Somebody messing around, we couldn't afford him, wouldn't attempt to sign him and wouldn't get a working visa with charges of assault hovering around his name.

Sounds like he's got some much needed attacking ability but the injuries are a worry. Still not sure where we play him either.

Yep it's put Macca off him now. He's turned his attentions to Folau.

Agree about 1 and 3...#2 came with a decent rep though (the best of the 3 signed that year) but never really settled and after the first match never really lived up to the promise, did he?

I take your point.
Although, literally launching Long over the line to score in that first game was worth it!!

The match that was postponed cos of the snow IIRC? That unfortunately was his high point of the season. I think it came across that he didn't like it much over here?

| Quote ="Spannerz"Personally a more experienced assistant and a fresh approach on the fitness/conditioning. Quite a few players look like they spend too much time on the weights and not enough on cardio. Fresh ideas and tactics and a proper use of rotation, not just the bench but the squad as a whole and we may just see some inprovements. But what do I know?

just give me a year and then Id happily do it. Hope there is a vacancy in a year when Clawson's contract is up.

I quite like Gibson. If we aren't getting Millard, I'd take him. If we are getting Millard though, it seems a bit pointless having another centre when we'll have Sykes and Crookes in the squad already.
I'd rather have Gibson than Sykes, but Sykes is already contracted.
One thing people seem to forget too is that Gibson can play as a makeshift hooker, so he's not a bad player to have in the squad.

So you rate Gibson but not Tansey?
The fact that he couldn't hold down right centre in a Leeds team desperate for someone to fill that position speaks volumes. Many have doubted whether he has the pace or size to be a centre, and despite some nice passes to his wingman his defence has been awful for us. If McNamara wants to tighten Bradford's defence out wide next season then Gibson would probably not be a good signing. He's had very little game time at hooker to prove that he could make it there, and he's been incredibly injury prone which has impeded his development at Leeds.

We don't want anymore injury prone players, thank you very much.

| Quote Cronulla Sharks full-back Brett Kearney claims he held talks with Wigan before deciding on a move to Bradford for next season.
"I've all but signed for the Bulls," he said. "I spoke to Wigan and Celtic, but I knew I wanted to join the Bulls when I spoke to coach Steve McNamara."'"
Why does everybody apparently want to come here because of Macca? Anyway, looks like he has signed, i'll reserve judgement of him till I see him play. I think Macca may be planning to shift Halley to wing and use Sykes as stand-off, which would be extremely unfair on Halley imo.

If he ends up playing outside Millard I reckon he'll be dancing in the streets.

NEW 7

| WHy does everyone seem happy with Sykes being our starting standoff, IMO its a bad step he has been woeful this year and although granted he performed slightly better in the middle of the park having him as anything more than a backup for other positions is a yet another step backwards
