DALTON Grant's milestone of reaching 100 tries rather slipped under the radar almost a fortnight ago.

His brace which took him to three figures in his 150th appearance occurred in the 30-28 top-of-the-table home defeat against York City Knights.

However, the 28-year-old Welshman, although glad to reach the landmark, prefers to look at the bigger Betfred League One picture.

Winger Grant admitted about his three-figure feat: "It was a bit overshadowed because we didn't get the result that we wanted, and I was a bit gutted, but it was nice to get 100 tries in 150 career appearances – a good milestone for my career and I was happy to get it at Bradford."

But he knows that their points difference advantage over York, which currently stands at 138, could be crucial to the final outcome with just seven games left.

Grant, who has left team-mate George Flanagan behind on the try count (he has 98), said: "It is massive to keep ticking these games off but not only just ticking these games off but winning them well as it keeps more pressure on York and less pressure on us.

"Every game we have to knock off and look for that promotion spot, and that is what we targeted at the start of the season.

"We believe in ourselves, and hopefully if we keep playing like we are that is what we will do and be victorious."

The Bulls have been given a boost by the late-season signing of James Green, Tuoyo Egodo and Jordan Lilley.

Grant, who formed a new right-sided link with centre Egodo, said: "The new lads are going to bring some strength and speed.

"We had areas where we had injuries so it is nice to have a different person to play with, and as soon as we gel and we have played a couple of games we are going to bounce off each other and play better.

"I don't know who is going to be centre but whoever it is I try and work with them and find a partnership, and when we find each other it is going to be a good partnership."

After the setback against the Knights, the Bulls bounced back last weekend with a 58-12 victory at London Skolars.

Grant admitted: "It was hot, it was very windy but the boys did well after a loss the previous week.

"We knuckled down and we knew it was going to be a strong London team – they only lost by two points to York (22-20 in the capital last month) – so we came down and did a good job.

"I think John Kear was happy, the boys were happy to get back to winning ways and it is important now to take this forward into the next seven games and try and win the league."

Their seven steps to the potential heaven of the Betfred Championship starts tomorrow with a potentially tricky home match against fourth-placed Whitehaven.
