Bradford Bulls 52–6 Salford City Reds — Elimination Play-off, 2006 Super League Finals Series

Elimination Play-off, 2006 Super League finals series: Bradford Bulls 52–6 Salford City Reds, at Grattan Stadium, Bradford on 23 Sep 2006.

Sourcing caveat: Individual try minutes were not confirmed across sources and are omitted rather than guessed at. Both lineups fetched cleanly with real, varied squad numbers (e.g. Bradford's Sam Burgess at 30 coming off the bench to score, consistent with this match's own try-scorer list above). Salford's own team-sheet page printed three forwards (numbers 10, 19 and 11) all labelled Second Row rather than the expected Prop/Second Row/Second Row split for their slot positions — treated as a source-side labelling inconsistency rather than a genuine tactical oddity, and resolved (per this project's established convention of assigning positions by slot order rather than a literal printed abbreviation) by recording Sean Rutgerson (10, the second forwards slot after the already-clearly-labelled prop Andy Coley) as Prop, with Stuart Littler (19) and Simon Finnigan (11) kept as Second Row. Bradford's numbering here cross-matched exactly, unchanged, with this club's Elimination Semi-Final appearance the following week. Coaches confirmed via web search: Steve McNamara (Bradford, reused from 13ax/13ay's already-established sourcing) and Karl Harrison (Salford — Wikipedia confirms his tenure ran June 2002 to his sacking on 22 May 2007, spanning this September 2006 match).
