Only if you give em game time. Im not saying send a team of youngsters out but last season against Warrington highlighted the point perfectly when we were 40 points down & Macnamara gave Olbison hardly any game time.
Its not the 1st time its happened & the kids will only get better by playing at SL level

I absolutely agree that it would be great to see some academy products sat on the bench and getting a decent amount of game time.

We had our time in the light in the 60's just like your time in the light 10 years ago. Your a medium sized club now, just like Wakefield, only thing is 1 teams in decline the other is getting better every year.

Go on guess which teams which..

I guess we'll have to see if that decline is temporary or a 50 odd year decline then won't we? You've got a massive amount of improving before you'll get to where we've fallen from. So I am struggling to see what you have to gloat about!

Or Newton to Wakefield? Just as bad i'm afraid.

Lets see in a year or two, shall we? One swallow and all that, you know?

And to add to the observations of my learned friend BB above, I just wonder whether a fan of a team whose attendances dropped 13% (or whatever it was) last year DESPITE the team's performance, and whose club is on a warning from the RFL over its ground and with what appear to be unconvincing plans for addressing it, will be saying this in a year or so?

A little tip for you, my friend: its dead easy when you have had a good spell to turn on and ridicule a previous big beast at that time not enjoying its best spell. But before you do that, you really need to make sure your own house is not built on foundations of sand, but on foundations that will endure.

Oh and where's the 20,000 you used to get? Why is your attendances falling?

What's with the influx of Wakefield trolls?

Can't you stick to making your own board unreadable instead of doing it on ours too?

Go on, run along.

Yet another ..........

Remind me again when our averages were 20k? Or how many times we had a gate of 20k or more?

But you have done what so many others do when faced with an irrefutable argument - refused to address the point and sought to divert attention to a different question.

But I'll answer you - ours falling most likely because our performances on-field were worse than last year. What is YOUR excuse?

Not sure, but obviously not at Belle Vue.

We've never claimed to be a big club with big crowds, but as long as you keep taking players like Danny Sculthorpe, I don't think you'll be able to claim you are either!

Danny Sculthopre! Two year deal! Ha ha ha! Give McNamara a 10 year contract!

No. He hasn't been anywhere close to the player that represented Aus for some time now. I think we have enough gambles for one season already, I'd like to see our final quota spot being used on a genuinely classy player. Come on Bulls, let's make our final signing a good one!

Never been a very good player but would be a marque name.

no ta. weve got more than enough forwards now and last quota space must be used on a /winger imo. plus Im not sure he'd get a visa anyway.

Think you will still have a couple more to come in

we're assuming walker but their are no other big rumours.

If you know different and its a good player please please please tell us.



If its another "10 pages of negative posts thread in a day" type signings please please please keep it under your
