Blessed are the cheesemakers.

Anyone see Official Bulls latest follower? Danny Craven Pro RL Player Widnes Vikings

Has he been getting game time at Widnes?

I think so, has been injured lately, nothing serious.

Only while Mellor & Gilmore were injured. Both are now back, although a Widnes poster said on here the other day that Craven was currently nursing a minor injury himself.

blessed are the patient because they seemingly are the first to notice that we have two props on loan for the Sheffield game.

T&A seem to think we're getting Ted Chapelhow and Sam Brooks. Both props I think.
Should hopefully add some bulk up front which is definitely where we're short. I was really hoping we'd get Danny Walker too though, would be a great bench hooker to bring on. Ah well.

The burning and all important question is are they any good?

Probably better than bodies that we have not got I imagine.

Well, obviously, this is not meant to be taken literally. It refers to any manufacturers of dairy products.

Think Brooks was at Fax but didn't make it into their first team he's been at Whitehaven last year IIRC.

Chapelhow was also at Haven. He's a big lad.

I've no idea if they're any good. I'd be surprised if they're as good as Oledzki or Murray.

They signed Brooks from Whitehaven I think, then dual registered him back to them for some games last year. Both Chapelhow twins played on dual reg there last year too.

Id agree I doubt they'll be as good, but they are both better then the current empty squad places we need filling to play prop and we have a really important game on Sun.

I hate the DR system, and I would not be interested in following a club that makes long term use of it. But, we are in a hole and I'll take any short term assistance this season, so welcome on board to the 2 new lads from Widnes.

Yeah needs must this season.

But this season only.

Yeah I agree beggars can't be choosers, if we can scrounge Larroyer back on Sunday, we should have a fighting chance,
is the squad announced today?

I notice Sheffield have issued a statement saying Chissy will not play another game for them, nice to see they are still making sure he doesn't play for us..

always had a bit of a soft spot for them after their Wembley win against Wigan, now they have moved into the hate box with Halifax and Leeds...Sorry Roger

My dislike for Leeds has totally disappeared.

Agree, Bullseye.

Not that there ever was any real, "hate", to be honest. Obviously, I'd always go for 'my father's gun', with the rest of them, but it was just local rivalry, not "hate".

Have they, whereabouts is that please? I think I've missed that.

Was a sentence in the article about signing Paddy Flynn, saying he's likely played his last game for them

Its never nice or constructive to hold onto to "hate" and I dare say since leaving SL my hate for Leeds has dwindeled,

The webbed toed hill dwellers from Halifax have brought on a fair deal or hate from me towards them, with their revelling in our dire situation.
The chissy situation that we are facing with Sheffield and listening to their fans calling for Campbell's legs to be broken and general abuse at Odsal would say I have a strong dislike for them..

However a few deep breaths and listening to some whale music in the background in my office and I will be fine..
Maybe I will try some Buddhist meditation techniques too..

Obviously my like for Sheffield has increased lately. I can't see why people should blame Sheffield though. You can't just try take someone else's player though can you. Hes obviously still their player even though he's never gonna play for them after what he's done. He obviously was never a free agent otherwise the RFL would of had this sorted. If the Bulls had a disciplinary issue with a player and they were not gonna pick him again what would we say if Dewsbury came and said we want that player and if you don't let us have him we will not be happy and hope our fans turn against you

You Bulls fans are a strange bunch ha

I would have been more than happy if other clubs would have come in and taken Gaskell and co last year...

You know as well as I do Roger he got sacked so was a free agent...because it was you that told me before it came out!

Whether he did that on purpose or not is between him and Sheffield for breaching his contract.

If a Super league club had signed him and not someone in the relegation fight I'm sure the story would be different.

If the Bulls get relegated I think they should send Sheffield a bill for spoiling their chances of staying up, it's only fair I think

Ah, so it's not actually Sheffield commenting, just the reporter mentioning it in context to a new signing. Ta.
