If we are using the Burgess money for transfers (can anyone scan it in or type it) then why not put in a big offer for Eastmond ? For reasons (i think) Bullpower mentioned.

Would people be happy to see Pryce back at the club? Whether that be at 6, 13 or perhaps centre? His form seems to have nosedived according to Saints fans, problems adjusting to the new coach or just coincidence?

I'd take him back, but not on a massive contract. I'd take him as a centre as I'd like to see Kearney get a go at 6. I don't think he'd return to play in the centres as thats partly why he left though.

Both the young Burgess brothers moving into the first team for next season, as said by Luke Burgess at Leeds Rhinos Homecoming ceremony.

A year early I would have thought, but if theyre good enough.....etc
Be brill if they were but have my doubts.

That'll be good for our sponsor a player

.


From watchiong them i'd have said next year aswell, but would be good to have them in for cover and also if we are going to be short on props they may get a go.

If there's nobody of sufficient quality available, then it looks like we'll give youth a chance, can' argue with that.

I fancy they`ll still play far more in reserves/academy but a squad number and the training with the first team bodes well for the future.

Think he may have been mentioned on this thread...

Bloody hell, this is p155ing me off now. Does noone want to come to us or what? Do we have any money or not? What exactly are we doing?

What does it say about Bradford if he wants to sign at Celtic? We're doomed!

cant say im too bothered about missing out on that one tbh. hes not really done anything for a few years and I'd imagine celtic are having to pay through the nose for him. If we could have got him for a reasonable amount fair enough but this smacks of a NRL star coming to top up his retirement fund.

Thought you'd engaged mystic messiah mode there!



Celts' wealthy owner has obviously been putting his hand in his pocket - how else could they have recruited (and paid for the relocation of) the coaching team they did - and Celts anyway had some big holes in the playing staff to fill. Not sure how much this guy would have cost though...maybe not as much as some think?

After all, had we signed him (and it was only ever yet another rumour/wish list started - on here?) imagine the inevitable outcry at us signing a player not that far off 30 who had (IIRC) only had two brief stints of the bench for the Dogs all season?

To be fair, we were never actually linked with signing Utai. I merely mentioned that he was out of contract not that the Bulls wanted to sign him!

Is it just me or are the squad announcements much later than usual this year? (Or just that some real positive signing news is overdue) Isn't it normally all done and dusted and eeked out in to the T&A the week after the GF latest?

Talk to the Home Office about the reasons?

I think Bulls fans need to accept your no longer a top side and that big name players don't want to play for you anymore.

And Celtic are a top side then ?

I've been told that George Burgess is the best player in the family - anyone who has seen him agree or not with that statement?

He's definitley got bags of potential, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see him in the England team in 3 or 4 years. Not sure about that though, toss up between him and Sam.

That the RFL don't pay our players' wages?

I was under the impression both have bags of potential.

However, this doesn't always translate to superstar.

As you will discover once you lose your franchise.

No he isn't he's 3rd.

Is one of the other two Sam's Mum?



. . . . . . . Didn't she play for the ladies team out of Dudley Hill?

IIRC she played for the GB team also
