Video - Lowes laments Bradford’s costly errors against Leigh
Bradford, with just one fixture remaining at in-form Halifax, cannot finish top of the second-tier now but that is not their goal for 2015.
Promotion is the key and, having played their part in a thrilling game in front of 9,181 fans, they will be confident of their chances of promotion in the forthcoming Qualifiers.

“You can’t afford to do that through the Middle Eights against Super League clubs.
“But I thought our effort was fantastic and, with that sort of crowd, these two clubs should be in Super League.”
Ryan Shaw was brilliant at full-back for Bradford and Danny Addy stellar at half-back.

“We’ve got mixed emotions as we wanted to win; we put ourselves in a good position to do that but a few errors allowed them to score and get back in the game.
“Danny Addy was fantastic again for us. I know he threw an intercept try at the end but that’s part and parcel of the game – dealing with errors.
“And there was certainly more good stuff than bad in there.”
