You couldn't afford to play these games in isolation at Headingley

Anyone in the 19’s good enough to step up fill in/ take their chance if Sezar or Austin are missing. Great opportunity for two young players next year to be 3rd and 4th choice halfs.

Not to my mind yet mate. The best ones are Kai Morgan and Jack Sinfield but both are under-done physically. Much more likely we’d use first graders Myler, Leeming, Sutcliffe as cover.

Has Corey Johnson been playing 7 at York this last season, maybe thats another option if needed.

Ben Shiels has left the club to join Sheffield Eagles.

Good for him. Much nearer to home. Kid used to travel for hours to get to Leeds on the train from Derbyshire. Hes at Sheff Uni now so perfect move for him.

Good luck to him.

Coby Nichol and Ajahni Wallace join Bradford Bulls from Leeds Rhinos

Sounds like permanent deals, albeit 1 year initially.

Fair enough, both good players but maybe not with quite enough going for them at this stage in their careers.

Good signings for Bradford though.

Sounds like some tough calls being made behind the scenes this off-season.

Thought you was Championing AJ for a 1st team spot next year Jimbo?

I thought he might get an appearance or two yes, but looks like the club agrees with you that he’s just not got the frame for it.

Or maybe Muizz is too similar a type but more experienced.

Either way good luck to him at Bulls.

Very interesting times ahead for the U18s with the fixtures being confirmed as well as Reserve fixtures.

Both only 18 so it’s a big call to make but with no under 20’s the pathway isn’t ideal. Hope they both go well at the Bulls
