Agree - player of the year for me. Been a fantastic singing for us.

Why would we not keep him, i thought he was on a 2 year deal

He's been the best 'Fax player for years, bloody nice bloke as well.

The sort of player that makes you think - what would we do without him. Plays his heart out each game, for example today not only did he put a great kick in, he was the only one chasing it down and he ended up dropping the Batley player behind his own sticks. Just a class act.

Ive got to agree , some australian players come over for a holiday but you cant say that about branno, he has put 110% in all year.

I said it on another post and i think the fact he isnt a new player this year is acting as a negative for him but for me shad has been absolutely fantastic this season, he will be a massive loss and would stroll into any team in this league.

last year we all wanted a player like him and MH and MC got us the best.

Agree 100%, best signing since Ben Fisher,

Nah he is okay but the best player since SL was Ben Fisher, top bloke that.

Spoke to Luke after the game and he is on a 1 yr deal, hasn't been offerred anything for next year and sadly even confessed he doubted he would be here next year - Same apparently goes for a number of the first team squad due to finances and yes even those on 2 year deals. we will be looking to consolidate financially ala 2003.

Not negative just posting what I was was told. Said player was Stanley Gene in the South Stand lounge after the Hunslet game and he is no longer at the club for allegedly shouting his mouth off a few too many times.

Get a grip Nat it is a message for FFS.

I spoke to ALL the players last night at Hartshead Services. They said that the club have told them if they step foot in the Shay stadium after October 4th they'll all be shot dead with a special single bullet.

Next year the club are going after yoof. They've signed up a selection of primary school children.

We'll still beat Widnes though.

Thats all that matters!!!

What does? Shooting the squad, having a yoof team or beating Widnes?

...............or coming on here with your shoe shine Johnny revelations? Just enjoy the season ffs.

I don't remember saying in my last post I wasn't enjoying the season??

Just get a grip man . . . . . . I posted something on a message board which a player openly disgussed in front of half a dozen supporters. Because it mentions something that none of us like to hear I get lambasted!!

I think many on here need to get a grip......Its not negative its just the life and times of Halifax RLFC and the rollercoaster we all ride each week.

I suppose Shad saying over the microphone that he desperatley needs a knee op but the club can't afford to get him one is breaching this boards disciplinary procedures and he is being too negative??

Get a grip man.
