Very good signing for them.

He made a good impression when replacing Ballin in the WCC game at Elland Road.

Think he's used as an interchange hooker over there. Not seen him for ages but I thought he looked pretty good (maybe he just had an awesome game that one time I did see him though)

But as we all know, anyone from the NRL is better than anyone in SL anyway.

He's about 10 years too young for a Bulls signing too

what the hell they playing at..

Sounds like a decent move by the Bulls then.. but depends on how he settles i suppose now. He sounds up for it, but i wonder once he gets to the dump that is Bradford he may change his mind

Bet the shirt printers have a field day with his name. It'll be a bit odd seeing it on the back of shirts

It's conjuring up a 'Visage' in my mind.

Fade to grey!!!

Think he's a good signing and no doubt coming on the recommendation of 'Beaver' Menzies.

has the beaver signed a further year at Dulls?

He has I think. Morrison is rumoured to be leaving though

what a WAG he has

I know. He's a regular at work. Saw Scruton the other day. Got a pony tail. Glad we got rid now

I have it on VERY good authority that a number of 'key personnel' at the bulls have been told they are allowed to leave the club. A few shocks in there as well!

sam burgess needs to get to leeds or saints.

What was he thinking extending his contract with the bulls?

and the 2 younger burgess brothers?

Deary me today.

lets get team burgess to headingley to join big bro lukey

It may surprise a few but not that many imo emm.
Something has/had to be done if they have any ambition of being in contention again,i'd like to GH jump in with big money offer for burgess and test their resolve.

A new coach would be at the top of my list.

Or is that just stating the flipping obvious.

He won't go to another SL club if he does go, and he's stated he'll honour his current contract.

They like it here?

Bradford are reaping the Noble approach to youth development, hence they're having to fill their side with mediocre and pensioner Antipodeans.

It'll happen to Wigan in two or three years, once the young players there have found themselves forced out of the side.

I said the same thing last week. Wigan have something like 9 non british players in their squad. and wasn't it only a couple of weeks ago they feilded a totally non british back line... mmmm i wonder why they've had very little success of late....

Seconded. Been a while since we've splashed the cash on a big signing, i sense the time is right to do it again.

Not gonna happen.
