Having 4 centres getting Tindall would make us alot more balanced, maybe a signing from Salford could also be an option as weonly need myers wage to pY for tindall

Have they really, depends on who knew about the Adult Protection Team report of April 2024, it would be difficult to imagine that the player and his associates were not interviewed in the report process, would you expect that the player could have discussed the allocations with his agent or even team mates or the club welfare officer. Is it a bit of a stretch to think that everyone at the Bulls was oblivious to the fact that player was the subject of the above report to the extent that he was retained on a two year contract extension in August 2024 some five months after the April Adult Protection Team report.

Appo maybe hasn't told the club as they weren't aware of this and the police/protection unit aren't going to tip off when an active investigation is under way.

From a purely RL view it is a big loss to the side and one who we will need to replace. Obviously massively disappointing to see a player who was held in such high regard amongst the supporter base charged with such serious offences.

There have been a few high profile NRL players going through the same and eventually ending up with no case or not guilty. So we won't know the reasoning behind the CPS decision until the court case. But its very disappointing and good on the Club for exercising the clause which is written into all modern day sports contracts, which while it looks delayed they have to wait until it becomes public by the Authorities to avoid prejudging the case and possible legal action by both sides

Even if Bradford knew about the allegations they were correct to postpone any action until he was charged in my opinion, as the CPS feel they have evidence to support a prosecution. I feel Bradford have acted professionally and responsibly in this instance.
