I notice neither the BBC, SportingLife or Sky Sports have reported this on their websites yet. I wonder if even they're thinking it's a prank....

If we managed to get Monaghan and a good stand off as well we really would have a team capable of challenging for a pot.

But surely we're running out of cap space to sign two quality players?

Doesn't seem to stop Wire....

And to think that James Graham still can't get a gig out there...



It will be interesting to see how he goes.

Cue the rush for the signing up of season tickets now this has been announced on deadline day....co-incidence....I think not!!!

Good Luck to him down under I was willing to take a clean slate with the guy but I can put it back on the roof now!!

Extraordinary piece of news I must say

There's either something about Worrincy that we've all missed, and will be nurtured by Matty Elliott - or else he has the best agent in the history of the game.

Good look to him though. Can't see anything other than him getting farmed out to a feeder club and never being hard of again... but who knows

Whatever we think of his ability, he does seem like a genuinely nice guy, so it's hard not wish him luck. Maybe we'll see him finally get the coaching that brings out that raw potential that we keep hearing about and this time next year he'll be playing in the Four Nations for England.

Ok maybe not, but stranger things have happened. Remember the time Worrincy got an NRL contract?

Thats almost of more importance TBF, whatever anyones thoughts on Worrincy he probably was not in line for a starting 17 spot, now if the same source says Hall is off, freeing up a quota space for a or 6 (I'm guessing) then that is interesting!

....I'd love a milky bar with my coffee I've just poured...mmmmm chocolate!

at the bottom of the t and a article, it's suggested that Hall might be leaving...

I hope he plays better in the NRL than he did for us, he may find it difficult but good luck to him

Amazing piece of transfer news.

Good luck to the lad.

Worrincy's tweet.

"@MurphyonBulls yeah mate I've seen sone of the fans thoughts sone nice some just don't have a clue but all same! Cheers mate"

Oh the irony....

Well I think it is fair to say that this is a good conclusion for both parties. Worrincy gets a once in a lifetime opportunity to sample a different lifestyle and a fresh challenge in his career. Training with players competing in the best RL comp can only be a good thing for his game. I don't expect to see him ripping up the NRL but I do wish him all the best.

As for the Bulls, well we free up some cap space in an area we seem fairly well stocked. The money freed up might well already be allocated to part funding a new signings or retaining a young player.

On a plane I reckon.

Good luck Mike and thanks for your efforts in Bulls' colours. It's a new start in new surroundings, grab it mate and all the best!

Well I never......

Dearie me - the NRL will be quaking in their shoes.

Good luck Mr Worrincy, hell of a move for you and I hope it works out. Sadly you just were nowhere near good enough for Bradford so where you will fit in in the NRL a mystery to me.

ANOTHER McNamara turkey is away though. Great news.

This is the best news all round. We get to offload a player who just hasn't cut the mustard for us, and he gets the chance to develop the skills that he is so obviously missing under arguably the best technical coaching system in the world. Win-win.

I've been critical of him, but I really do wish him all the best. He has all the physical attributes, so let's hope he can get the mental attributes to go with it, and we really could see a future England player.

Hmmm with Sheriffe, Worrincy and maybe Hall going the only problem is who the hell can we scapegoat next season?

Oh we'll find someone

Three players would be contenders if they are playing, Sykes, Halley or Godwin.*

However, you do raise an interesting point here as Reardon would have been another contender but he is away now too. Good to see so much utter dross shipped out.

* This does not neccessarily mean that that is my opinion of said players, just a general concensus.

Didnt the prvisional 25 man squad miss out Worrincy and Hall?

Could we read anyything into that as to what might be happening next?

The chap that broke the news about Worrincy also said Hall was to be offloaded. Another piece of good news if true IMHO.

The provisional 25 missed out Worrincy, but included Hall (as number 21).

Ah right. Cool.

Hmmmm.

Hall was given the 21 shirt - the shirt that has been 'retired' after Karl Fairbank used it. Seems odd that a player now rumoured to be leavng would be given a shirt number that he - presumably - isn't going to be permitted to use....

Or am I adding 2 and 2 together and getting 5 ?
