outfit to contain, the Bulls running over the top of their opponents to get some much needed confidence ahead of some tough games in the next couple of weeks. Rod "Jumbo" Mcalpine put in a dominat performance in the ruck and up forward to bag 5 majors, while Captain/Coach Tim "Dinga" Richter was a ball magnet and easily Best on Ground, taking home the pink footy from the game, probably a good Mother Day present considering his parents were up this week for a visit! results ladder

07-05-12 ROUND 3: LOSS TO THE LOOMA EAGLES
In a tale of two halves, the Bulls have suffered their second loss of the season with a 36 point loss to the Looma Eagles on the weekend. A flat and lack lustre Bulls outfit allowed Looma to control the game, leaving spare players all over the ground which resulted in Looma taking an 8 goal lead midway trhough the second term. The second half saw them lift their intensity and their run & carry of the ball which saw the boys get to within 3 goals in the last quarter, before a few late goals to ex West Coast listed player Lewis Broome put the result out of touch. Simon "Simmo" Peining put in a superb effort tagging Lyle Buck out of the game and can look forward to some more tagging roles in the future, while down back the loud mouth of the team Craig "Rowdy" Hall put in his best performance for the Bulls with a gutsy effort, copping a few big hits along the way.

30-04-12. ROUND2: BULLS GO DOWN IN NARROW LOSS TO TOWNS
The Bulls have gone down to arch rivals Towns by 9 points in round two of the WKFL season. In a tight and hard contest all day, the Bulls had plenty of opportunity to win the game, but costly skills mistakes and lack of talking resulted in easy turnovers that cost them dearly. The signs are there that the team has improved dramatically from last year and when they move the ball cleanly they look unstoppable, but from the sidelines it looks like they still havent quite gelled into the team they can be. The mood after the game was sombre as all the players knew they had let slip a golden opportunity to go 2-0 and turn the tables on the old foe. Hopefully it is the spark the boys need to kick-start their season. results

The Bulls kicked off the 2012 season with a hard fought win over a revitalized Saints outfit on the weekend. The Bulls led from start to finish and controlled the game all over the ground, a lapse in focus in the third quarter got Saints to within 1 point at the last break but the boys were good enough to keep them at bay and proved to themselves that the hard pre-season has worked as they ran over the top of them to win by 17 points ...results
