Yesterday, the Bulls faced budding rivals Central Coast Mariners in a Saturday afternoon clash at Glen Willow Sporting Complex in Mudgee. It is here that the Bulls faced a 4 – 2 Loss with the Mariners coming out victorious.
Mariappa’s equaliser in the late minutes of the first half gave hope to the Bulls and their fans but unfortunately, the second half held many surprises for the Bulls, including a 3 goal lead for the Mariners.
