Big rumour that he is to sign for the bulls tommorow morning.... you heard anything???

I heard it was just a pledge he was signing up to?????

Well done on getting 5000 though sir.

Hes not a reject or ex-con. So I doubt it.

He will serve you well if so, but i would prefer the transfer to talk to be after next Sunday.
Of course its different for the Bulls this year, they have had to talk about next season for several months now

Your offer of an unlimited supply of printer cartridges was too good to turn down. He is however 5 stone too light and 4 inches too small to play in your backline.

I may be wrong, but I seriously can't see this happening. Think he'd head back to Aus rather than joining anyone else.

I believe this rumour to be substantiated

I believe there will be a press release shortly confirming Shad finally gets the superleague shot he fully deserves.

Agree about Shad deserving his chance in SL. I'm sure he is good enough to grab his chance as well.

news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 008375.stm maybe this could be the reason? looks like they'll be needing another full back

royston deserves a shot at SL and dont think anyone at fax would deny him that chance, fans or officials.

Oh aye, he's been brilliant for Fax week in week out. Really does deserve a shot at the top.

YEAH BUT NOT AT SCUMFORD.

SURELY HE WOULD WANT TO GO TO A CLUB CONTESTING TROPHIES AFTER 2 GF'S IN 2 YEARS!

That's an inspired and witty nickname that it must have taken ages to come up with.

Turning the sarcasm off for the moment though, I do hope this is true as every time I've seen Royston play, he's looked quality. Only said last week that I'd love to see him at Bradford (while watching your game against Fev).

Also with the sarcasm turned off, good luck at Warrington next week. I know there's sometimes some bad feeling between our two sets of fans, but I for one always like to see Fax doing well too. Would be nice to see them upset the odds and beat Fev next weekend.

Thanks for the "good luck".

With the sarcasm meter still turned off, I would have no issue with Shad going to Bradford. As I do pop up at Odsal a few times a year it would be good to see him playing superleague there.

As long as he's not playing against us, I don't mind where he goes.

You are a secret Fax Fan and once you admit it you will feel much better

AWWWW THANK YOU!

IM GLAD YOU APPRICIATED IT.

SERIOUSLY THOUGH, IF HE DOES GO YOU BOYS YOU HAVE GOT ONE HELL OF A PLAYER.

SOLID AS A NUT!

PLEASE DONT MAKE HIM FAT THOUGH!



GET YE SEN TO WIRE NEXT WEEK AND DON THE BLUE AND WHITE FOR A DAY, IV ALREADY CONVERTED ONE BULLS FAN! MANY MORE TO FOLLOW!

I do pop along to the Shay every now and again when finances permit (or when they kindly let me in for nowt for being a Bulls season ticket holder!), as I live in Halifax now. But 30+ year of living in Bradford before it means actually donning a Fax shirt would be a step too far



I can't get to Warrington next week regardless, but I'll be watching on the telly and hoping you win. And if Royston is coming to us next year, him getting the winning try would also be nice

Can't think of a better way to leave. I have no qualms with Royston leaving for SL, he's been a class apart in this league for a few years and deserves his shot. He's given us one more year than we thought he would and he has become a Fax legend, 100 tries in 100 games says it all really.

have it written into contract that he cant play against us.

Shad's a class act and it would be great to see him turn on the magic in Super League. But, what are the overseas limits now in Super League? Is there room for him at the Bulls?

Won't be an issue, due to the length of time Shad has been in the UK, also I thought he had a British Wife

Hope you've pledged then



I reckon he'll be a very shrewd acquisition if true.

I've only seen him play at full-back, but he's been described as utility, where else does he play and what does he offer there?

centre or loose forward even but is really a class full back who makes it look effortless
