| We resign Cusack taking up an overseas quota spot yet we so nearly signed Andy Lynch why not offer him a bit more and we could have him, does long stints and could have done better job than Yak
Do we have any scouts abroad
Bradford use Brian smith down under for players
Morgan has his agent on for him
Why can't we have someone keeping an eye out
Why have we left half a million unspent on this years salary cap
Im pi$$ed off btw

He's one of the most professional, hard working and loyal players we have. If all the players had his attitude, we'd be in a much better position.
He executes his role within the team well, it's some of the forwards around him, the interchange policy and the crap strategy that are the problems.'"
Completely agree with his effort etc but that is not enough for international standard
for me he is a average prop who would get no where near international level now; ok he is a grafter and an 80 minute prop but i think Maloney could do a better job than him

Or how about he is getting flogged to death every match now that Cusack is out injured.......he was on fire at the start but is getting played too much.

I agree, SL's moved on from these one dimensional workhorses
he's done a great job for the club in the past, but we have to make drastic changes to move forward.

Agar's interchange 'policy' doesn't help him I agree

Are you implying he's not SL standard?
Maloney has played about 6 SL games, Dowes has been a stalwart in our side since 2005 (the glory year ), he is not the problem, and I think we'd miss him the most if he was to get injured.
We cant afford to pack our team with 4 international quality props, which team has this at the moment?
All clubs need a Dowsey character, we just dont compliment his style of play with the rampaging type of prop forward that other teams have.

Has been poor for a couple of seasons and copped a bad injury last season......he knew he had dipped and went on that course so he knew he had to do something and it helped...unlike others who think its better to go in Parkers.

Agree, I dont think we need both of them, although at the start of the season they were awesome, they just got burned out with poor interchange policy.
I think sometimes, because people dont see him break 100's of tackles, scatter defenders and make huge amount of yards, they think he's average. He's never been that sort of player, and thats not his role in the team. The role he's been given he's very good at.

its more the fact we have too many of that type of player though
Radford, Dowes, Cusack, Tickle, G Horne...all do the 'tackles all game' thing, but offer little in attack.

Strange one that........Tickle offers a lot in attack to me but is being overplayed.....runs some good angles but no bugger passes him it and at least he trys a off-load.

Maybe if we actually tried something with the ball, theyd be more efective? We know what Tickle can do, he's capable of running good angles etc, Cusacks legendary try vs Wigan from Dowsey's pass . Radders shouldnt be at LF, Horne I dont think we need. All boils down to the crap coaching once again, however, i think Dowes should be way down the list of people to get rid of.
Regards,
Ewan.

| Heard a rumour that seems to be doing the rounds amongst Rovers and Bradford fans today.
According to them Raynor to Bradford at end of season and Fox to Hull.
How credible I dont know as I dont know these people from adam.

We need rid of the players who are causing a negative impact on the club off the field which some say tickle is.

Id say we need to get rid of the players who are not having a positive impact on the field first, while nobody is standing out at the moment I think Tickle is capable of offering that little bit more then some of the others in the squad.
